here it is the first official ost on permanent vacation: gutterballs. gutterballs, by ryan nicholson, is a groovy, sleazy and pretty dang gory grindhouse revival slasher in the vein of the great 80 s horrorfilms. the film takes place during a midnight disco bowl-a-rama at a popular bowling alley, which leads directly to the great soundtrack by gianni rossi, who composed a mix between classic, goblin-esque, synthie flavoured, horror-movie soundscapes and uplifting italo pop/rock.

who the hell are bleep district i hear you ask? well for those of you who havent heard their awsome debut on replay records they are matt powell a founding dj of the legendary quadrant soundsystem and the inappropriately nicknamed matt rhythm who rumour has it spends his spare time pressing random buttons as one half of deep house anti-heroes rhythm plate. coming straight out of leftfield, bleep district have exploded onto the deep house scene like a musical gas leak. their quirky, chunky, dancefloor orientated beats causing serious damage on dancefloors and working mens clubs around the counrty. these two devout christians and still practising altar boys have decided to continue the religious theme of the bleep of faith ep on the highly respected winding road and titled their debut for ornate music… end days ep. revelations (rapture rub) kicks of the ep with a clearly deluded shaun ryderesque gentleman professing his faith over a big moody analogue bass and detroit style stabs on a track that would make the staunchest non believers begging for absolution! and on revelations (pillar of salt dub) they take things nice and deep for those more reflective moments in the evening.

phat neo disco compilation with works by keen k., infinitynight, aldo bergamachine, kinky roland, young monday, p. muench, vision talk, brian e, antilles, chinese theatre & s.c.d.

its 4 years that paul hadnt released any tracks (except remixes) on his own label but on and on is here to demonstrate that he hasnt lost his unique sense of vintage sound. a deep and melodic club tune! on the b side, we are very proud to offer 2killer remixes by a neighbour and a friend: julian jeweil. the strong bass line of the first vision makes it even more efficient than the original one. a must have for sure on this remix, julian jeweil added some crisp percussive elements with the mainmelodic theme behind that raise slowly but surely. this vision 2 will cause damage on the dancefloor.

stevie kotey & max essa first salon de l herbe ep was released via electric minds in may 2008 providing a twisted journey of dub, disco and electronica and given the thumbs up world-wide by todays elite producers & djs . the standard continues with the 2nd ep, which sticks to the same theme in providing three deep and underground cuts. the live drums, guitars and slick arrangement provide a musical journey that sounds immense when piped through any decent club system. >1986< will provide a great vibe for any club while >1978 it felt great< & >guitars< balearic feel will be perfect for this summer. all in all three amazing tracks

release #100 by tresor records, made in 1998, comes with 9 classic techno tunes by artists like christian vogel, regis, pacou, infiniti, heiko laux, blake baxter and more.

mossa shows up with his third release on mos ferry prod. and he demonstrates again that his productions shouldnt be missing in any record case. the title and a1 track ransack holds some solid subs, a nice and kinky drum kit including a petit but also significant drive. right next to it comes the ransack remix by andomat 3000 that pushes the whole theme more towards a swinging and rocking house tune. on the flip dark love reveals - as the name implies - a dark & noisy track topped with a sonorous vocal that shouldnt be ignored. with toms and hats from the music electronics supply store b2 make the noise is an excellent example for controlled rhythm & sound that puts a perfect finishing touch to this release. we love to say: make the noise, please make the noise!

(incl. williams rmx s) ltd red coloured 12 ! following love on a real train , poltergeist , williams promises to bring some loving feeling back to dancefloors around the world !

after the inclusion of crushed by actress on the most recent prime numbers ep, we return with three tracks from one of our favourite contemporary producers. ghosts have a heaven is a heavily stripped down, minimally constructed piece built on a heavyweight kick drum whilst given movement and accentuated by filtered synth washes and sub bass which change subtly throughout the track. side 2 is taken by two tracks from the actress debut full length release on his own werk discs. hazyville is a twisted piece of electro funk expertly compressed and crackling with static energy. superb locking & popping lace the track sounding something like the avant gardism of subway theme from the wild style o.s.t pushed confidently into 2009. ext up redit 124 provides a deep clipped jackin groove with a glitchy feel. the beats are worked & moulded along with fizzing synths and jerky keys to produce a quality hybrid of sounds with its own idiosyncratic style firmly in place.

a brooding, belligerent, open top, ocean drive, wind in your hair eighties disco theme. very 80s. a perfect storm of dark synths and disco beats... where every dance floor is a crime scene.

