it seems like hawkinson has drawn his inspiration from the lush crackling whispering of the woods. akiko seems to see it the same way and with her remix makes a compelling overall package of the second 12 inch by phunkit. >unterholz< is a crisp driving, deep techno roller with playful percussion elements, subtle functionally-held choral dubs and a bass line drily humming to itself. >stillleben< crackles bone-dry and elegantly at the same time, the light melodic phrases form a great contrast to the massive wall of bass. akiko is tinkering a little organic dust monster out of >stillleben<. definitely superb how she is breathing her principle of life into the whole theme, so that you almost wish the track would never end.

a chance meeting of minds and talents, this surprising new ep comes from a seasoned producer who kicked off the spc series with his stunning 3 part series, alongside a promising new talent whose name is spreading fast in the techno world. jeroen search & markus suckut are the craftsmen in question and this is their first creative output ?working together. >jsms 1.0< introduces us into their world. tough, straight beats pump under a discordant bed of synth tones that build in crescendo that emerges and then carefully dies down. the occasional crack of a lone clap or teasing washes of tape delay add to the tension, as this paranoid moment takes control. a classically warm and minimalist affair, >jsms 4.3< plants a super deep synth theme in our heads before introducing quite a mysterious spoken word, locking us into the vibe without doubt. crisp hats cut through the mix as a perfect tool is born. dub techno excursion >jsms 2.0< is a rough and raw stab track done their way.

the -makeovers- project is a compilation of some of claudes best re-twists, some of which are so far removed they can almost be considered original works. this special edition vinyl includes one of the most sought after remixes, -warpaint- originally by pocket 808 in australia, vonstroke turned this into a late night anthem in 2007. played by techno djs, dubstep djs, and everyone in between this track was never cut to vinyl until now. on the flip side claude remixed the nublu orchestra out of new york. he was never completely happy with the original version of the remix and hes gone back and re-made it into a very special piece of music including a new vocal sample from his wife aundy who also did the vocal effects in whos afraid of detroit? this collection was put together with the theme that a remix can be an inspiring starting point for an entirely new piece of music. these are two of the deeper and darker remixes but we think you agree they are also very special.

this time mr raoul k not only wants you to dance - he wants you to go crazy on the dancefloor. in his well known way he crafts a relentless groover that sends everyone on the floor into the higher state of concsciousness called trance. he layers track upon track and builds a solid grooving base…. for the balafon. a handmade percussion instrument not unlike a marimba that gives guinean music its characteristic flavor. the vocal loop on top draws you deep into the vortex of nested percussion, african melodies und thick baselines. thistrack will never let you go - like moebius band. its main theme will stay in your head for a very long time. it will shake your hips after you left the dancefloor. and it will escort you on your way home after youve left the club. maybe it even serves as a lullaby after a long night out. already tested by Âme with stunning results.

a1 - hot beat: beautiful groove, heavy beat and awesome vocals. what a track to get swde back into the swing of things. absolute killer!
b1 - closer: another super track. heavy beat once it drops, nice deep bass, shuffling percussion and a brilliant vocal sample.
b2 - no you: the heavy beat theme continues on this track, nice bongo percussion and bass line is equally as heavy as the beat. cool chopped vocal sample, deep disco house at its very best!

horror disco melds these soundtrack and aural ideas with a 100% disco album. one that drifts away from most of the soulful elements of disco and one that is dirtier, warmer and less polished than contemporary scandinavian nu-disco. the album is wide and varied - slashdance gives us a goblin-esque robo-vocoder-disco, roger bacon is pure cosmic groove, whilst the italo-disco-thriller disco for the devil features the vocals of italian-based, uk-born session master douglas meakin – who back in the day was lead vocalist in simonetti s easy going and crazy gang cult disco projects.

we are presenting the original theme track for beautiful granville records in its original arrangement as a collectors piece. the track itself is to represent the essence of the beautiful place that is called downtown granville, from its moody energy to the mode and pace of the people who make up this small neck of the woods in chicago. as the track is titled beautiful granville, it is the original recording that sprung to mind and the very track that started the record labels name, mood and energy. limited collectors item on clear blue vinyl, same track on both sides!

