repressed! rare funk collection with tracks from lee dorsey, the meters, explosions, eddie bo, wild magnolia, dr.john, robert parker, allen toussaint, sonny jones a.o...

these hand-picked tracks are now available on a dj-friendly 2-sided-4-tracks-vinyl-ep and let me tell you, they are well worth the extra investment. the first of the bunch starts off with big man lexys fancy girl, an ever-growing minimal techy peak-time-pusher with a hushed vocal-sample, some anaologue signal sounds and a futuristic and pumping beat. add a great distorted melody to this on the breakdown and the dancefloor will thank you for putting this on: they will go mental! after this introduction, its the newcomers mickey monzza & joseph discos turn with their equally stimulating track lonely. this is a great modern piece of pumping dub techno with a straight-forward attitude. the hi-hats on this tune are mesmerezing, the clappy snares and sirens perfectly placed and the subtle dubby and groovy melody an ideal antithesis to this hectically moving tune. simply nice! but hold on, there is more to come. on the flip there is hamburgs house impressario h.o.s.h. with his track ben johnson and whether this title is a reference to the legendary sportsman or not, its a pretty record-worthy track: wonderful little stabs and vocal sounds and a bassline so warm and groovy it makes your heart melt. then when the breakdown hits you with its long and winding signal sound, the dancefloor will already be bathing in a floor filled with sweet happiness. this is truely delicious! the two newcomers and residents at hive club in zurich animaltrainer have the honour to finish off this ep with their oily tech-house-anthem talkshow, a superb main-floor-peak-time-melody-affair.

swedens speedmarket avenue are a a pop music collective led by a little guy who looks like a cross between charles manson and marc bolan. their new album is, without a doubt, one of the musical highlights in 2008 for all pop lovers! their debut album im going to let my new swiss army knife answer to that, was packed ful of jangle pop reminiscent of label 53rd and 3rd. the band have played various european festivals and collaborated with camera obscura on their lets get out of this country album thanks to the mutual connection of producer, jari haapalainen. under his direction, they ve now recorded their second album, way better now. an absolute beauty from beginning to end replete with precious pop melodies in a non conventional way, imaginative arrangements and an omnipresent trumpet. limited to 600 copies on vinyl.

nice price deal !!! the unhistories sound is psychedelic, but not in the paisley way. more mind expanding/modern...get it straight, singer isnt referencing any past trend in music. their idea involves their (very) original compositions tangling with voices stumbling, clucking, heaving, whipping, shrieking and sighing in a graceful jumble. this is a crux. this is unhistories. by way of introduction, the record is packaged in a way that brings the fun and the fury of singer into your hands, your home, your lap, your eyes, ears and headphones with life, weight and a glossy polish.

peter?s (of peter bjorn & john) highly anticipated first solo record. it features a more acoustic, low-key side of peter than fans of 2007?s ubiquitous indie anthem >young folks< are used to hearing

poussez is the electronic bastard child of london based producer, dj duo jafar and maxime cescau. established artists and record label directors in their own right?.. jafar of course popping up on a few of our previous releases. poussez brings the pair blasting through to house musics cutting edge in the 21st century. the pair are continuing to change the deep house formula in the zeroes marrying a more melodic sensibility with the abrasiveness of electro, darkness of minimal and dancefloor punch of techno. natural conditions is deeper than the proverbial abyss, >natural conditions< rocks a skankin square-bass around the sort of synths freeranges >square one< has become renowned for. 4am crowd grabbing deepness!on the flip, from its opening synths, deliciously washing over you like an incoming electronic tidal wave, >tell me how you do< grabs the listeners attention. it has that timeless mid 90s deep house feel without being outmoded and, for those paying attention, will be noted as poussezs trademark opening track on their live sets

imagine ed banger partying with throbbing gristle while donna summer watches from a distance and you are somewhere near to how this sounds, 8 bit backing tracks give it a retro feel while alices vocals are mashed, filtered and processed through various effects pedals sometimes to the point of being incomprehensible.

