limited edition of 500 heavy weight 180g 12 inch vinyl.
landing as the second release from the new french label clekclekboom recordings, young newroller coni drops us sensitive, deep but yet powerful tracks with sensual rnb reworks that would make any female moan. combining groovy sophisticated house and naughty/soulful bass on the lead track >luz in pool<, the parisian takes us to a delightful journey where you will be losing yourself. on the flipside, >suma< is mixing up an uplfiting 90s rnb vocal with a very effective uk funky drum line. the laid back g-swagger >crush< favoring a modern half-tempo 808 rhythm with a sweet subtle voice adding to a haunting purple synth coloration. this 3 track ep is full of heaviness and is already listed as favorite by many established big names. this number is not to be missed!

tamed music had a flying start with their debut release (ft one of our favorite ripperton tracks and topped with a fresh skudge remix!). and no disappointment for the second release either! ripperton comes with another vocal track (vocals by van hai) that is more house orientated as the previous release, but still has that nice moody laidback vibe of the tmq001. almost dubby feel combined with the gentle voice of van hai makes it a standout release. comes with hot remix action of margaret dygas and iron curtis. sweet package ... expected to sell out as rapidly as the the first tamed music!

alex and bill met 16 years ago when bill signed one of alex s first productions (is this the rhythm? by rhythmnvibe) to a new york label he was running. alex, whose father lives in the us, was a regular visitor to the states and they sent many happy hours together hanging out at the sound factory bar and comparing maw dubs. when bill returned to the uk in 1996, they had a few sessions together making house music, though neither of them can remember why they never finished anything or, indeed, what became of the tracks. fast forward a few years and they finally got back into the studio to make sweet music together under the moniker hotel motel. since then they have created a rich seam of work that some have already described as, like salvador dali with his pants down being fellated by deirdre barlow. few would disagree.

another epic seahawks voyage and this time theyre heading for the deep ocean of outer space. the results have been likened to the klfs chill out album performed by astroanuts. yep its that spacey but theres plenty of baked groove excursions along with the cosmic dinner jazz. imagine that instead of creating yah mo be there, michael mcdonald and james ingram hopped aboard a spaceship captained by sun ra and set the controls for alpha centauri. somewhere between the sea of tranquillity and the red heat of mars they find a party going on, klaus schulze is jamming with chic and peter frampton, kenny loggins is on bongos and the horn section from the doobie brothers are blowing soft and sweet but mike and jim have taken a whole lot of mind bending psychotropics and the music sounds like nothing theyve ever heard before. you are entering the seahawks universe, let your mind roam free. to ensure premium audio fidelity, the lp was mastered at abbey road and pressed at vinyl factory. as ever the artwork is beautiful and the edition is limited so get your skates on!

cobblestone jazz are back after the highly successful memories ep with their second installment in the series. on the a side, we find the spaced-out zero-gravity jam lunar lander - its sparse and jittery beats complimented by some sweet key stabs and a thick and burly analogue bassline. flip it over for your life (you re life) - an uptempo slugfest of crunchy beats and a driving bassline that wont quit. as always, both tunes were recorded live in studio and have been culled and edited for your mixing pleasure (a side duties performed by tyger dhula while the flip was done by danuel tate). stay tuned for the next installment, and, until then, enjoy!

>call me< is a welcome dose of precisely what we all need right now: a brilliant ray of sunny electro disco to warm up our winter dancefloors. dj nibc, the berlin-based, gothenburg-born dj, producer and trunkfunk records label owner has joined forces with fellow swedish house cat patrick l for a collaborative effort that offers a fresh, playful and breezy take on deep disco grooves. the dj nibc mix rides a languid summer afternoon tempo, accompanied by shimmering light beams and sweet synth chords, rising to a peak of uplifting strings and soulful vocals that weave around the tracks core retro melody. the patrick l mix gives the full polyphonic treatment, shifting the filtered strings to the intro, intensifying the bass, and using subtle punchy cut-ups in contrast with patricks crystal-clear vocal treatment. fellow swede tiger stripes completes the trio of countrymen, with a tiger stripes remix that moulds the track into an urgent dancefloor cut, emphasising an irresistible bass melody, a thudding kick drum, and classic house stabs of synths and voice. londons newest simmering hot creations signee funnels even more sunshine into his rework, as the crea albas lost soul remix splays out the the tracks high hats and fills all available spaces with arcs of retro synths and cosmic reverb.

