played by mathias kaden, sebo k, tobi neumann, karotte....there is a date this year in autumn you should keep in mind: the release of marcel knopfs first album on mos ferry. being a dj marcel knopf is used to fathom genre boundaries and now and then he dives into dubstep, electronica and realms of pop. with the single dusty dance you get a foretaste of the upcoming congenial longplayer. in its own way, his single enables an acoustic addiction of a thrilling style mix. these two tracks move in between smart techno and grooving illustrious house and points out, that knopf doesnt want to be bound to one musical direction. the title track and a-side of the single >dusty dance< is one of the floor fillers of his album. get ready for an enthralling groove, a monster break and a hook, where any bias against trumpets in the club is blown away. on the b-side youll find the oldschool frickling house track >rec-chord<, which reflects knopfs addiction for the beloved vinyl format. go out and get yourself a physical copy, to hear this nice and comfortable sizzling noise. its the best way to get a charming club feeling. and always remember: who buys first, may listen longer!

in these >post-heater< days it is not so crazy to hear of a kazoo being used in a track, but when style of eye first released >the big kazoo< on dirtybird it wasnt just a sample loop, it was an incredibly innovative usage of the sound - mangled in all the right ways. in 2009 style of eye returns with 3 more monster club tracks. these are the kind of jams that simply work at the club. they arent hard to mix and they arent hard to understand. they are big dirtybird tracks that simply never fail the dancefloor

christopher spero a.k.a glimpse has really made a name for himself the way that producers and djs in this day and age should: by making tasteful music of the highest caliber, and putting substance over style. these two tracks co-produced with frequent collaborator and head of the hypercolour label, alex jones, put that said taste on display in a refined and elegant form of house music.true friends pumps right from the beginning with a chunky rolling kick drum only made denser by the thick brushing percussion that surrounds it. before the beats become to overwhelming a soothing male vocals drifts in reminding how hard it is these days to find a true friend. a stark tune of epic proportions. returning with a similar pressure from drum programming aesthetic, which basically means hefty percussion layered over warm and tumbling drums. æcambria sets itself apart from the a-side with a more open-air vibe. light piano notes float along side softly played wind instruments, creating a surreal dreamlike audio experience that still has the tools to do damage on the dance floor. glimpse and alex jones have really put some true style, grace and class into their music. masters at creating a distinctive sound that exist in the space where warm and lush tones meet musicality and stimulation. a summer record with good vibes scrawled all over it.

for this the second release on irish dj jamie behans label bastardo electrico. the unstoppable soul controller dj bone provides three mutant strains of unearthly detroit techno. from the funky jacking bassline driven strain 3 to the the offkilter electronics of strain 4 and the deeply emotive strain 5 all three tracks speak of a futuristic world where the robots have taken control. however, as these three tracks demonstrate, the robots have got the funk.

oliver dahl returns with another premium ep on noir music. his outstanding productions have been getting serious attention ever since his very first rien on noir music.
on this new 3ep we got the typical techno rolling oliver dahl track mira , the noisy and driving havardt and the melodic sako to show all the colours of the oliver dahl techno world.
we believe this man is up there with the best and if you hear a little dubfire and gui boratto in these productions, well - you might not be wrong.
the elite will be rocking the 3ep all summer - what about you ?

the rustys crew strike again ! no 4 on the label and another expertly mined duo of underground classics first up we have the awesome savarese produced 1979 killer >come inside my love< from bonnie oliver championed by ron hardy at the seminal music box, this uptempo vocal joint still sounds fresh 30 years after its original release !! on the flip we have the ludicrously rare & sought after >good love< by rome jefferies, a celebrated and super soulful boogie joint released in 1983 on the crazy rare rain label. both tracks have been remastered and are essential additions to any serious collection, not to mention impossible to find elsewhere ! as usual, theres only a small number of these around - 500 in fact, so dont delay as we have a >first come, first served< policy on the limited goods

delusions hits the spot once again with number 3, this time highlighting the production skills of a certain zepp001. the seattle based disco obsessive has been leaking out high class edits over the years under a dizzying array of deliberately forgettable pseudonyms but feels the time is right to push his original tracks. who better then to make these beauties available for you discerning djs than delusions of grandeur. dont sleep is a dark, brooding groover with throbbing bass, cute cuica fills and intense strings that lalo schifrin would be proud of. a real heavy mood setter and as good an introduction to the sound of zepp001 as you re likely to need. next up we have the mighty revenge in for remix duties on dont sleep. the much hyped master of the edit keeps the vibe of the original well and truly in place but opts for an even more stripped back approach leaving all the space for crisp claps, slowly building strings and bowel wobbling bass. flip over for giraffe, a more upbeat affair where the filtered keys come to the fore and things steer in a hyped up deep house direction. show your luv...

