summer mega-ton-bomb – sure shot!! balearic is a word which few people really understand. it can mean whatever you want it to mean, but it has always been vaguely associated with ibiza, hippies, deep tropical dance music, and british football hooligans who grew hair, showered less, and became djs. but forget those 90s british for now, there that feels better! with this special release, which we have kept quarantined on its own tuning spork extra label, we are bringing you that balearic vibe with a deep and dubby 00s house music twist. and for us, this is the record of the summer. so prepare yourself for a massive collaboration project from the social beings. this is not some duo youve never heard of, in fact its label boss jay haze (fuckpony / bearback / krak street boyz) and his friend, modern day techno legend ricardo villalobos… one piece of information which is true, unlike those ones, is that haze and villalobos are now huge figures in the house and techno world. and they are indeed social beings

detroit s new >soundshift< imprint makes a stunning debut with this intoxicating two-tracker. opening up is the soultek remix of billy dalessandro s smashing >don t sleep< release (which was found in the many sets of dan bell, ame, annie mac & pete tong last month) this mix is nothing short of brilliant and will certainly capture the hearts and sets of all those mathew jonson or loco dice fans out there. it has a subtlety that really creeps up on you and before you know it you re tapping your feet and zoning out listening to the intricacies of the music. truly minimal, there are loads of space within the track which is somewhat similar to the original but still a world apart, particularly in the fantastically eerie synth programming. in the forefront of the song is the shimmering and haunting vocal loop, >don t sleep< which has an almost hypnotic effect. (think richie hawtin in closer) the melody of the title is a delicate affair which sips cocktails in the company of some nicely chosen whirring and echoing noises. the build is effected so subtly it verges on melancholy but halfway through a rumbling bassline, appregiated melody and backbeat hi-hat pattern announce a funkier escalation!!

(style of eye remix) 2007 introduces a brand spankin new label from established artist/producer troydon. don t sleep on this one kids, it aint gonna sit on those record shelves for very long at all! (b1) rotated by inland knights, mark farina.

>une pipe nest pas une pipe< is the grimey sex youll have in the corner of some dingy, rotten afterhour club. chugging build-up, mindfucking climax and brutal comedown rolled into 9 minutes of techno-dirt. >la guitarra de san miguel< shows the friendlier, mellower side of things, a beautiful guitar-lick sits atop a driving groove, held together by those stuttering hihat-breakdowns, which have made the tune a staple of every local afterhour for the last year

slam mode are back with another instalment of their >sedation in noise< series. this new one is all about balance. the a side is a deep, minimal, techy drive that will keep you in space on those long flights between berlin and detroit. still firly rooted in the vibe that is going on now in nyc this record plays out perfectly for the likes of francois k and joe claussell. hit the flip for a breaky jazz techno piece along the lines of early carl craig/innerzone orchestra

supported by karotte !! with the signing of south-german newcomer dizko toaster oliver koletzki rediscovers his old love for squeaky peak-time disco house. toast hawaii is one of those tracks, starting with the sound of the sea breaking and combining filtered disco grooves with sexy techno synths that take you back to the hedonism of studio 54. the track itself is the bomb, but the list of remixers is impressive, too: koletzki as parker frisby turns it into a smashing hit adding his typically strong loops and some hypnotic vocals. on the flip man of the moment remute contributes his production skills and creates an effect-laden driving techno piece full of surprises. stil vor talents own h.o.s.h. then takes a totally different approach resulting in a deep and warmly grooving detroit-style track that immerses the listener into the depth of the tune. this record is a lot of fun

françois k. finally unleashes the official 11:00 min long version of moov originally recorded and mixed in 1995. moov offers a deep hypnotic ride and combines unique electronic sounds with warm, lush live keys and driving percussion. its complimented & backed with two mind bending tracks that jocks will drool for, looking at the stars may truly have been inspired by kubricks 2001 a space odyssey. vortex will undoubtedly work for those who work with tools and effects.

to give his work a new context and to recall some of the timewriter’s finest moments, plastic city label gave his thumbs up for resensed part one, asking acclaimed musicians and newcomer producers alike to give the already complete masterpieces the midas re touch. the result, a first sequel of remixes that are now published on timewriter haven plastic city are at least as fascinating as thee eight original tracks and will equally appeal to those die hard the timewriter fans as well as those who discover him for the very first time

played by the dahlbäcks, zoo brazil, c. lekebusch… >couldn t care less<: squelching synths and a ruckus beat that jacks you like a wack on the head pulse through the electryfied bodies until they glide in to an epic, spacious breakdown with sunset synths – and thrown straight back into the twitching beats that complement the fanfares of wild burping basses that push you over the edge. >jattedansen<: if you prefer to happily shuffle on the mad side of things, opt for the chugging, squelching nip-and-tuck of >chunky little thing< that grooves in stop-and-go fashion straight into those hotstepping dancing feet. organ stabs and squeaky, choppy synths make this a mind bending slow burner that grooves without mercy

a smokin hot ep that starts with >believe it< with a funky ass bassline, chopped vocal samples and wickedkey stabs. on the flip we have >half steppin< a tougher groove with some nice guitar licks. dope! the last track >hustler< features some sick vocal snippets and a bassline that is sure to flex those subwoofers! each track is accompanied with it s own dj tool, how bout that

this dope 4 tracker starts off with homero espinosa (yerba buena) delivering the goods on >le one<. tight drums, a deep pulsating bassline and superb keys are the order of the day here. wicked! next up we have the 1200 warriors dropping a remix of >le one< that gives us a different take on the origianl with it s boompty funk and spoken vocal samples. on the flip we have those two badasses from indianapolis john larner & slater hogan coming correct with a nice deep funker that is sure to get the booties shakin on the dancefloor. last but not least we have dani deahl s >too hot to handle<, which is exactly what the title says, hot with its massive sub bass. 4 heaters on this one

through their involvement with leipzig-based netlabel 1bit wonder, daniel stefanik and sven tasnadi became acquainted with each other. recognizing similar approaches to production they decided to throw things together - cargo edition #3 being the result. daniel s unique feeling for melodic harmonies meets sven s preference for vivid complex rhythmic structures - the outcome being two enthralling tracks, at the same time driving and deliberate. this is stuff for real music lovers - it appeals to fans of contemporary dancefloor production means as well as to those who appreciate highly emotional records!! already played by mike shannon , jay haze, reynold...
