updraft – the second remix extract on vinyl is by true veterans in techno business. the first rework is done by joey mull, who delivers a straight pumping but still melodic dance floor mover.

limited upfront copies on stock , release date : 2010 !!! after a few excellent remixes for radioclit or milke, some perspiring mixtapes and a handful of trakcs already playlisted by brodinski, jess & crabbe or zombie disco squad even before an official release, qoso signs his first ever ep with fool house. qoso is our wild yet clean cut child. in sync with the african and rave obsessions of his generation, he takes them in with a definite recklessness. martial coupe-decale or tropical techno, this is material to help our youth not taking dance for granted.

gregor tresher and break new soil are more than happy to present an exciting new talent from italy: romano alfieri. the two tracks he presents (one of them in collaboration with production partner luca bear) have it all: its house, its pop, its techno, but most of all: its one of the biggest dancefloor destroyers of the winter season already!

this is the first production by kenneth christiansen, dj, producer and label boss of echocord. he teams up with his good friend dennis bog, which is known for his unique label baum and baum ltd plus his own productions as resoe.
>ofetriade< is a powerful techno-track, can remind of marcel dettmann and mathew jonson. the remix is made by ben klock from berlin, owner of klockworks and resident at berghain. amazing peaktime techno!
>synthese< is a mixture of dubstep and techno - for the fans of deadbeat, martyn and peverelist.

1990 classic!!

from the studio of scott grooves... modified suede... music that you can feel. great selection of basic house tracks in the vein of his recent scott grooves release on clone (coco brown). this is a special tribute to clean simple rhythm tracks and scott grooves shows that being one of the first techno musicians on the planet doesnt have to mean that the passion for pure dance music has to disappear after so many years in the music bizz. excellent collection of tracks that lean towards classic house music, but with that fresh simple approach of many of the new school house producers! very much recommended!

classic sounding track by two long going and respected techno heads.. fabrice lig and titonton. these guys take it back to the early nineties when techno was still fresh and new... the days that titonton and dan curtin were debuting with their sophisticated techno sound. raw funky 909 percussion, bleepy analogue synths and great warm string sounds and beautiful melodies. purist techno tracks that never go out of style and reminds the old blokes why we loved techno in that period so much. and it shows the young cats that there is more then the standard dj tool techno! beanfield is on remix duty here... and he delivers an updated modern dancefloor friendly house version with a great string section that reminds a bit of knights of the jaguar and a killer bassline after the break. check!

a stunning percussive phunky techno 4 track ep on the highest level

gem001 is egberts -dezelfde weg ep-. secret cinema has been dropping it regularly and the crowd response has been amazing! side a is a hypnotic melody driven techno slammer titled >dezelfde weg<. on the flipside is a deeper darker track called >vette sounds< with creepy yet commanding synths over a pounding bassline driven groove. this track has also received the secret cinema remix treatment to brilliant effect!

supported by renato cohen, danny tenaglia, sian, patrick pulsinger, axel bartsch, bukaddor & fishbeck, orde meikle, kiko... let us introduce the new trapez artist deepchild with his brand new 2 track ep on vinyl. deepchild writes bass-heavy machine-music for broken people, disjointed booty-bass for backroomdreamers, fuelled with sweat, jackin funk and tears. >backroom< is such a track, a warm, raw, urgent and sensual. techno at its finest, highlighting deepchilds voice stronger and more delicately than in the other track. his misch-masch of deep detroit futurism, southern-crunk and forgotten space-disco cut with a rusting razor-blade of german tech-minimalism and filtered through a personal collection of odd analogue equipment is a secretformula that has >backroom< come to life! the b-side >death panel my ass< is a masterpiece of a recording with a hell of a tricky production, cool vocal snippets, cool effects over dubs... well a busy track but at the same time at ease and deep.
deepchild is based in australia and has recorded for resopal in the past. he is playing worldwide and on trapez parties in 2010 !