another mouthwatering viper beatz release sees the daylight and this bombshell is guaranteed to devastate the dance floors on a global scale. live a lie a jewel in the typical way only g town madness & the viper can create, breathes brilliance and has not only been receiving heavy dj support from the total top in hardcore such as endymion, nosferatu, tomyknocker, dj panic and evil acitivies, but is also to be found on major compilations like hardcore to the bone xiii, and in qontrol. with its impressive anthem break live a lie brings unity and gets back to that true feeling of hardcore: come as one! envy shows the raw side of these craftsman resulting in an ear piercing, raging, full in your face hardcore track yet without losing any of the true g town madness & the viper feel. the result is a raw hardcore bomb, as probably many would not expect from this magical duo. crazy edits, weird synth patterns and freaked distorted bone shattering kick drums bring a refreshingly different taste within g town madness & the viper releases till date. current dj support by the likes of partyraiser, neophyte, tha playah and outblast. when angerfist heard cliffhanger, he decided to give it an angerfist refix. gtm and the viper were so pleasantly surprised when they heard this, they immediately decided to let everyone enjoy this fine piece of rework. after circulating within the hardcore scene for quite a while also this tune will leave a mark on the hardcore scene as we know it.

h.o.s.h. the specialist for extraordinary releases on diynamic is back with two wonderful tracks, which groove like hell and bristle with ideas. just like we know this hamburg boy and just like he develops his level always a step more. and we are very happy that >audiofly< are on board, too! these two sympathic boys don t just rock anywhere they appear, but their productions are also an essential part of any good party. h.o.s.h. and audiofly, i think i turn crazy! a1: h.o.s.h. – better and sweet b1: h.o.s.h. – better and sweet (audiofly remix) b2: h.o.s.h. feat. markus homm – funk king

stephan laubner s stl project returns on his something imprint with another great, deep and soulful vinyl release where he illuminates even more corners of his universe. retro stylish melodies between raw and rough house beats with the unstoppable affectation for long evolving grooves. these tracks easily break through the sound barrier and moving supersonically on dancefloors and places beyond. a voyage, which has it s roots in the dark. at a place where spirit comes from. music out of the inner galaxy where emotions and thoughts get born, all captured and channeled through oldschool equipment direct to your speakers. these sounds are part of something. something you can not see, but somehow, you know it s definitely there. get inside, and enjoy the unseen voyage.

usgs melodic and driving arrangements are highlighted on these two sound system bangers. title cut is a forceful house track, destined for the big room, and the flipside its magic is a hypnotic and warm cut that will induce a trance with layered synth lines. big with ron trent in japan.

david & kelly team up for >when love takes over<, a prelude to the new album. these are the remixes by laidback luke, albin myers and abel ramos.

flying circus music, returns with its second release, this time rocking the deep, extended, dramatic house vibes of radio slaves interpretations of humates love stimulation. the new-berliner matt edwards took his popularity from underground to overground, and right back round again. the world-travelling dj founded his solid, big room production style while his infamous bootleg and remix work was a mainstay of the uk electronic scene. now, with the strength of his rekids label and his unmistakable production approach, he re-works this early classic of german techno/trance élove stimulation into two remarkable slow burning epics. the >full length vox remix< builds from very opening bars, carefully combining classic house sensibilities with a totally free and organic, long flowing arrangement. at over 15 minutes, its a heavy weight tool for those late, hedonistic hours! carrying on the blissed out theme, weare also treated to a panorama garage remix, that bears a more raw, jacking house vibe, with its straight up beats and deeply-swung chord stabs. radio slave is a master at keeping things ear-tinglingly stripped, yet still filling the room with power, energy and tension. these two remixes certainly pay their dues to classic days gone by, but they also stand out as superb examples of the modern state of house. judging by this release its still as strong as it ever was!!