the term >ballad< is written similarly in many languages of the western hemisphere. it is a antique word. you can find its etymological origin in the latin verb >ballare< - which means >to dance< - and the greek verb >ballein< - wich means >to move<. a ballad is always a story told through music. in recent times the term >ballad< is often associated with greasy / absurd pop music. what a shame! ballad inc. releases tracks that earn the label >ballad<. on our first release >exile< you can listen to the epic story >high hopes of salvation< by quietpoint and to two short stories by xdb. >anilem< and >jupit< got everything a ballad needs. of course you can dance to it. of course you can move your body. but this should not be the main issue! there is so much more in modern instrumental music. who needs words to tell a story?

top quality cosmic italo disco with a new york dfa/morgan geist edge this is a limited edition 500 copies release on soul jazz records! previous releases on swedens rollerboy label, this is the pseudonymous name of one of europes finest producers, so we are not allowed to tell you much about him!

big with: dj chus, satoshie tomiie, mister c, timo maas !!! santos’, techno outfit maskio is on fire! after the success of >monday< and >human jungle< hes back with a brand new series of tracks: >special frequencies< sums quality groovey tech beats and histerycal crescendos, theres no need to tell you how much this tune get the dancefloor real wild. on the flip >e102< is the sickest brutal minimal techno stomper you’,ll hear for a while: long life to maskio!!! hell yeah!!

twisteds first 12 on grid of 2008 is the start of a whole load of fresh material we?ll be hearing throughout this year, with 12, eps and a collaboration album with zen in the pipeline. >shit don?t stink< is a message to all those who think they?re a cut above the rest - twisted has come to tell them that isn?t the case!

repress of the 1994 classic album

excellent and rare set from the highly respected roots group cultural roots originally released in 1984, which is now re mastered and gets a vinyl repress for the first in well over 20 years. recorded at channel one studios, jamaica, produced by henry junjo lawes, mixed by scientist and utilising the talents of the roots radics, this album still sounds as fresh and thrilling as it did when it was originally released. the albums features the popular love feelings, cut of john holts evergreen police in helicopter rhythm and the big hit hell a go pop a big favourite with reggae sound systems during 1984.

this selection is based on over two decades of deep dj experiences. the impact of seeing jazz dancer, michael knot of idj, dancing to acid trax by phuture, in the back room of a pub in teddington, produced one of those seminal moments that, gilles maintains, radically changed his view of acid house. it is important to say that this is certainly not a club album as some of the predecessors in this series have been.

with there trademark gold-colored vinyl pressings and forward thinking sound - the dinner label created a serious buzz amongst many serious players! the talented anton pieete finally receives the credits he deserves and many of his productions (and co-productions with for example bart skils) are charted by top jocks like adam bayer, 2000 and one and shinedoe! museum is a collab between radial man jeoen liebregts and anton. the boys spit super clean, hefty material and fuse dark offbeat with stripped down grooves. this is another showcase of topnotch productional craftsmanship! they do deserve there own money!

limited 12inch vinyl sampler to the midem 2008 ! just classic deeper vocal house at it best...

ghostbusters is one of the most famous movies from the 80 s and so is the soundtrack! now it s time for the new soundtrack - packed in a new groovy style. produced was this new version by the one who is also responsable for the project steve n king and the rap vocals are from no one else than dj van tell who is the support act for the whole forthcoming 50 cent tour.

dimi angélis & jeroen search. both artists are among the few internationally acclaimed techno artists from the netherlands. their dj activity and production work reaches back into the early nineties. >the new frontier< melds the firmness and determination of old school techno with a contemporary subtlety. it is amazing how few elements jereon search and dimi angélis need to create a dense and compelling athmosphere. >lunar< is the kind of track that slips perfectly in a wide range of club sets. while it offers the dj a vast span of possible connections to other music, its hypnotic melody does not leave your head for hours. >jupiter< is bolder, it is centered around a demanding groove. while the melodies operate in the background of the track, the complex net of rhythmic patterns shifts indistinguishably. it is the type of music which holds you in a tight grip - and you are not even able to tell what exactly is so striking about it. its implicitness makes >the new frontier< such a special record. it belongs to the rare breed of music which does not demand to go into your box - and this is exactly why it is made to stay there for quite some time

