rumpelmusig, das neue label von rumpelmeister kalabrese, geht in die nächste runde und macht da weiter, wo es mit dem kalabrese longplayer independent dancer aufgehört hat. hello asshole kommt mit knusprig-swingendem groove daher, der fast schon ein breakbeat ist und es rauscht vorzüglich im sounddesign. das kafi-lied auf der b-seite ist eine liebeserklärung an das kaffeetrinken, sich zeit nehmen am morgen und mit einer moody stimmung in den tag starten. sarah palin, die sängerin des rumpelorchesters, verleiht dem song mit ihrer stimme die kraft, um über allem zu strahlen und um sich gleich am morgen leidenschaftlich in den tag zu stürzen und zu verlieben. dance pop vom allerfeinsten!

die vinyl-lp erscheint inklusive cd-version des albums.

reissue of the only album by czech / german duo die partei. originally released in 1981 on the tausend augen label.

opening up the release is *der groove günther*, a stripped back bit of rubbery, supple techno. the groove sure is infectious, but it’s the way its detailed with such curious sounds – metal twangs, squelchy chords, icy hi-hats – that makes it so engaging. on the remix, tinush reimagnes the track as an even weirder thing. it’s all about micro-evolving details, subtle and inherent funk and keen sound design that is part shiny and stiff at the same time as being elastic and bendy.
the first vinyl pressing is a limited golden seal edition!

played by sven väth im boiler room! vinyl only! vinyl runs from the inner side to the outer side like the old nsc cuts from back in the days. pure detroit house and techno. this track was made possible by my good friends blake baxter >the prince of techno<, greg stafford from b.a.m and the soulful gospel singer quwona >dee dee< toney who truly loves the lord. santonio is very well known from his releases on kms or network. together with reese (kevin saunderson) he wrote techno history and delivered some of the most important techno tracks which tag the revolution of techno music. santonio licensed tracks to tresor records in berlin, react records, infonet, express, network, bpm recording, and random recordings in belgium.

saulty and bradka, the two behind vilnius based downtown party network tag team, combine together more than 10 years of dj and production experience. their original productions have been signed by eskimo, loud east, bear funk. their remix work has been commissioned by pete herbert, kolombo, main stem, deadstock 33s, tj kong & nuno dos santos and even sander kleinenberg. their gig geography ranges from london to dubai. which doesnt give even a tiny shadow of doubt on their musical credibility and ability to rock the party. here they deliver the first single of another kind for best kept secret - killer bass line combined with irresistible jazz chords on a side and some metro areaish stripped down funkiness on b side. dance music machinery at its best. best kept secret - hidden sounds of vilnius house scene uncovered & presented by vidis.

faze action have never been comfortable with the nu disco tag, and in an age where its dominated by digitally designed and somewhat pedestrian in its tempo the lee brothers return with a dynamic live sound that sets them apart. freak for your love is the lead track from their forthcoming album information overload and straddles a sick dubbed out punk funk groove that brings to mind the sort of incessantly sweat inducing music dfa was releasing in the labels first few years. a pleasant new direction for faze action is explored further on the accompanying new wave disco dub mix that delves further into the realm of echo and delay over that strident groove. the mysterious st holds court on the flip with two rerubs that switch the emphasis up towards a throwback bumping 90s house flex without loosing the originals charm

exceptional debut album!!early support by groove magazine, resident advisor, oliver hafenbauer, gerd janson, lawrence more to come.. sometimes things in life never occur as planned. so it happend to edward aka. gilles aiken, when the berlinbased artist was looking for a new apartment. somehow he found himself moving to a very small fairy tale-like village called teupitz in brandenburg, germany. it was there were edward rediccovered his deep love for nature and silence. with long extensive walks along the teupitzer lake he got to the bottom of his true love for house music. within the silence he could still hear a distant pulse of basslines ringing. and after release for giegling, blooming soul and white it was time to make the next step. with all the nature surrounding him, he finally felt able to get all the music out. music which ended up as his debut album, simply called teupitz

osman strauss split ep presents two great deep-house tunes by rahmi cihan & dj credes! >abgebrecht< on the info-side by turkish-rooted guy rahmi cihan is an outstanding shaker with a quote of german litterateur berthold brecht flowed by rahmi himself. >honz< on the logo-side by dj credes combines interplanetary groove, with a soulful speech of a beautiful jazz-queen, which create a deepkickin southflavoured late-nite hymn. rahmi cihan is busy in producing and playin music since over a decade now. being beatsport member since day one his contribution to this split ep is the well compromised result of long-year experienced flow including dark-dub vocals, major chords and echoing bells. >abgebrecht< for real can be described as ramis personnel signature tag of authentic dancemusic. dj credes was discovered by bespmusic in 2010 and now it s time to pop his cherry with >honz<. the house-addicted vinyl lover delivers a dark scattered bassline, funky claps and a resonant burning synth line. piano licks, vocal snippets and an acid line driven peak time speech issue proper instructions to the crowd.