flowers that fell (already been picked up on by steve lamacq for radio 1) is an irresistible, chiming mid 80s indie guitar melody, an ascending punchy smiths-esque bassline locked in with dfa-esque drums. >the far< builds on the emotive theme of the a-side: footsteps and a gunshot begin the military drum march. an insistent drum roll and a descending bassline take the story to the frontline

minus has released a first rate selection of home grown artist albums over the past 18 months, with heartthrob, false and gaiser all creating long players of real substance and this trend is set to continue in 2009 with arguably the label’s most significant release of recent times. louderbach’s long awaited second album autumn represents another jump in the evolutionary cycle of minimal techno, having developed from the largely instrumental project that gave us enemy love into a fully-fledged song based outfit. as a result, autumn has a much deeper feel than its predecessor and indeed breaks new ground, with the dark metaphors of gibby miller’s often chilling vocal performances fitting hand-in-glove with the ominous landscapes and broken architecture that troy pierce constructs so effectively. drawing on shared influences such as bauhaus, coil and joy division, the duo have conceived an album of emotional depth and exquisite detail, appropriating the best elements of these early-eighties pioneers and reinterpreting them through a contemporary lens to achieve a perfect balance of style and content. it’s the result of an unspoken understanding that spans thousands of miles from their respective homes in l.a. and berlin and this distant intimacy is a naturally occurring theme throughout the album, manifesting itself as dark, twilight tales of melancholy romance, burning obsession and the slow, disintegration of desire

the hottest theme at the winter music conference this year! syke n sugarstarr with an amazing track called toda a minha vida. great vocals from bonny ferrer and a huge remix package by mad mark, and the italian shooting stars daddys groove! plays: axwell, agent greg, dr kucho, michael moor, alex gaudino, antoine clamaran, andrea belli...

electrohouse monster using the classic lenny kravitz theme!!

emotional and still deep techhouse !! great !!!

massive club anthem with this well known irresistible theme!!

finally four brand new tracks, in pure classic cheers party style. two with a deep electro feeling, the kind we like over here in paris, rough and simple, with a dark tone and strong percussions. check especially the frame, a very special abstract track that you may enjoy right from the first listening. the cheers theme and night on earth are more in the old school garage vein (a sound that really comes back on the dancefloors those days), happy, melodic, uplifting, this is pure cheers party heaven! dedicated to all the cheers addicts!

reinterpretation of the classic high energy -theme by yoko mono, made for force tracks in 2002.

incl lucca doobie (heimatmelodie, acker, off) remix!! soundselective debuts with millys own release >encounters ep< - a space inspired three tracker with luca doobie on remix duties. >encounters< is a groovy minimal slice of electronica with a riff that is an ode to the tracks title and features some superb tension and builds to create maximum dancefloor impact. luca doobie takes the originals dark and atmospheric theme one step further, turning out a driving percussive roller with some dark quirky grooves. >shibuya 109< rounds off the package and is a chugging tech house track built around funky synths, spacey sounds and calibrated electronic percussions. a sparse vocal sample recorded inside the tokyo ginza metro line adds some real feeling to the groove of the track. this is a sterling start to the soundselective records and is not to be missed

supported by adam beyer, josh wink,ben klock, style of eye, joel mull, cari lekebusch, pan pot, ambivalent,jeremy p caulfield and more..

in contrast to a recurring theme of uninviting releases by labels that seem to offer tracks- so easy to digest they get lost with an un-inspiring and flat feel, the collaboration of hermanez and ramom tapia is a coupling of dark moods and techy deepness, listen even deeper and you?l find a wealth of detail stuffed full of mythical rides push an organ into a dark corner and have it brutally assaulted by a groove-hungry gang of latin approved drums and the outcome is pretty much that of miconns second release. syncopated sturdy percussion and hi hats sit amongst a spring-loaded beat whilst lazy organ keys relax the pace

1996 classic!!

