the debut palace brothers album was released in 1993 when much american music was going through a particularly bombastic period. in contrast >there is no one what will take care of you< sounded like a field recording, as though a tape of back porch confessionals recorded by alan lomax as an example of high southern gothic style, had been newly discovered and released.

dancefloor killer -take a trip-, led by hector moralez vocals, is the story of a mad after hour where dj w!ld got two years ago in ibiza. a funky house track with old school beat and a mesmerising fat bass. remixer-s monikers do not necessarily need some more explainations, just feel the quality and consider their legacy. long-playing a-side -radio slave-s gotta get up remix- is the reflection of matthew edwards- love of re-edits and remixes, with his particular taste for jackin- sound beloved of house aficionados and fractured funk, oddball beats and mechanical soul. incendiary tune. veteran on the remix world, with highly expected remixes that drive dance floors across the globe to ecstatic conditions by means of his intense beats and rhythms, dj sneak delivers a furious banging house remix on b-side, with melodic rhythms that will suit dancers- soul. duo having instant chemistry as friends and in the studio, fries & bridges a.k.a phil weeks & hector moralez set the bar high with their consistent quality of house music. their -ghetto mix & dub- are sick, tight and tasty, and will for sure ingnite dancefloors worldwide.

a double helping of killer cosmic rarities from legendary miami-based disco label t.k., bringing together two super-obscure cuts from 1979 - queen samanthas amazing progressive electronic disco odyssey >take a chance< and the heavy soul/funk epic >cosmic funk< from the wonderfully-named mad dog fire department. the queen samantha track is eight minutes of slow-burning disco bliss - a bubbling mid- tempo monster with awesome percussion, super-funky bassline and the queens glorious soaring vocals which caused mayhem on the dance&#64258,,,oors at mancusos loft and levans warehouse as well as being a fave on the early ny breakbeat/hiphop scene with afrika bambaata giving it some heavy rotation. flip over for mad dogs extremely hard to &#64257,,,nd >cosmic funk<, a grooving grinding low-slung workout featuring hypnotic chanting vocals and some wild synth action. remastered for top-quality sound, this double a-sider is a must for lovers of that heavy t.k. sound.

here uto karem returns to plus 8 for his second release on the label, with the two tracks he serves up - take control and all over you - continuing in the rising italian stars good run of form. as well as being an in-demand remixer, dj and producer, karem also runs his own agile recordings imprint on which he explores the same deep techno rhythms and loopy hypnotism as he does with his two original tracks here.take control is a liquid track which builds in looped layers through piston pumping percussion, up-right beats and plenty of melodic drama. though it pushes on from left to right in true plus 8 style, the warmth and atmosphere that surrounds the main beats and bass is what really sets the track alight. all over you again features a crisp, almost dry production style as various percussive elements flesh out a 4/4 techno groove. hidden within each bar are some wooden sounding hits and various melodic notes, all of which are heart-warming additions to a killer dancefloor groove. as well as this, there is a more driving dub version of take control which canters on a knife edge for its six minute duration, closing out another efficient and streamlined techno release on plus 8.

a re-working of defkline and red polo is whats on offer for the latest release on the ever so cheeky cheeky hot cakes. >take it back< is instantly recogniseable and is expertly re-crafted by deekline and ed solo on the a side, the super star pairing make this one a must buy. ably backed up by a phatman and robin mix, dont miss out.

after the >decade ep<, which featured four original tracks from london/berlin duo jack dixon & robin card, comes a diverse package of remixes, courtesy of brownswood recordings eliphino, label mainstay (and >new jack swing< producer) james fox, and newcomers colo.

featuring the remaining tracks from last years stimulus album - including dave clarke fav and title track modular system. the ep also features a vinyl exclusive - incept - taking us into the realm of deep electrobass space exploration. support from keith tucker aux88, scape one, dexorcist, convexion/erp, oliver bondzio(hardfloor), and dave clarke (modular system charted and featured in best of 2010 show)

the man with the mask shouldnt need an introduction: delsin, styrax leaves and his own present outfit have shown the mans ability to maneuver between true school techno, malicious house, break beat bombs and motor city romanticism - all ornamented with redshapes very own mark. for running back, he delivers something like a cross sum of his work. >on da floor< (>da< reads >the<) is subterranean haunted house with a broken heart, while >goom< features a take-your-shirt-off reese-bass-line. if you like it dry, the >bonus beatz< >z< reads >s<) of >goom< will satisfy your needs. bass drum jungle music

first a made up sound release in over a year, following up on the rear window excursion on delsin, the clone basement release and the 2562 fever lp. it features that >left-right track?< heard in many a 2562 / a made up sound dj-sets over the last months. the flip contains a piece of congealed frustration we had to get out of our system before it got worse, as well as the original beatless version of the a-side to calm down again, somewhat. already massive reactions from all the hot guns but of course decide for yourself!