our home artists are back on the label after a successfull album released on get phisycal music last summer. for this new output on circus company the two hat brothers delivers a unik two tracker based on that recette they got the secret from… first of all encore, the a side, is a dj friendly oriented track that will reminds you one of the early nôze output on circus company called pofamika which was released in 2005. the track is basicly composed by a strong bass line that keeps rollin rollin rollin and rollin over a solid beat and a few significative >nôzy< pads. all these elements are surrounded by a beautifull girl voice which quietly tells you what to do to relax. sexy french voice !!! you wish you could see her charming face between the grooves of the record… on b side, here is the message : meet me in the toilet! whats inside… well sounds like a quite nice groovy party. here comes the nôze with their horn horny sexion and chior duet.

the second release on the clone loft supreme series... the disco dons of elitechnique with the much sought after munich emotions track (which previously was released as limited test pressing of 100 copies which changed hands for big amounts on ebay and discogs) and double destiny on the flip. munich emotions is an epic disco track full of live instruments, old analogue synths all recorded in their own studio. the flip has the new school-ish disco track called double destiny. a super sweet track that goes somewhere inbetween metro area and putsch 79 but with a more epic arrangement. these guys did a hell of a job!! classic tracks that already got big support!

phantasma volume 2 by dinky, matthew styles and pier bucci is out now. this lovingly designed record is produced by three artists we really like and and it is just grea they decided to work with us again. matthew is damn sure one of our favourite producers and pier s skills are nothing short of his. on the last release we made with them, they d worked together as oblique strategies on balld inc. for phantasma volume 2 pier wrote a track on his own, highlighting the noble beats he is known for and expanding the explicit cadenced patterns with a chord phrase that leads the structure to perfection. dinky whose work was released on such labels as cocoon, traum, vakant and of course on her own imprint horizontal composed the other side together with matthew and you can sense their familiarity at once. the two arranged >choises< carefully, sleek and free of any kind of hubris. well, this attitude is hart to find these days and their versed piece may calm your stressed out ears both in the club and at home

playmobil is going very strong with already the eighth release! after a string of very succesfull releases by liberto, mihalis safras, mark broom, glitches, sunchase and simone tavazzi, dandi & ugo (great stuff / syndikaat etc.) are the next to rock! with their italian dancefloor orientated minimal techno these guys sure know how to use their skills! another winner from the boys from playmobil!

after releasing his first lp on ai records in 2008 we proudly welcome datassette on echoecho. let s just say that this is the outcome of an interference of majestic strings, amazing basslines and deeply compounded beats. besides rocking the dancefloor mr davies definitely knows how to draw attention with his craft.these thrilling compositions reach from the hymnic ôthe aviatrixö to the laidback and atmospheric ômicroö and back to the superior and bassheavy ôhumansö before ending with the melancholic piece of ôweather conditionsö. datassette conveys a large variety of influences which create his absolutely outstanding deep sound. in other words he manages to merge the atmosphere of then and the vision of now to transfer the sound onto his own bright level.

incl remixes by marek hemmann and till von sein !! dirt crew, martin eyerer.. right at the point where everyone stopped believing that the label owners themselves would do a release on baalsaal,it comes flying right around the corner! finally at catalogue number 009 chopstick & johnjon decide to put their best horse into the race and team up with no other than fritz kalkbrenner - the voice behind the early summer anthem >sky and sand< with his brother paul kalkbrenner. the beat of the original mix bounces from the first minute on, supporting the chords and the bassline while they work their changes. at the point when fritz starts the first verse you get this feeling... this is gonna be special - and indeed it will be... the catchy chorus and the beauty of everything surrounding it makes you wanna sing along, dance and dream away the night... and we didn t get to the break and the strings yet ... yes, there will be strings. so get ready and breathe in 11 minutes of deep feelings and emotions! on b1 is a remix by marek hemmann, who had great impact with his productions and remixes on labels such as freude am tanzen, raum musik and resopal. you can see how much fun he had working with these vocals!..

after a little winter hiatus, the selfmade millionaire returns offering two fresh treats of escapism in these hard times of recession and depression: rockin & poppin tells the simple story of a surprise-party at 2am over at mr. bs where our protagonist is overwhelmed by the extreme density of funky music and ladies. so he gets down right away to rock it, pop it and break it on down, end of story. a rare and honest piece of music for both the breaker and the modern soul affectionado! heading for depression on the other hand reminds us of the dire situation our economy is in, while it encourages to keep the boogie going anyway even though lifes getting rougher and tougher day by day. equipped with a groove so heavy its got a moon in orbit, this serious choon will cause blissful oblivion on any dancefloor.