their debut three tracker ep has a theme running through it.. yup, its all about sides. first up is a riff you may well know from trevor horn and fgth. they take the tribe groove, slow it down and strip the groove back. using just the riff from the famous 80s monster hit they cunningly carve out >two sides< as their sultry opener. next up >by my side< enlists the help of the handily associated brass section. shuffling grooves, stabby horns and muted picked guitar are the order of the day. its a perfect one for those early dj-set appetizing sections. to round things off we tone it down even further with the beautiful >by my side<. subtle tones, lazy keys and a smouldering groove. when the keys kick in during the last minute its a glorius and sublime treat. stay tuned for more sides.

steady rocking it with music to make you smile, that is a suitable description of wunderbars next new guest, oliver schories. with a string of big releases on labels including parquet, ostwind and musik gewinnt freunde, he is stopping by to >catch a breath<. the original will unfreeze your minds and hearts with his sun-warmed and soulful trademark. the ep is filled with a solid remix pack of surprises, started with a folklorish bonfire-romantic from zusammenklang by switching the theme in ambient. finally we are equally excited to welcome eadward to our label family with a housey retouch of the title track, which will likely be heard in clubs. the wunderbar imprint thinks outside the box when it comes to dealing out the house goods.

peter presto is not only the founder of pingipung, he is also the chap who did the first release on the label in 2002. since then all of his dub sounds have been available on 7inches, cause its simply the best format for these little gems. for summer of seven he has reworked a theme from a classic computergame adventure in his very own vivid, happy-go-lucky dub style. peter loves the melodies!

these are only a few of many excellent appraisals for kasper bjørkes second album >standing on top of utopia< which was released in april last year and followed by strong singles and remixes from the album, most recently >heaven< with mixes by nicolas jaar, muzzle flash and prins thomas. with the >symptoms< ep we are happy to present an ep full of brandnew material. while we wait for kaspers next solo album, currently in production and set for a 2012 release, here is a treat of new and unreleased material for you! other than the rather vocal driven singles >young again<, >alcatraz< or >heaven< these four new instrumentals contain both slow disco vibes and rave style anthems. >symptoms< is a constantly moving, synth driven bastard, that provides a crunchy baseline and a wonderfully strange theme that is hard to get your head around. if this track was a movie, it would be x-rated and only shown after midnight - exactly around the time where you would drop this on the dancefloor and look forward to what happens. - initial pressing in coloured yellow vinyl!

surprising release by gerd on the basement series with an old classic themed techno track he found on a dusty dat tape while archiving some old recordings. somehow a traditional techno track with metalic basslines, stellar string sounds and retro futuristic vocals with a classic theme... time & space. the original slower paced version did get an reshape/makeover that gives it a 2011 update that will be a standard record in the box for many! remixers on duty are rotterdams duplex duo who are back in business and deliver two remixes. timeless tracks that will stand out between all dj tools!

horse meat disco member luke howard debuts the miss cheesecake nom de plume for a shiny vinyl release on the venerable london institution otherwise known as faze action records. electronic bass and piano action abounds on >get off the floor< which features some delightfully lo-fi robotic vocals and a relentlessly driving groove, while >you must create<, which features lukes own vocals, is dripping in neon-tinged 80s dancefloor sweat. sharing the flipside is a typically lush proto house remix of >you must create< from label chiefs faze action which really could be the theme tune to a 1983 moustache-riddled cop action flick set in san francisco, alongside an instrumental version of the original cut<

another pure remix 12 inch on falkplatz. mild pitchs dplay and irishman mano le tough took over the studio this time to create their interpretations of >i wont stop<, the track by subbroomassociation that was originally released on the >collabs volume one ep< on falkplatz_daten002. dplay concentrates on the vocals and distinctive hat patterns, building a warm, pushing and dark floorfiller around the original theme. mano le tough delivers a stand-out remix, in a slightly different mode to his past productions on dirt crew or mirau. here he pushes into the deeper layers of emotive housemusic. listen loud and have fun with this!

special restock !!! latin edged house / techhouse to detroit techno trax - incl carl craig dub mix !!