after few months of research the rks duo is now ready for a new sound experience.
back in the day is the way and the house funky producers based in berlin are trying to do it compromiseless. >sunny moments< is a complete deep house raw track, the sweet voice that comes from the past works in a loveliness drum machine game with a synth that runs like the detroit school teaches!
>the dancer from san francisco< is a short funk gem that hits the brain and makes you move your feets, the samples play well, like the rks production wants!
>there was summer< is a detroit minded track, the pad play into an hypnotic synth game, a flight into space, a complete hi-tech experience.

after the highly successful sunshine reworks #1 (still going strong - big thank you!) soulshare is back with two more deep disco gems in this solid series.
first up and we are once again at prelude for a sweet beefed up version of the classic soul boogie shuffler love fever. pitching things up with reconstructed vocals, added layers and killer drums, dean ignites a deep disco flavor to this track! rounding things off with more retrospective hands-in-the-air pianos its another storming anthemic floorfiller - already getting serious support from some of the key players!
flip over and track two is a deep n dubby trip with tamiko jones fave let it flow. dean takes this killer groove and adds echos, effects, drums and vocals to create a deep disco groover that keeps you shuffling till the end! with a joyous percussive overlaying finale this track is perfect for todays deeper floors. another solid release from dean and his sunshine reworks series. getting big support from the likes of ashley beedle, eric duncan, yam who, pbr streetgang, luke una etc...

our next release on the kolour mother-ship features rising canadian talent the noodleman. he laces us with an absolute picturesque, low-slung deep house affair that, for us, is one of those sweet-spot tunes.
for remix duties, we leave no stone unturned as we bring back a familiar face & proudly welcome in two new ones.

it is a great honor for us to welcome such a living legend, a pioneer from the chicago house scene: mr k alexi shelby ! at the age of 12 he was already moving in the right circles, befriending frankie knuckles and ron hardy whilst frequenting the famous warehouse. his upbringing in chicago in the 70s and 80s meant that he was exposed to a range of genres and different styles of music including stevie wonder, prince, curtis mayfield and david huff. these same names would prove to be the roots of his influences. for his first collaboration with syncrophone, k alexi delivers a sublime set of new unreleased tracks + a new edit of his classical my medusa previously released in 1989, here called my sweet mf. year 2011, mr k alexi shelby is definitely back for a future classix

off we go and leave the cannibals all empty. the skies are lowering into the sea. gently pushed by stones we wonder/wander on. somewhere behind a rainbow, apartment houses quietly suspire their berlin. the cheeky spirit is pinching the nose with zest. watch them trip and do the mashed morale. we dance with them, but not for long. spirits are holding the upper hand again. still we miss a beat with a heart still strong. noisy colors all blending in one blue. i sit with you where the citys down low. we know no wrong in the sound of a song. down tumble waters rise behind our backs. the pointy poets heads hat breaks in two unlike the jesters scepter whos mad with magics saving factor. we wander on, stroll to and fro things weigh us out, no con, no pro, unlike the jesters saving factor we stick around too long a-go. down tumble waters rise behind our backs. the meek musicians heads hat breaks in two unlike the jesters scepter whose magics not an urban factor. strike up the band, play on and on for sweet sage music always wins just like the jesters magic scepter beats up and down, forgives all sins. this is when you come stepping in. a row of tender houses smash your knees. the skies are lowering some more. existences twitching here and there. rain reflects berlins icy glow: a frisking spirit on the tip of your nose. we dance with him for quite some time. no stopping a hand that holds up in a work. no missing a beat for a heart goes on. flamboyant whispers strike a chord back home. you come to me, im not alone, in the sound of a song we know no wrong

seit seiner ersten veröffentlichung auf bpc vor drei jahren pflegt thomas einen unverwechselbaren sound, dessen eigenwillige und detailverliebte soundgestaltung den eindruck stetiger bewegung bei gleichzeitigem stillstand vermittelt. die daraus resultierende spannung erweckt eine ebenso unwiderstehliche wie eigenartig anmutende, maschinenhafte lebendigkeit. während thomas sein klangliches markenzeichen auf vergangenen eps und remixen - u.a. für telefon tel aviv und cormac - perfektioniert und etabliert hat, stösst er nun mit jedem track seiner aktuellen ep >neurones< neue türen auf.