having made his debut in 2006 on rip n burn recordings and also appearing on hadshots 10 year anniversary complation in 2007 under his alias audiolizer, israeli producer matan arkin has forged a style for himself that is both heavy in its orchestral audio mentality while keeping enough low end bounce and grime to be aimed squarely at maximal dancefloor effect. angels strikes a balance directly between sentimental yet bounding tech house and bass driven electro house, creating an end result that is both melodically enthralling and rhythmically grabbing. bordering on the edge of emotion, the simple melody carries the track till its end while an unwavering bass makes itself known without ever dominating the forefront. black is beautiful utilizes the sultry vocals of selecta beats recording artist elisete as the theme around which a slow, simple and naughty groove is built. with the lyrics deviously weaving their way around an ever-transforming musical backing, the song creates itself as a sweltering escapade that doesnt abandon its charm until the last second. mipt shows matan digging deep into his studio dexterity to mold a wildly distinctive piece that borders on the edge of melodic abstraction while still stealthily keeping its grip on a distinguishable degree of mesmerizing harmony. never losing its way through a complex maze of synths and squelches, the song serves as a vivid and vibrant highlight that reminds that plain simplicity isnt the only way to guarantee success on the dancefloor

when surfing on places and spaces like myspace you sometimes bump into something special, a rare diamond. so we of sound architecture did when we got tipped to check out the myspace of this dutch guy named dollkraut. the following week the only music played in our office was his... when we found out to by surprise that dollkrauts music was not signed yet to any label, we did hesitate or think twice and invited dollkraut to one of our events and asked him to do an ep on our label. inspired by artists such as dave brubeck, glenn miller, pepe bradock, recloose, jazzanova and krause duo, its sounds like dollkraut mixed them all in a big shaker, adding some of his secret ingredients. serving a dish to die for.. full colour sleeve with handstamped releaseinfo on whitelabelcopy.

in 2002, carl craig was at the centre of a collaboration between some of detroits most talented musicians old and new, including motown session players percy hughes and ron otis - the result of which was the spellbinding detroit experiment. one of the highlights of this session was their re-interpretation of donald byrd and larry mizells classic think twice, which was transformed into a sublime and unique jazz-house hybrid by this disparate ensemble of techno and r&b heavyweights. to continue the theme laid down by the detroit experiment, we have enlisted the skills of the multi-talented henrik schwarz - no stranger to fusing musical styles. his amazing remix effortlessly combines organic and electronic elements, to create a stirring piece of modern electronic dance music which has already taken the roof off parties across europe and the us, with pre-release plays from djs as diverse as ame, giles smith, justin martin, dixon and kev beadle.

rap sensation cerbral vortex (born in texas but really a citizien of the world) and new kid on the beatmachine erik l (born in stockholm but musically at home in the motor city) present >kitty cat kabbodle< a four track theme ep dealing with love, sex and relationships. featuring the one and only kissey asplund, singer stray and ezekiel 38. love, beats & rhymes - phresh for 2009. cerebral vortex is also making noise as one half of the two man club rap duo 215:the freshest kidz (who have a record out with rustie) and has just released the >vortex cookies< 12inch with robot koch on up my alley. artwork desgined by mike davis.

here comes another tribal club hit produced by the bad boys raf marchesini & simone farina along with max b... pay attention to it.

alec is one of the most-promising acts from east germany at the moment with a very own unique style crossing reduced techno with epic and mystical influences. his debut single >passengers< on etui records brought him very good support from various key-djs like karotte and his last ep >sub aquers< on ipoly music is dreamy grooving the clubs at present, played by laurent garnier etc. >orville< is matching with a teeting drive and its beautiful spheres while alex carbo puts the theme into a powerful minimalistic remix. >not in violet< is a well freaky dancefloor track with some vocoded voices

part 1 of the new double-release from tiefschwarz aims at the heart of house music: soul. “on&on” is a first-class arranged club track. starting off with a wonderful mellow theme, that is adumbrated by the bass line in an one-and-a-half minute long exposition. the track ups the tempo with an additional hi-hat resolving into a shuffle beat. in double time, we move on towards the first break. here an edgy, minor key-chord sequence is introduced, making it obvious for everyone, that this track is gonna take off. eventually the keys function as a counterpoint to the classic bass line. a four-to-the-floor “on&on” vocal sample takes over after the break, adding another percussive aspect. as the track goes on a mulitiplicity of side elements sets in - no room for tediousness! in the end the “on&on” vocals resolve into “it’s so simple… . who knows, but this could be a broad hint to all the tech-house academics out there. no matter what, this grande finale raises a smile from every last sweaty soul on the dancefloor. with “best inn” on the b-side tiefschwarz create a dance classic, dressed in 2009 fashion. reminiscent of long gone nu-groove times, a traditional house beat - including a tiny off-beat tinker bell - blasts out of the speakers. a slured synth-organ provides the track with that certain edgyness. here, the brothers keep it laid-back yet exciting at the same time. this piece goes on and on and on - and you yourself run alongside, not wanting to pause. but watch out! at the latest in the second break, tiefschwarz put nostalgia to the test via some shockingly muffled metal drums. one of these moments, where you wish yourself back into the middle of an eight-hour deep-house set in 1992. the train departs. one thrillingly beautiful landscape after another runs by, until the warm sun strokes of the south suddenly rouse you out of slumber. arrived

rockford inc. is sullivan sawyer and dwight jenkins who put their souls into their computer and see what comes back out. in this case, its >like a rock<, a contemplative slow-burner that spreads itself over 11 minutes. on the b-side, >minas theme< is an uplifting melodic house tune, drenched in optimism, the ideal antidote for dreary dancefloors.