its now more than 20 years that arnaud le texier started his dj career in the west of france and in the paris club scene. since he moved to london five years ago, le texier has been able to put his stamp on the european techno scene, being label head of safari electronique and regular dj at fabric. his debut ep for cocoon recordings is borne by le texiers deep understanding of melancholy melodies, especially >elusanes< with its piano keystrokes coming directly from the basement and the ample detroit strings proves with hymn-like intensity that deep sensuality and unquestioning dancefloor ecstasy can be two sides of the same medal. besides a beat-less version of >elusanes<, the hypnotic >nightleads< with its bass guitar theme does already whet your appetite for the next sunrise in the balearic dunes

in 2009 the internationally acclaimed german director tom tykwer (perfume, run lola run, the international) supervised a film project in kenyas largest township kibera together with his wife marie steinmann. they put together a team of international film pros that each mentored one film student and helped them put together the movie soul boy. a story about a boy who has to go on a journey to rescue his fathers soul from a mysterious voodoo women.
the result of xavers score is a percussive journey reminiscent of minimal music from the 60s paired with african vibes but completely void of world music cliches. its closer to krautrock and steve reich than to the commonly shallow perception of indigenous music by first world movie directors. full of odd sounding kalimbas and plucky guitars, backed by heavy orchestral drumming and floating e-bows.

appearances is the fourth release for neurhythmics recordings, and here juergen takes matters a step further with the main track >appearance 1<. african chants meet almost psychedelic disco with a layered string that lures you into the break. the whole track flips half-way through and intensifies to yet another level..be ready to be surprised… on the b-side, appearances 2 and 3 are equally influenced by the african theme running through this ep, with vocal chants weaving in and out of his almost trademark crafted mpc-beats

after his successful first vinyl release as echtzeit on melted recordings (mtd.001), with very positive feedback by many djs, the producer frank rumpelt tried a different view on the theme (echtzeit now as title) in various styles of techno. 3 tracks - a bit more electro with harmonics - are listening music and dance floor compatible, too. plus 3 locked grooves we have 6 tracks on this vinyl. this record comes in a premium outer and inner sleeve cover. its a re-release from 2002 because so many demand this time!

limited run of 300 copies with din-a3 artwork included clear your throat. understand. sometimes. only sometimes. there is this feeling that there are people out there, illuminated people with a plan. where the music, the approach, the images, the design, the artwork, everything is flowing together and leading into a common transcendent theme. meet ctf 2 by bruno gauthier. a (can we say this, bruno?) veteran updating the epic gospel which was started by the mysterious one with a boom - the boom which broke the nothingness. the spark of inspiration has arrived in this universe. >existing reality< is a teslaesque algorithm for the universal prescription of all antidotes. it is basic and complex. it offers a minimal lushness, a universe within a universe. flip this galaxy. >music takes control< is a maelstrom that sucks all gravity away into the anti matter zone. its razor sharp vortex cutting away the peels of space and time, a radical march of nouveau deepness. or is it steepness? ctf is on base 2, the next beachhead for world domination.

following up his massive >theme< on numbers comes the second outing from slackk, backed by the debut release from hervey jenkins.
slackks >synthetic< on the a side is a bumpy house track boasting a strong sub bass and shuffling hi-hats. meanwhile hervey jenkins brings classic uk garage sounds with >steelo< on the b side, with swinging 2-step drums and soulful vocals, this verson is exclusive to the vinyl release. this release has been receiving support from brackles, jackmaster, blackdown, blawan, dubbel dutch & hackman.

the eighth edition of cocoon recordings 10inch series leads us to berlin, where martin müller and daniel stroeter are working under the alias youandme as djs, label managers and producers for labels such as rotary cocktail, 2020vision and compost for more than 15 years now. >raw” is the ultimate soundtrack for the very special acoustic comprehension both musicians have in setting an absolute imperative on the dancefloor by constantly rising noise levels, but without ever neglecting the funk. living in berlin for only a short time, 23-year-old ilario alicante from tuscany / italy has made his appearance by releasing records for cécille, break new soil or sci+tec over the last three years, especially >vacaciones en chile< was an essential part of the club summer 2008. >balance< purifies modern house music down to its essences, using a 2-minute break with a central organ theme to keep your synapses tightly clenched before a massive bass kick unlocks the tension. just a perfect acoustic devotement to the balance of the raw.

dutch producer van dongen arrives back on audiomatique - almost 5 years since his first outing - hate to say o.k in 2006 - we welcome back his tough, refined and urgent electronic stylings. vulcanic ass gets straight to the point with a gyrating, cyclic attitude that simply cannot be ignored. bouncing bass, sharp drums and an anthemic pitching synth theme provide a blissful yet party-assured climax! barcelona boys audiofly hand in a dynamic and inventive remix that fuses live drum loops with drier, more resolute moments than the original. carefully engineered and executed, its a modern incarnation of the the duos earlier tech-house sound.
