a journey into electronic, soulful, afro & latino rhythms
there are few labels who will get the opportunity to work extensively with the most dynamic remixers, djs and producers of this decade. bbe seems to keep coming up trumps. grammy award winner louie vega has been on top of the dj game for over 2 decades.

the two berlin residents and great friends, jin choi (archipel, lesizmo:r) and daso (my best friend, spectral sound) present us with the first summer tune of the year, >teer<. the original has already featured on the 5ysyst compilation and today we feature its new edit. beautifully deep, piano laden and featuring incredible vocal work, >teer< is set for a successful summer season. backing the new edit, are two stunning remixes from systematic regular, rodriguez jr. and the mighty, quenum! >due to the never ending feedback of many friends and djs we have decided to take this very different and outstanding track off the compilation and release it as a single.<
approved support by dubfire, luciano, jimpster, konrad black, tini, terry francis, adam beyer etc.

the two dutch artists warren fellow and michel steinbach team up again to show what good dance music is. but this time they give their debut on mannheim based label circle music. again they created a unique eclectic mix like they did on their successful cosmic ep in 2009 or together with legendary todd terry with >got a soul< in 2010 where they proved that they are very able to handle house music. on the a side we have some straight beats with classic percussions at the beginning. but very soon fellow and steinbach come around with some synthesizer hook which melody is quoting the nineties. the vocals only brings it down to a round figure.

over the course of nine albums in the 2000s for their producer-led beat generation series, bbe adopted an unusual stance. >do what you want<, their artists were told for probably the first time in their careers. the labels enormously liberal approach was the antithesis of stiff major record label a&r practices, their forward thinking rewarded handsomely by a truly diverse set of albums from some of the worlds most capable hip-hop architects.

back at the tail end of the last millennium bbe released a comprehensive overview of house music in the latter stages of the 20th century. >henry street music: the story so far - 1993 to 1999< was a slice of superior contemporary club classics featuring all of the key players, architects and music makers of the day. todd terry, armand van helden, kenny dope, dj sneak, 95 north, robbie rivera, davidson ospina, ralphi rosario, mike delgado, king britt, and a handful of others under various alter egos and nom de plumes. it was a given that they were all great records, what was all the more impressive was that they all originated from the same recording home, henry street music. a label conceived and devised by johnny demairo, an italian-american from jersey who talked the talk, could easily have been an extra in the sopranos, and was known affectionately as the shark. to others he was just plain johnny d, and one half of the production duo johnick with studio partner nicky p palermo jr. tracks such as d2- d2 by dj duke are collectors classics and will be re-released and re-mastered on vinyl for the first time in over 10 years

third vinyl only release on the high-class label project by balearic mike & steve terry. handnumbered and screenprinted sleeve, limited to 500 copies.

>i keep asking myself where they take all that brilliant music from. its just as if somebody had poked a bees nest and then it all burst out. i feel deeply connected to the pampa style…< (terry hogann, the musical mistress, 10/2010). as was to be expected, pampa is steadily developing into a platform for cross-border electronic dance music. each pampa release sounds different from the previous and still pampa remains a conclusive musical planet. this is all the more surprising in the case of pampa005, which features two completely different artists: side a: nathan fake - xmas rush having reportedly recorded his track >xmas rush< in his london studio during a jam session, nathan fake (border community, traum, saw) has turned in a total brainfuck. its mercylessly exaggerated, psychedelic, inexorable, and at the same time sweet and heart-warming. a very rare mixture. unique in its consistency, we havent heard anything like it since the 90s. its so nice and overwhelming to have your ears exercised the right way again. evergreen… side aa: dj koze pays tribute to michael smith - >mi cyaan believe it< in the meantime, dj koze has moved on to completely different spheres. once again, he astonishes his public with an extremely danceable version of michael smiths >mi cyaan believe it<. having originally started off as a digital error, and recorded within a single night, this tune recalls the ruthlessness, rawness and revolutionary energy of public enemy

following the success of the midnight express single >danger zone<, robbie m and terry patton continued to search for new sounds. over the next few years the duo would produce dozens of instrumental sketches. terry always recorded these backing arrangements to cassette tapes so they could easily listen to them later in the car. cruising the streets of rock island il, vocalist robbie m would write the additional melodies and lyrics.

for our 3rd release, we are proud to present an important fixture and compatriot of the underground elec-tronic scene of milan, the inimitable luca doobie. while his recent, groove oriented brand of house has been well documented and received on labels such as freerange and safari electronique (among many others), we are happy to have secured a veritable bomb of an ep, entitled _south america_. comprised of 3 original productions, it perfectly showcases luca_s abilities as a producer and arranger, whether he is rocking the dense tribal-esque beats on the titular _south america_ or utilizing driving, swinging basslines such as the one in _backward_ or even venturing into heads down, hypnotic techno territories as he so effortlessly does in _nepture_. already supported by ellen allien, ivan smagghe, mistress barbara, mark knight, cristian varela, onionz, simon & shaker, technasia, gel abril, eric entrena, terry francis, omid 16, desyn masiello

smith & mudd follow their second album, le suivant with something that goes a bit darker. side a is a chuggy affair where the beats drive a bit harder than their usual tracks but the lushness and the bass groove are still there. a beautiful electric violin solo takes the second half to a different place. side b is a deep bass journey that sounds like jean luc ponty and terry callier combined with a but of led zep. fantastic stuff. check