first vinyl pressing of twin infinitives since the original vinyl issue in 1990. after moving to san francisco, royal trux released the highly experimental double album twin infinitives. this album remains an extreme work on the periphery of rock music, worthy of being compared to lou reeds metal machine music and suicides debut album. at only four subdivided tracks, none of which clock in under 15 minutes, the record has plenty of time to weave a mesmerizing web that is sometimes menacing, sometimes startling. for all of its high brow allusions, twin infinitives nearly reeks of vice, a dark, sordid feel pervades the record, and the listener can almost picture the band recording in a filthy apartment in the middle of the night in various states of intoxication and debauchery.

here comes part 2 of the tuxedo band from livio & roby. grand final evolved from a co-operation with george g. these guys really know how to work the crowd. truly a sure shot. in amonte is a deep and monotone track with a funky bassline and constantly changing percussive elements as well as bells and guitars which define the melodic theme. if the first part was right up your alley the second part will leave you flabbergasted. a simply huge release

featuring kid sister (fools gold), pase rock (spank rock/five deez), dj assault, nina sky, pitbull, diamond k, the federation, stimulus, michelle bell, and others!! first proper baltimore club artist album!!!!!

neo-trance theme !!! angels of kindness are seesawing in their fluffy clouds while eavesdropping the new opus - and yes, one can easily call it an opus - of catekk. dunning the sound creeps up (up from the viennese flex club?) through this mundane labyrinth. muse awakened the apocalyptic riders with its kiss and instead of the twilight of gods you are served subtle grooves, which only admit zeus sharp lightning to pass through the thunderclouds of bass. thunderstorm and labyrinth makes, how could it else be? a markus lange remix, who obviously enjoyed remixing this big theme, while following catekks traces in the wind. whos still missing? yes, newbornchristians must be around, when it comes to remixes with the perfect relation between foolishness and intelligence.

epic disco vol. 1 is the first compilation on rollerboys recordings and there are more to come. this release presents different styles of epic music from the symphonic and melodic to the dubby & dreamy. featuring ilya santana, motorcycle boy / fabrizio mammarella, bogdan irkük and ultracity.

featured on mr tejadas fabric mix cd ! >fractals< explores the inner musical geometry of john tejada’s electronic productions in 3 varieties. the opening track >fractals< builds driving, rhythmic layers, evolving modular blips and atmospheres which then reduce to reveal the elements that lie beneath. >the open< is a featured track on tejadas fabric 44 mix. just like a warm cup of morning coffee in your hand, it gives the feeling of a fresh new day and the possibilities that lie ahead. an ethereal piece that may remind some of tejadas classic melodic moments. continuing the nostalgic theme is the aptly titled >better days< a piano chord driven track which brings to mind classics from long ago, but with a tejada twist.

nice price deal !!! cover version of the theme tune of entourage, originally by tv on the radio. includes dbn, jansen & michael mind mixes.

ruede hagelsteins the modest theme has proven to be one of souvenirs most provocative releases so far. released in the summer, the tracks dramatic horn hook is so epic it belongs in a science fiction film and as a piece of forward thinking techno, it ranks among one of souvenirs best. now the track is back with a remix from souvenir spearheads tiefschwarz alongside a new track from berlin based ruede. semikolon is another dark and dubby deep tech-housy outing for ruede that begins with a dramatic spoken word by naneci and ominous organ stabs. as the track progresses it takes on a chicago house vibe re-imagined at 10am in the panorama bar. an urgent bell begins to ring through the track raising the tension as the vocal intones a surreal chant before giving way to huge synth stabs that lead the track into a slow motion emotional explosion. just when things can get any more hectic the crescendo sinks to silence compressing the energy before the beats emerge back in their earlier deep house guise. ali and bast schwarz take their turn at remixing the modest theme fresh from their incendiary remix of emad kamandians kamanche for souvenir 012. the signature dramatic horn riff remains albeit injected with new percussion lending the track a tough tech house appeal that places it within the context of 2008s underground house sound. both tracks are another addition to souvenirs impressive collection of music aimed at the head just as much as they are at the heart and feet.