a new label , a new day , a new direction. controversial and exciting , this label is going to be one to watch for anyone who has their brain switched on and who can make up their own minds about music. it is not going to play int o the hands of the minimal techno explosion but it will share the space and the dance floor with most styles of techno and provide your audience with some memorable moments in their lives. this is what we believe music should now be aiming to achieve. you are welcome to tell us if you think we are doing that or not. first track rox the box is almost daft punkesque in rhythm , but the groove is more techno styled with some serious heavy gating in the break giving it a glitchey crackly sound. strange dayze is a more mellow minimal techno experiment , a very cool club sound with some unusual melodies enjoy

mister smooth rides again! hot on the heels of the reissue of his edit of alan smithees version of natalie coles >tell you all about it< comes this latest collection of road-tested chicago-style deep-dish vinyl pizza

smooth soulful r&b number, includes rap parts by jim jones and fabolous, instrumental and acapella version plus bonus track how can i tell feat raid

cool package of remixes includes mixes by t raumschmiere, betrieb, dj dsl, robert lippok and bus

supported by brett johnson, woody, dj t, chris duckenfield and laurent garnier !! >the last shooter< uses mind bending funk to tell the story of three people ending an epic day/night in a blaze of jagermeister glory. the most descriptive element of this tracky adventure would be the misguided, off kilter synth twists that give the listener the illusion of drunkenness and vertigo. backed with a spine of latin percussion and tweaked low rez hi hats this a side packs a punch that can be only compared to >the last shooter< of the night.funk flows on when you flip it to side b. fongtom rides along with a thick walking bass line that weaves grinds with some of ferreyras signature percussion. a playful melody serves as the memory game hook that wont fade away even after a post joint meltdown or a night of mtv top 40 abuse

incl phat marlose remix !! moolono.bass is known as a part of the legendary kombinat 100 quartett and also label head of the fresh founded acker records where he has released his debut ep >linstow e.p.< at the end of 2006. in the past he did a successful remix for marlose s >hey na ep< on ostwind records 04. now he is back on the front and we are happy to present his own debut ep on ostwind. like his productions with kombinat 100, mollono.bass combines warm grooving and driven drum sets with dubby, harmonic and emotional elements to tell the crowd special moments. after his debut ep >hey na< (played by gesine pertenbreiter for example) and the great minikosmonauten remix to kombinat 100, marlose is also back on the front with his eupho-riemix, where he take >endless summer< in a more floor and ear candy orientated minimal version in his familiar pumpin style !!!

exciting news from the re-activated hairy claw label that has been lying dormant for a while. as you know, bears shouldnt be taken for granted when sleeping and this one has awaken to devastating effect. laj & quakerman have been dormant (remember what we said about sleeping bears?!) since 2002 and many fans of their tracks on fiasco and the idjut boys u-star will be very excited to hear of thismonster on hairy claw. two tracks entitled >vinyl frontier< and >lust in space< are sure to get plays from the widest spectrum of djs while keeping their old fanbase intact. live drum rhythms, bleeps, moody synths and latino marracas…i can see this freakin out alot of bunnies! its a space party for future bears on a mission to jack. raj gupta (for it is he) has released under several guises for labels as respected as nuphonic, session, noid, r&s, strutt, mr bongo…the list goes on… we will tell you more nearer release date but for now… grrrr!!!!! roooaaarrgghhh!!

special random one-sided release! will make the hearts of collectors go boooom! a fairytale is looming on the horizon of the unknown. one must not tame a fairytale. fairytale lies in absence. eremits rebel against the power of the kings and for their romantic nature, secrecy should be the rule. they complain about our reasoning of the land - that we bought socrates for logical dissilusion. but where have all the flowers gone? why matemathics instead of metamathics? pursuing what all philosophy has tried, that is, to avoid metaphysics, and because i feel that tonights peasantry without pleasantry is somehow nervous, wanting for something to make sense - you outrageous calculists - i am going to tell you the secret that underlines what you have heard until now. because all i want to do is hug you close, and all that you want to do is to be hugged - consider it as a gift

lights, camera, action. lca is a tale of just what happens after the afterparty. atfc turns up the temperature in the studio and invites danny bighouse (my mtv) to tell a tale of photo voyeurism on this white hot swinging groove.