hive audio is here – a brand new label, run by the makers of the infamous hive club, located in the the industrial quarter of zurich. the imprint was founded by samuel gmur and adrian wöllhaf, better known as animal trainer with some great releasing on oliver koletzkis stil vor talent, amongst others. zurich is not only party capital of beautiful switzerland, it is more and more becoming a habitat for talented and creative music producers and djs, who will now get a new international platform. releases will be held mainly by residents of the hive club itself – benja will be given the honour to start off with his track paradose. >paradose< impresses with a funky percussion loop, ultra-brief chords and scantily applied vocal snippets. benja keeps it dust-dry, leaving out every kind of frippery and lifting the track to a real &#64258,,oor-&#64257,,ller without any razzmatazz needed. on the &#64258,,ip we have a remix by christian burkhardt, who needs no further introduction. he turns the number into a real techno loop monster, which will catch you within a few beats, and then wont let loose again. hypnotic and twinkle-toed at the same time, his remix easily will suit any after hour or peaktime set to the same degree. christian burkhardt himself is also one of our favourite guests in the club. this is why, of course, we are double happy to welcome a hive club resident on our hive audio 001.

peter van hoesen returns with his time 2 express label after being on tour during the summer season. and in the meantime he got a great selection together with remixes and new tracks by the t2x artists. peter himself is getting a dirty make-over job executed by norman nodge and pendle coven. with exciting results as one might expect from these guys! sendai and samuli kemppi delivering some powerful abstract basement techno tracks. t2x with another essential techno release!

dualism are kwamina and gab from zurich. they produce music since 2005 and had their debut release on pheeks label archipel >dualism speech defect ep< in 2006.
today their sound appears minimally as twisted, queer-melodic deep and wicked techno with much love to the detail. their sound surprises with unconventional rhythm-structures and many-layered sound-design. their distinctive style and preference for idiosyncratically and broken sounds as well as the clever use of vocal snippets is always present on their productions.

four track ep by label owner aroy dee.
the first track >once u loved<, is warm and emotional, with slowly evolving strings topped with mysterious whispering vocals, reminding to older blake baxter material. 2nd track, >tears< is a fierce and sexy chicago-house influenced dancetrack, with a solid baseline, steady beats and lush keys.<br 7>first track on the b-side is >lift me high<, a downtempo dreamlike analogue house classic with haunting strings and vocals of miss salvador, merging larry heard and g-strings with an italo-disco kind of atmosphere. last on this ep is >soul spark<, an atmospheric techno track with the raw energy of early relief-releases and the psychedelia of dance mania.

support from andre rozzo, alex jones, so inagawa, jamie jones, matthew styles-harris, laurent garnier, steve lawler, nic fanciulli. luna records is a new uk based label from respected club promoter/ dj/ producer paul bowen, the man behind middlesbroughs infamous >riff raff< events. the label is set to release music from some pretty well established artists with an emphasis on stripped back chunky house music and in that vein the debut single sees the much hailed german producer chris lattner step up get the imprint firing in the right direction. lattner has been djing for the best part of two decades, initially gracing the decks at hannover techno parties before word of his talent spread, seeing him strike out to play across germany. he has hosted a radioshow for australias pulse radio, worked as a booking agent for lessizmore and has had releases on labels such as einmaleins musik and wba. his passion for electronic music has shone through in everything he has done and led him to produce some great records, to which can now be added the luna debut >memory<. this single release kicks off with lattners original of >memory<, a solid tech driven slice of house with heavily effected vocal samples and a simple floor shaking groove. this is understated underground house music at its best, deep chunky and highly effective. first of the two remixes comes from ex-peace division man justin drake, who builds on the vibe of the original, thickening out the drums and layering some heavy filters over the sythn stabs to great effect. a straightforward and highly effective arrangement provides everything that is needed in this excellent reworking. finally we have a remix from bearweasel, who have been providing choice cuts in house music over the last year via labels such as tsuba, supernature, bloop and murmur. for their >lazy dub< they take things back to basics and turn in a slab of deep and dubby house with an emphasis on razor sharp percussion and earth moving bass. this is a superb debut from a label that is sure to become a major fixture in 2010.