the next big thing to come out of denmark! exclaims trentemoller and he should know as he is the brains behind this album. beautiful music and vocals with a dark and eerie sound. pressed on 180 gram vinyl and comes in a full color gatefold sleeve.

omanko is the only word that is unmentionable in japanese media and public speech. its also the next single from catz n dogz - a strange hybird of cinematic swells, quirky natural drums and popping guitar plucks. its unorthodox groove builds relentlessly, anchored by a shouting chorus and warm bass bubbles that swell from the depths like some massive ancient sea creature. they take their time building to the climax, finishing the track with late-entering keyboard theme that quickly swirls into a frenzy. perfect for tipping that peaktime crowd over the edge! the italoboyz remix completely remolds the groove to fit their distinctive vision, seamlessly integrating shards from the original into their tension-fuelled agenda. breakdowns of varying sizes dominate the sonic landscape, as their annihilating kick plays hide and seek with the strings throughout the track. finally, all the elements are reunited by the echo-drenched vocal line and percussive baritone sax stabs – a satisfying finale to this latenight masterpiece.

repress, 4 classic jeff mills tracks

in the huge world of >various artists< this is the one you will absolutely remember ! on the side a pizeta is the track of this ep. a melody you cant surely forget and will make you dance. in the jungle of ethno-folk, it s the massive one! a great clarinet theme is followed by tech house minimal rhythm and a nice bassline. on the side b1 we have the promising producer federico grazzini who is known for his last ep on >aloe< played by all the big names of the moment. for this ep he delivers another dancefloor bomb. already played by marco carola at dc10 this summer. the b2 is a real b2, more deep and good for the warm up. arnaud le texier (safari electronique) & emmanuel ternois (children of tomorrow) close this ep with a sensual deep house modern.

excellent funkin nyc disco edits, very rare stuff

deep and fresh innovative minimal house/ techno 3 tracker. from the first beat on the bass drives through the stamping groove, tears away vocal snatches and sound fragments like acoustical driftwood and heads straight for the peak. the flip side comes along a bit calmer without being less powerful and surprises with a deep vocal theme. the package is rounded by laufmasche s forensic remix which again reflects his unique style.

gerard hanson hails from the unlikely environments of dallas, texas usa. his music has influences from derrick may, stefan robbers, red planet and carl craig.. he released his first 12inch in 1995 on matrix / detroit. after that he released on labels like tektite recordings, down low, ai records, frustrated funk, frantic flowers and aw recordings. he is very careful about sharing his music with the rest of the world. in the last decade he only used the aliases convextion and e.r.p. (event related potential). e.r.p is an electro-edged moniker....

remixes by dmx krew & junior sanchez

another quality dmx krew masterpiece we at turbo are longtime fans of dmx krew, so its a real honor to work with him again 6 years after his last contribution to our now defunct sub-label white leather. we dont normally trace an artists history or include much biography in our press releases, but we feel the need in this case to pay our respects to a long and brilliant career. with all the crap that gets paraded around nowadays its easy to forget who the real masters are... ed dmx is one of them. ive always held a soft spot for ed, he was one of my favorite producers in the proto-electro heyday. hearing his live version of the knight rider theme at sona (tigas club circa 96) was (believe it or not) a revelation. of all the artists id met up until then, he was the coolest, he could play synths better than anyone id ever heard, he had the balls to do vocals in his live-set but he was a sweet, softspoken, and super funny guy. for reasons ive never understood, eds pop side didnt seem to take off and for awhile things took a distinctly experimental turn... interesting stuff, but a departure

baker street sits perfectly alongside such great french labels as robsoul and brique rouge and fittingly, phil weeks delivers a trademark deep and soulful groove for lead track. 3 variations on the theme, but label bosses holmes & watz step out of their familiar territory for a smoking hip hop joint to round the ep off. baker street offer a top notch ep that would get even the good dr watson nodding his head to.

when ibizas dream theme and cult djs of the island cesar de melero, tuccillo and dj pippi come together for a production called «el amor es mas», you can be sure, that it will be something with an unmistakable balearic sound and groove. in fact here we go with the first release of this 3 musketeers on purple tracks with a selection of various mixes to choose including a jamie lewis remix for the darker room