carefully caressing your back whilst whispering sweet nothings into your ear, pillowtalk join the life and death family with their modern dance soul hybrid, >the come back ep<. despite the name, its actually a debut ep -- and one that quickly establishes pillowtalks unique sound as an important voice in the new generation of contemporary dance music. already getting serious play (and props) from a wide range of djs, from the deep & soulful wolf + lamb and soul clap crews all the way to the banging bass centric justin martin, >the come back< finds life and death once again crossing the conventional genre descriptions with a true dancefloor bomb that everyone can get behind. imagine motown and classic doo-wop blended with a modern dance sensibility and you may start to get an idea of the pillowtalk sound. but its better to stop imagining and just have a listen because what these guys are doing is so genuinely unique, its not an easy one to pigeonhole with words and genre titles alone. the ep includes >the come back<, >soft< and >long lost friends< as well as a life and death remix of >soft<. put together in the life and death laboratories it brings a darker, deeper take on this beautiful and already incredibly sentimental dancefloor serenade.

on this release we have two goddesses of drum & bass, the queens of the jungle ... diane charlemagne (goldie >inner city life< / high contrast - >if we ever<) and ladyroller (ez rollers >tough at the top / walk this land<) and what an honour to have worked with them both. still as much talent now as back in the day.

danish duo laid back made a most surprising comeback to the clubs in 2010 with >cocaine cool<. not that they had ever been really forgotten: their electro pop classic >white horse< remained a sure shot in clubs for the thirty years after its release 30 years back and a constant inspiration to boatload of diverse artists from techno to hip-hop. >cocaine cool< was recorded at the same session but the ironic vocals ridiculing label executives blowing up their frail ego with the chemical substance were deemed to risquee at that time, so the recording collected dust in some box until last year. bostons >soul clap< another duo hailed as one of the hotest things in clubland known for their eclectic funk-rooted taste. they opt for a cool sparser arrangement leaving out the “white horse -like chords. a loose, dry electro funk beat, hpynotic one-note synth, few dub effects and additional vocoder vocals do the trick bravorously. besides an instrumental version theres also a harder jacking dub take sounding like early chicago house edits. and while the boys are add it they also re-edited another huge one from laid back: >baker man< that managed the unlikely balancing act of not only hitting it bigtime in the charts but also in the emerging balearic scene. this 12 inch is cool in every which way!

in the aeroplane chart mix march 2011, loved by justice, a-trak, rex the dog, headman and the most blogged and tweeted track on hype machine, >out of my mind< by tyson is doomed to take-over the coolest dance-floors in the world.

chilean born dinky is a long standing resident at panorama bar. her warm, technical house sound, underpinned by intricate rhythmic and harmonic elements is a much loved staple of the scene. >take me< is a wonderful meeting of thuggish house and soul-infused, feel-good energy. a surprise break leads to unexpected vibes and a brief encounter with some rhodes keys action. >polvo< is a psychedelic ride through more cerebral moments, possessing the power to truly lock you in. the extended passages of this breezy, garage-house hybrid just highlight dinkys instincts for dramatic timing.

vinyl only!! big with soul clap, manuel tur, brett johnson, terry francis, willie graff, lee curtiss, rainer trueby. crime city disco is a small, berlin based label with their heart and soul in malmoe, sweden. the labels focus lay in the deep, slow and disco influenced side of house.

in 2011 carl craigs planet-e imprint turns 20. to celebrate, as well as a world-wide label tour starting in march 2011, craig is releasing a best of planet-e compilation – entitled 20 f@#&ing years - we aint dead yet (released vinyl in june), and releasing a monthly remix release from the planet-e back catalogue, where friends of the label choose their favourite planet-e release and add their take on it.

head-turning singles >tuff enough< and >take em up< from marcus >shit robot< lambkins fantastic debut, from the cradle to the rave, get reinvented by two of the most talented dj/producers working in electronic music. on the a-side is germanys michael mayers epically inventive take on >tuff enuff<. less muscular than lambkins original, the remix softens things up by placing supple keys under the hardened exterior. the climax is an otherworldly listening experience that literally builds to take off. on the flip, john talabots remix of >take em up< starts like a laidback house party that builds just enough energy when its relocated under disco lights. the haunting opening — a swirling, ghostly blend of elliptical vocals and handclaps — leads to a sonic journey that is as smooth as it is wholly entrancing. this fantastic coupling of tracks is being produced in very short supply, so snap them up quickly!

roman iv is roman flügel. surely, you dont need us to sing you the praise of his various styles. under his roman iv moniker, he always pursued his more contemplative dance floor side. la paloma is exactly that kind of perpetual and lulling marathon jam that recollects his testament tracks (check playhouse and ladomat for further listening) and needs to be followed all the way through. having said that, sa caleta looks for a more immediate hit. with a rigid punch and some greasy layers, you get romans take on the current or recurrent slow motion disco craze. straightened out and cut right to the chase. finally, lucy rolls over again, starts where la paloma ended and makes its way up to a subliminal hookline. for all you digi kids: look for the bonus beat mix tool supreme called 123 bpm. roman iv president