some spicy latin salsa to heat up the dancefloor at your tropical dance party! there s nothing quite like listening or dancing to good strong latin music, and i m not talking about wishy washy bossa nova or boring rumbas that your mum and dad danced to on their honeymoon cruise in the caribbean. i m talking about tropical rhythms that make your hips grind and jiggle, complex, crazy beats that make your feet take on a life of their own, hypnotic piano and blasting horns that whirl around inside your head, intensifying an already exotic experience. it doesn t matter if you don t understand the lyrics, the fun is all there in the vibrant atmosphere and the knowledge that you re listening to pro musicians making seriously exciting music.
when it comes to proper latin, there are loads of bands to choose from. most of them don t get a peep outside of their local communities, it appears that the latinos are only too happy to enjoy their own music, and so what if the rest of the world can t hear it? not so orcestra esencia - this west coast usa outfit can give it some if they really have to. check out these two irresistible tracks. tropical dancefloor salsa at its finest. now that s what i call bangin latin!
we re not the macnamaras, and we re not leaders of men. we are an east bay salsa band, the finest in the land. we play at wakes and weddings, and every fancy ball. we cancel playing funerals, to play the carnival!

beeing together in the studio for a while - here s the results: take me to mabayi features a nine minute ecstating ride - accentuated by a pulsating, hypnotic, rhythmic and gradually building melody and compelling breakdown. 100% sure with ricardo villalobos, loco dice, mathias kaden. la trutruka - golden version combine emotive slackin house beats with synthesizer washes and constant, rolling rhythmic underlay, straight and right down to the last detail with the la trutruka riff - for those who knows and some vocal samples. these are three small dissertations that connect rhythm based house-paced hills with modern dance music and experiments with synthetic song structures

the best comes last, that is also our opinion and we are proud to present 2 amazing tracks before we take a little summer break. again with a new artist on our ostwind sailer. the young bulgarian ataneus gives his debut on the a side. with >20 years of democracy< he shows us a lyrical, energetic and detroit flavoured track which builds on and on and will definitely rock the floors. an excellent debut how we think and we look forward to his forthcoming tracks. on the flip cosmic cowboys give their vinyl debut on ostwind, too. here on fofftein they come with the anthem >deep is a message<. shallow depth, fluffy, with massive compression of course, and as the name implies rounded down with deepness, this track is a really nice mover for the open air season. we appreciate these artists for this great release and we think to them when we enjoy this sound over the big pas at the open airs

two early and very rare juan atkins productions on this limited reissue! two of his best tracks finally (officially!!) re-issued on the original express label from detroit! as we all know these titles wont be in stock forever.. so think quick!!

this is the fourth release of the future roots series, the trials and tribulations of the first three download releases overwhelmingly convinced producer dj deep that a vinyle series was of an utmost necessity to authenticate the project..the aventure thus starts here..future roots is dedicated to new talents and is a subdivision of deeply rooted house .....future roots is very happy to welcome english artist alexander ross to the label. born in sheffield and now residing in berlin after a number of years traveling and working throughout the world, ross credits his formative years in his birth town with its rich, diverse musical history and world renowned community of passionate musicians and promoters as his greatest influence and the place where the foundations where laid for his dedicated and inevitably lifelong relationship with quality music in all of its many forms. ross first official release earlier this year on these days records saw him collaborate with greek artist argy on the hugely powerful see no evil which gained widespread praise from a broad range of djs and fans of the label alike. the apparent line...ep is made up of three spacial, driving drum tracks which draw influence in equal parts from alexander ross interest in reverb washed dub, deep techno and the cyclic, rolling grooves of percussive african music. the pieces utilise tight dynamic rhythms and expansive, echoing reverberations to create three striking and effective moments. support from carl craig, josh wink, laurent garnier, loco dice, argy, manuel tur, martin landsky, manoo & more!

lotd remains steadfast in its endeavours to offer the best in left field electronic dance music with these 2 tracks from tony lionni. golden is an eight and a half minute journey beginning with stripped down detroit ish synths and ending in more lush, piano & percussion driven territory, with vocal samples being laid overtop the entire ride. epic stuff. the warrior is a deep, late night affair with shades of chicago jack & echoes of basic channel dubness. both of these tracks display tonys depth of musical knowledge while having there sights set firmly in the now & beyond.