rhein-main based tag team diggler & franksen go back some way in the history of frankfurts electronic scene. around 2000 diggler honed his reputation as a master of dubby techno for a whole decade. his early tracks like >boogiemonster< are blueprints of cool. period. today he is still rollin out crisp and deep techhouse beats that combine musical finesse, compositional tension and club appeal. having released about six albums and countless tracks and remixes for labels from raum…musik to cocoon and from resopal to level non zero, diggler is still on the hunt for the proper dose of beat hypnosis.

the first release on sighas own our circula sound imprint sees the hotflush artist shrug off the dubstep tag altogether with a 12 inch of dark dubbed out techno. marcel dettmanns remix of sighas own >early morning lights< sits on the a side. taking things deeper than one would typically expect, dettmann marries his own sound palette with that of the original perfectly. clocking in around the 130bpm mark, its mutating broken rhythms and throbbing bottom end will appeal to more adventurous dubstep heads as well as the techno purists. sighas eyes down old school tinged >over the edge< sits on the b side. clicks, claps and 909 hats roll over a layer of shifting dubbed out soundscapes and booming square bass.

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.

what needs to be said about move d? overused, though the veteran tag is, david moufang has been producing excellent music for many, many years. yet, the last few have seen him receive particular acclaim, especially for his more house-flavoured work - buoyed by his increased reputation as a dj... already played by ricardo villalobos

einen abwechslungsreichen soundtrack für die vielen facetten, die eine spaßige nacht oder auch ein spaßiger tag im club zu bieten haben, präsentieren die herren kottlet & zadak passend zur kalten jahreszeit. just wait entwickelt eine minimal gehaltene, düstere und mysteriöse spannung, die sich schließlich in einem stehenden subbass entlädt. dessen vom ohr nicht mehr wahrnehmbare anteile erzeugen eine wonnige resonanz an der bauchdecke, die sich mit öffnendem cutoff über den rücken bis hinauf an die schädeldecke ausbreitet. freundlich, hell und auf anregende weise dennoch einlullend kommt danach der titel sunday daher, der in zusammenarbeit mit soukie & windish entstanden ist. mollono.bass lässt das im original humorvoll angesprochene arbeiten am montag mit seinem remix in geradezu phantastische ferne rücken: dubbige echoeffekte und eine extra portion verträumte melodie erwecken den eindruck von fortgeschrittenen stunden. doch auch die schwitzige stoßzeit einer party kommt nicht zu kurz: mit pulsierendem basslauf, dichten percussions und einem deutlichen anflug von swing vor einer soundkulisse, die an einen exzentrischen trickfilm erinnert, erfüllt hut ab alle anforderungen für das, was man landläufig als kracher bezeichnet.

das rastlose berlin ist die kulisse von >zum glück in die zukunft<. der rapper, texter und songwriter marteria hat zwölf einzigartige songs erschaffen, die ein echtes, authentisches lebensgefühl zwischen neuköllner kiezkindern, jungen müttern vom prenzlauer berg und friedrichshainer lebenskünstlern auf den punkt formulieren. gleichzeitig funktionieren diese songs genau so gut in eberswalde oder villingen-schwenningen. laut marterias freund und mentor jan delay handelt es sich bei >zum glück in die zukunft< um das beste deutschsprachige hip hop-album, das in den letzten jahren erschienen ist.

fourth outing from the highly-reputed spatial, and at this point in proceedings the mans work should need no further introduction to the many listeners already up on his sound ? and yet, these fresh productions ? >100402< and >100319< ? mark something of a departure from the so-called >future garage< tag with which he has frequently been associated in the media.

nice price deal !!! charted by reboot !! niveous records proudly presents the first split ep with massive bangers by max piske and marquese, who built a tag team for this release. already played by robert dietz, ray okpara, livio& roby, alex celler, boris werner and many more

who wouldnt want to be kept by a beautiful rich woman? no matter how you look at it, its not the worst way to make a living. in 1982 the german new wave quartet ideal even wrote a song about it. >schoene frau mit geld< is thestory of a young man without any other drive or desire in life than to find such a woman and turn this state of utopia into reality. tough goal! twenty-eight years later, one of germanys finest and merited producers decided to do afresh interpretation of the song. sir losoul of playhouse fame presents two mixes (a dub for the faint of heart) that hone the hook and tag line of the original for maximum dance floor and repeated listening pleasure. and that, ladiesand gentlemen, is sometimes really the only thing you need in the world…