da ist sie, die dritte home sweet home compilation! wie in jedem jahr finden sich hierauf erlesene tracks aus dem greifbaren upon-you-labelumfeld, gemacht von künstlern, die auch auf der traditionellen home-sweet-home-neujahrssause in der berliner arena auflegen oder live spielen. wie gewohnt besteht das release aus zwei teilen und gehört für uns zu den schönen devotionalien unserer labelgeschichte: miko von channel x und empro schieben stolz ihr gemeinsames techno- nümmerchen auf a1. die b2 liege hat sich unser talentierter uy - neuzugang echonomist aus griechenland gesichert, der sich hier zuverlässig von seiner sonnenseite zeigt. besonders freut uns auch, dass uns unsere polnischen kollegen von catz n dogz ein reizendes b1 housegeschenk unter der tür durchgeschoben haben und dass durch die berliner handwerkerhände von zadak & kotelett ein ebenso meisterliches a2-tanzbrett für uns entstanden ist

contexterrior is pleased to present the debut collaboration from italian producers alessio mereu and andrea ferlin, three immaculately produced techno cuts as slick as melting ice, with eerie voices woven so deep into the mix, you’ll wonder whether you’re actually hallucinating them. mereu is known for his material on labels like cmyk and toys for boys, and is also half the duo bunkers whose “holding back” and “barajas” have made the rounds in the clubs these past several months. ferlin is known for his past releases on freak n’ chic, boxer and mindshake, and is also half of duoteque. his productions have found their way into a number of commercially released mix cds including those by magda, triple r, damian lazarus & matthew styles. from the creepy title track, circling around like a shark that smells blood, to the serene yet bouncy “boxis”, to the tribal touch of “walking on the forest path”, the deep thoughts ep offers a variety of tracks perfect for mediation on the dancefloor.

vinyl only !!! no digital release !!!one secret - two producers - one track - two mixes - one distributor - bauhaus - a techno masterpiece for those who know… designed for entertainment pleasure… walter gropius would be proud

this is the track that has been burning down the house this summer, this is punk-funk techno ... this is >fables and fairytales<. a deep, dark and wonderful cut of distorted house music from adam marshall and nicholas murray under the alias n/a featuring the voice of rosina… a creation that touches the heart, body and soul with an intensely passionate sound, producing one of the best crosstown rebels releases yet.
from the vocal chorus so hooky and cool - to the kind of bassline you will be humming hours after the club, this piece of lfo tech-funk brings adonis, the slits and the fatback band into the same room and melts them into one shining gem. falling horns and random stabs, a punk funk vocal that is truly infectious, crosstown rebels #54 grabs you at the beginning and doesnt let go for the next twelve minutes. a faultless anthem for the coming nights…
on the b side, the latest artist signed to rebels, the uniquely talented deniz kurtel, stretches the hook into a dubbed out trip of groove-infused techno. morphing and twisting the ferocious female voice to sensual whispers and heart-felt cries, she works more enchantment into this anthem and builds a serious groove for a dark room.

>general motors, detroit, america< is the first offering to emerge from the mysterious parisian dance duo, acid washed. the influence of chicago and detroit techno lingers on the backseat in this six-minute joy-ride of sprawling atmospheric electronica. on the flipside, snake amply showcases a different, more collaborative side to acid washed. berlin based newcomer, barbara panther, catches the eye with a sultry vocal performance with a sting in the tail. equally adept at providing softness, her dynamism shimmers alongside the deft production. as per usual, record makers have assembled a stellar remix package. put in the hands of blackstrobe, the measured quality of general motors, detroit, america finds itself infused with a tension that thrills and flickers with a brooding energy that belongs on the dancefloor. gavin russom (dfa) calms the restless pulse at the heart of snake, evoking the aztec spirit of dj rolando before overdrawn arpeggiated solos are used to disrupt with pleasing effect.

incl rush rmxs!! this big tune comes as a mixed bag remix-package - there seems to be a mix for just about everyone. besides a full vocal re-rub that sounds like tech-house turned disco by dean coleman, there’s also a harder funky house vocal pass (josh da funky 1&steve smooth) plus two hard techno mixes by dj rush in typical high octane style