two steamy hot floor killers by delsins quince, already praised & played by ellen alien, laurent garnier, dj gregory, kenny larkin, osunlade, dj deep, joris voorn, a.o. back with a vengeance. utrecht based producer quince is ready to burn the floors and delivers these two killers. he teamed up with paris the black fu (from detroit grand pubas) for the vocal house track >my lifes rhythm<. pure dancefloor pleasure, in a tight style towards dj pierre/ phuture. >electric< on the other side of the platter makes people cheering once more when going on the spooky and minimal tip. two times dope

disco tom drops these 2 smoking joints to hot up the party. no info given as to what these are, but the tracks speak for themselves. tom noble is a well respected, and even more well travelled, scholar of boogie, disco, funk, and points in between. he is also co owner of the oft celebrated lotus land record shop and label, and brother to andy noble, of the much hyped kings go forth, a 12 piece modern soul band who releases records on the mr. c record label.

after her intense its all about survival in 2007 for the oceans species sampler (deep explorer 008), heres the comeback of the lady blacktronika to deep explorer as an exclusive ep where lady b write, produce and even perform the vocals in one of the tracks with her personal style, dirty house under the influence of the motown soul. lady b is part of the cocaine collective, new talents in the underground scene like the dj and producer mattski who collaborates in one of the tracks of the ep . also featuring a special remix from dubbyman & above smoke.

stanley anscorm has finished the follow-up to battle beyond the sun. you can expect two epic tracks on this nearly 30 minutes record. although the tracks are based on identical compositional material, they shine in very different color. the black side is of high density and impresses with remarkable bass figures which seems to grow on the fundamental principles of low frequencies. these figures are easily carrying loads of percussions and even an orchestral set of horns which does not seem to be from this world. the white side can be understand as a lighter interpretation of the same topic and it is thrill of its own to discover the intersections between the two tracks. sure, this music is nothing you listen to in an elevator - stanleys art demands attention, there is no doubt about this - but the reward you get if you listen or dance to it with an open heart is of a kind you might never come in contact with somewhere else.

insanely limited colour promos of the andres remix of feeding and 3 mixes of power thru that were previously unavailable. ndatl only pressed up 175 of these and weve only got a very small amount of them. so if you love the soul ful andres deep house sound you better snap one up now or forever be disappointed.

a little piece of sampledelia from maxmillion dunbar (future times, food for animals) and ari g (manhunter). you know when you scoop a record at some flea because the art looks tight, but it turns out that the shit is wack except for some little beautiful chunk? yea you do. we rescued the good parts from many terrible records that otherwise just would ve collected bad vibes on our floors. dudes trying to bring back something like early daniel wang but mix it with heavy boogie visions (swimmers groove) and all these psuedo-african slow cuts from the 90s that we keep finding (o yea). lifeguards for the vibe.

part of our philosophy was always to be open for talent and modern styles of music. introducing the next generation of deep lovers and producers, yellow tail welcomes the 19 year old remerc to it s artist rooster with his first release. what a blast for his debut ep: subtle & warm sounds paired with beautiful vocalslices that blend in perfectly to his grooving drums. we ve been testing these on the floors for a while, and yet the result are outstanding! nudisco added a remix to this package, giving it a bit more drive. but wether you like pure deep sound or driving techhouse, this ep delivers it all! thumbs up for the young generation!

like any group enthralled by the history of electronic pop, the fascination movement love remixes. on the heels of their 0.5 ep, and to keep you busy while they put the finishing touches on their debut album, they give you remix vol 1. starcluster twists “radio” into burbling new dancefloor shapes with a tinge of 90s proto-house including 808 drums and roland baselines, alba (a new project with roland sebastian faber and michael black of unit 4/jupiter black) reworks “down again” into something sweeping and nocturnal, adding rock flavored live drums and a new shimmering melody on top. elitechnique stunningly suspends “just pretend” in space with spinning organs, transforming it from a propulsive pop song into something wholly different. in the days of dime a dozen remixes that consist of nothing more than retro-fitting tracks with a 4/4 beat, these beauties show off the originals in new and surprising ways.