produced by close friend black coffee, the original mix provides a suitably deep and meaningful platform for bantwinis heartfelt lyrics about phony relationships and, in turn, his soulfully immaculate delivery. lush afro-edged rhythms lead into smart bursts of trumpet, cool double bass-lines and stirring rhodes solos - a rich musical weave more than amplifying bantwinis performance.
a wealth of stylish remixes skilfully widens wasting my times dancefloor appeal. gallic house sophisticate rocco ups the tempo, cracking whip-smart beats against thumping kick drums and infectious metallic key stabs, as does paris kingpin dan ghenacia, thanks to a fiesty vocal remix and dub fusing gothic mood and jack-happy sass in fine style. ghenacias versions have already, in fact, become a thunderous week-in-week-out staple of his ibizan circo loco residency at dc10 this summer. elsewhere, real tone main man franck roger offers a neat, dubby riff on black coffees original production, injecting sweet balafon melodies and additional percussive pep.

laura nyro (* 18. oktober 1947 als laura nigro in new york city, † 8. april 1997 in danbury, connecticut) war eine us-amerikanische sängerin und songautorin. ihr wird von kollegen und musikkritikern großer einfluss auf die popmusik der späten 1960er und der 1970er jahre zugeschrieben, wobei das breite publikum sie eher als songwriter, die fachwelt sie eher als sängerin und pianistin wahrnahm.

excellent fresh & warm ambient techno, incl free cd version of the album inside

astroblack is a prime time techno / techhouse monster , flipside more for the house business .... no need to present tony lionni (aesthetic audio, mule, freerange, ostgut, mad house...) one of the best artists of these past years, able to flirt as easily with house as with techno. modelisme is very proud to release >astroblack ep<, proper underground ep in a typical detroit vein. astroblack on a side, is a pure black soul funky detroitish techno music, powerfull chords on powerfull groove, swinging drums patterns, where the essential duty is to shake the dancefloor. b side, proposes >i can show you<, very class beatdown track, could be related to some theo parrish imprints. sweet & tuff for a so sexy tune! >oceano<, is a subtle kick reduced floating & atmospherical tune, which shows his intellectual side of his music. thank you sir!

repress 2015

its been a long wait but finally 501 returns with yet another bigtime 12inch that will roll out punches even more than mike tyson! fresh off his release from never say die sees 501 twisting it differently this time.. >gist< is a vocal infused stomper that opens the 12inch perfectly and sees 501 leaning into a swagger tip. it flows, it rocks, it jumps its everything in 1. it shows a different side to the standard 501 sound and shows he can bend any way he would like to. you can hear that in the b side >borderline< where he exchanges the sweet vocals of gist for a psychotic quote and the swagger lean for some ear shattering kicks & snares. hear borderline destroy your eardrums like the good old days with some sub! nothing beats the old fashioned heavyweight sound! another essential 501 record!

more sample based detroit influenced deepness from label head scott ferguson. two sexy & seductive mixes of >sweet to you< plus two more hauntingly beautiful head-nodders. mr. ferguson still has a sound of his own… solid!

pizza is the 6th release on dont be afraid, coming hot on the heels of mr. beatnicks synthetes ep and semteks west acyd shelter. the first track on the 12 inch, pizza, combines disco, techno and acid house elements on a broken funky base. goons is a mean little track with caper-like 303s and a bumping trumpet bassline, backed by sweet drum machine beats. dj 3000 takes the fundamentals of the original and replaces them with some of his own locally sourced detroit ingredients, including a euphoric rhodes and some rich pads, to create a peak time banger for fans of dirty bird and the like.