the phrase >tropical< is currently getting used to describe a lot of different music, some good, some bad, some ugly. to save on confusion senseless went out and travelled the world to find some music from the actual tropics, venezuela to be precise. somewhere buried deep in the mysterious rainforest, or possibly just in a studio in caracas, they found pocz and pacheko. it?s so near the equator maybe we can ditch the ?tropical bass? tag and go for something new, >equatorial bass< perhaps? maybe not. pacheko, francisco mejia, will be familiar to some for his solo releases on lo dubs, murder channel, seclusiasis and for his work with legendary venezualan expat cardopusher. his partner in bass pocz (carlos majoral) is a classically trained musician and production engineer. along with a select few others they run abstractor, a collective of producers, artists and designers, who promote parties, run a blog and do a fine job of representing bass music in venezuela pretty much solo. the collective includes graphic artist design or die who is responsible for the incredible artwork and pretty special video for >zarbak<.

dollkraut aka pascal pinkert is back with another great ep after his previously successful release >cheveux noir< on sound architecture. once again he shows his ability to produce a unique blend of house influenced by soul and jazz. loaded with warm and analogue sounds paired with his intuition for solid vocals and sampling.
the remixes featured on this record are done by two swinging tag-teams. first of all the well known krause duo (freude am tanzen / musik krause) with an edgy sharp jacking remix. on the b-side scott (the gym / my best friend / fluid ounce) turn the downbeat track precious fool with their jazzy twist into a dancefloor anthem. outstanding record!

the 9th release on excentric muziks off-shoot rekluse brings with it a very welcome edition to the rekluse family, we are sure matt cooper is somebody who you will be hearing a lot more about in the nearest future, that is if you havent heard of him already...
from his mixmag >future hero< tag, to his efx1000 tutorial videos for pioneer (he has been likened to james zabiela but with bigger bass lines) and his ongoing residency at the dirty disco in leeds (the northern light was the original home for the club night which the ep title pays homage to), the only piece missing from his jigsaw was the production side of things, until now. he recently teamed up with spektre to launch their new respekt label with the >cuernos cubanos< collaboration, and now we are very proud to present matts first ever solo productions, brought together as >the northern light ep<.
>pack your trunks< is dark twisted statement of intent, with a hearthrob-esque hook giving off the feeling that the track is ever so slightly on the brink of loosing it, before that tough gloomy groove reminds you just why you were listening in the first place, and why you have to listen to it just that one more time...
>triptup< attacks with a driving upbeat vibe that also arrives with a crazy tinged edge to it, keeping the dance floor bouncing off the walls, this has never failed to receive anything less than devastating reactions during its many roadtests on our travels.
>the swinger< rounds off the ep with a kinky tech houser that swaps the power of its 2 harder brothers for some chirpy tomfoolery, without compromising on its absolute effectiveness to well and truly rock the party whilst getting completely stuck in your head. and dont forget the breakdown...

unser neuestes mitglied in der le-famile ist ein hochtalentierter junger mann namens ken hayakawa aus wien, der seine wurzeln allerdings in japan verzeichnet. bereits im zarten alter von 6 jahren begann ken, klavierstunden zu nehmen, die bereits mit nur 9 jahren in erste, klassische konzerte mündeten. glücklicherweise entdeckte er später die elektronische musik für sich und erfreut uns nun mit musikalisch beeindruckenden produktionen. >letter for you< ist ein atmosphärischer ambient-trip... einer von diesen tracks, die man an einem sonnigen tag für sich entdeckt und nicht wieder hergeben möchte. geremixed wurde dieses funkelnde stück sommer von einem der momentan talentiertesten jungen produzenten, ali kuru, der ein episches, percussion-geladenes monster geschaffen hat, das seine wahre kraft langsam, aber effektiv entfaltet... wir lassen unser office bereits regelmässig von diesem stilsicheren remix erschüttern und können es kaum abwarten, bis der track seinen siegeszug über die open air-floors der welt antritt! auf b2 erwartet den hörer ein weiteres beispiel für ken s gut ausbalancierten produktionsstil namens >get the check<, ein funktionales, zwingend groovendes stück techhouse... nuff said!

this release is the first part of a remix series, which will bring the mellow atmosphere of alifs album to the club floors and lift it to another level. chloe impressively emphasizes her experimental potential by remixing alif trees reality in a quite dark, but still pushing way. different layers of vocals decorate the rather broken minimal house track and transfer it to a floor filling anthem. the renowned dutch producer-/dj-team tj kong & nuno dos santos already demonstrated their ability to create soulful but still deep and pushing house music. through their past releases on compost black label, such as the tranentrekker/dropout û maxi or the single merging which features vocals by house legend robert owens, the international demand for all kinds of collaboration with the talented tag team increased noticeably.

round 3 for partyshock who send diz into the ring, supported by dj amon. jumping tag-team style!