grischa lichtenberger is a new artist on raster-noton. for >treibgut< he recorded sounds from the world around him like a sliding tabletop, the noise of a radiator or the humming of a broken device. by means of digital manipulation these sounds are transformed into sound-giving instruments

this is what happens when rave and house are mixed together by inexcess and mr wenzel. these two young guys from berlin have already released on oliver koletzki s stil vor talent label and now they drop this incredible double a sided bomb which will be heard on many festivals this summer

our third release is introducing to you more intensely the musical personality of dairmount, founder & a&r of our the label. longtime independent music activist born in belgium (formerly known as philarmonix), dairmount is a natural born “freestyler” who embraced anything soulful & groovy since the late 80‘s, playing & travelling the world for 15 years. hamburg is the city where he settled down in the last 6 years and 2009 marks the accomplishment of his personal dream to found room with a view, shelter of his musical fantasies. friendship & challenge are two values that defi ne phil pretty well so it is no surprise that musical collaborations & versatility tightly express his musical approach and personal ethic. after displaying bass-ment tale, an old school house tribute produced with his partner in crime marino berardi, on the fi rst episode of the perspectives serie, dairmount is presenting subakuatik blues on his fi rst ep. recorded in 2007 with his good friend ralf petter, an “old cat” of the hamburg music scene, this track managed to capture the essence of these great studio sessions : phil’s natural obsession to create hybrid club material & ralf’s amazing engineering skills matching perfectly to create this sub-aquatic dream that resulted in the track name. lost in the world of analogue synths of ralf’s studio, they created a 9 minutes odyssey crossing the lines between deep house, disco futurism & detroit infl uences topped by a surprising “ravy” breakdown. phil approached naturally two of his longtime favorite producers to give their own perspectives of the timeless feel of the original : russ gabriel, who phil has always admired for the depth of his output on ferox, planet e or his own soul on wax, has signed a beautiful version of the track. extremely subtle & hypnotic, this remix is a true blessing & a great pride. mood music’s honcho sasse, old friend of phil, retouched with lots of love & care the track that he went crazy for and even realised 2 vers

whats up people. in case you hadnt heard, the cherry is back inside the building. after a 2-year hiatus chicago-fave dj heather brings her much sought after imprint back to life via vancouver-based nordic trax. first up, we have the french born london-based producer giom, aka guillaume jambel, who has knock-out releases & remixes for the likes of motion music, eight tracks, amenti, kolour, om, agave, tango & more. as the title suggests the tracks are a few years old and pre-date his other original material. you may have already received these from g or heather, but let me assure you these are freshly mastered by chris alexander and ready to blow up your speakers.

albin myers, this is a foo fighters remake blowing up in clublandsidney samson, is the previous n?1 in the dutch charts and now crossing over into europe. john dahlbõck does it again. played by all the big shots. massive daniel bovie remix from this worldwide club classic.

incl. rmx by dubbyman & above smoke , we go deep again! its a great pleasure to welcome one of these up and coming spanish deep house lads, ernie. ernie has been around for quite some time, but now hes breaking through with his classic, deep detroit house style. the deeptical tracks ep is an emotional piece of wax, and the remix courtesy of dubbyman & above smoke let us think of some early 808 state tracks. if you didnt check those spanish labels out yet, do it now: deep explorer (dubbyman, the leader of spanish deep house), signs of authority, cornuta sounds or ernies minuendo label, where also the likes of jus ed, patrice scott or antonelli electr. are releasing their atmospheric tracks - you wont ernie be dissapointed

the faint return in 2009 with remixes by some of their favorite artists. das glow re-imagines “mirror error” as only he can. members of the faint have been playing das glow in their dj sets since they first heard the music on institubes. djedjotronic has been one of the faint’s favorite boys noize artists, and the remix of “machine in the ghost” on this release shows djedjotronic in rare form, focusing on the spirituality of the lyrics. tensnake’s inclusion on this package came at the suggestion of boysnoize rec. label head alex ridha. the faint’s manager, joel mark, comments: ” when i heard these tensnake mixes, i left them on repeat for hours. battle hymn for children has always been one of our favorite songs on fasciinatiion, but tensnake was able to take it to brand new areas that we never would have imagined. i could listen to a 30 minute version of this remix. ” nice

musik gewinnt freunde starts the sommer season with mgf 09, which features two young and promising producers from beautiful venice: nicola sansoni aka randomatique and kaled jabri aka kaledj, who together form cosmic cowboys. the three tracks on their dusk ep combine an airy and transcendent athmosphere with an energy that builds up chary first but then unfolds and overwhelms you. with melancholic harmonies and a whiff of dub this ep invites for (day)dreaming or loose yourself on the dancefloor. definitely a great release for deep summer nights that will catch your heart regardless of time and space. cosmic cowboys make a great extension for the mgf family and it will be worth watching out for future releases from these guys