the new age sound of frankfurt! hot on the heels of massimiliano pagliaras praised album debut focus for infinity youll find a neat 12inch of top-quality remix action. first up, frankfurts version of a young peter daou aka phillip lauer (arto mwambe, brontosaurus) and running backs gerd janson (who spend a big deal of his youth trying to perfect a weak bobby konders mimicry) team up as tuff city kids. offering two takes, pagliaras >a wrong chance< gets split into a sweet layer cake of bass, synths, strings and for those who are faint at heart, an additional riddim version provides hidden acid fantasies. upside down, oliver hafenbauer and christian beisswenger (arto mwambe fame again) keep on exploring their sharp electro funk under their b.h.v.f moniker. with a playtime that exceeds nine minutes, you get right twists and wicked turns and most of all sounds unheard. modern music with an old-fashioned style of lovin.

blue skies and late nights, camp fires and cheap delights and whisky drained straight from the jar. in a hammock slung below a sky of dreams and sea of stars lay a pop princess and a hip hop pioneer, arms entwined and eyes locked into each others stare they whisper sweet – nothings to each other, >you re flash< he says >take it slow< she purrs back >and dont even dont think about going down under!< a mile or two out to sea, floats what has come to be known as a mega-yacht. aboard his life like an episode of mtv cribs but with more parties and less gold-encrusted pool tables. surrounded by beauties by the bevy and sipping on gin and juice, duff scans the horizon with his telescope (solid platinum, encrusted with diamonds, built in infa red) and spies young love or a new hope. smiling to himself he thinks >they look different, younger perhaps at least changed, if not for the better but changed at least which is surely a good thing<. he turns to the girls on the boat, one hand pointing to the shore and the other raising his drink to the sky he shouts >i helped create that<.

limited coloured vinyl pressing. one of my big favourite instra tunes is vicodin (released with lets talk – a dark, foreboding dubstep classic) and it gets a makeover by skudge who are getting mentions everywhere right now. check this track, even the waveform looks f***in dark! skudge warp it into something between dubstep and house but with all the downer-rhythm that really makes this track. along with the remix theres more from boddika in grand prix. short and sweet little hypnotic bounce track with serious dancability.

following 2009s sizzler >caribbean girl< man of the moment mario basanov returns to under the shade for more heat! utilizing the sticky sweet vocal talents of miss bee >just think about< is a summer scorcher thatll have you reaching for the speedos! remixes come courtesy of art of tones, social disco club & mirror people and marios own dub mix

upon you records has finally reached the big five-o thats right - 50! regular releases old, and to celebrate we are inviting you into our musical swinger club. while our upon you artists usually work their way up to a musical orgasm on their own, this time they have doubled up for a nice old gangbang of massive proportions. gunnar stiller and marcus meinhardt are tag teaming on a1 with their little winner >feinherb< and are leaving out the foreplay and get straight down to it. then we have nico stojan and the cheapers who are finger banging the buttons and levers for >railroad< on a2. flipping the side over we find our dutch-danish buddies onno and mathias mesteno and let the puppets dance to some sweet house beats with the track >puppets<. finishing of this vinyl masterpiece are marco resmann and ruede hagelstein with >monday<, once again proving how tender they can be if necessary, blowing out the last candles with a touch of saxophone.

already receiving big support from peter van hoesen, norman nodge, marcel fengler, perc, brendon moeller, len faki, laurent garnier and more. following the recent success of his starting over ep on belgian tastemakers curle, matt heads home to off-key to release his strongest work to date.
first track >bloom< whispers sweet nothings in your ears while shimmering synths caress your neck and skipping percussion dances around your groin. unable to resist, you let yourself go and >without warning< spikes your drink, drags you into a filthy warehouse rave and leaves you grinning maniacally under a flickering strobe light.

manila fine vinyls is the label project created by edo arengi (shadow sync) back in 2010 to bring out that soulful side of techno we all love. unlike some freaks you can hear around nowadays, the manila fine vinyls productions have their roots in the original detroit sound: no frills, no virtual mockeries, just the full and deep analog sound that goes straight to your heart. music is a matter of substance, not of decorations! this second release includes two brand new tunes produced at the barricade, edos studio located in the heart of berlin. more feelings, with its electric piano chords and the moog bass line, is a well balanced blend of a fat groove and sweet azmospheres. techno with a little touch romanticism! i want to believe, a deeper tune built around a powerful, hypnotising sh-101 line with a delightful slide, is opened by touching string chords and grows as the various percussive elements are added creating a thicker rhythmic texture. its unsophisticated music, its the original spirit of techno.
