ultraphat three track ep , incl samuel l session remix (porno totale)

with his debut release on highgrade, >never end<, artist and producer andri has already proven his sense for captivating rhythms and driving beats. it is no accident that the swiss producer spent his childhood swinging the drumsticks and is now bringing his enthusiasm for those beats to the dancefloor. andri is known well beyond the borders of his native switzerland for his energetic and sweaty live performances, which always include new tracks for the floor. with his live sets he aims to encourage more than just wiggling movement – he tries to incite the party freak, to inspire a >technoid mind state< where people want to dance like crazy, all night long! as he says himself: >the people on the dancefloor should be able to experience the story of my sets and completely forget themselves.< but andri is not attempting to be a hyper intellectual sound director, and while his sets and tracks are carefully composed, they also retain a sense of humour. this is the case with his new highgrade release: >up lantis<. the three tracks - >up lantis<, >come to me< and >mr. groove< skillfully play with original samples, crackling beats and sexy basslines. they develop a very unique field of tension, punctuated with a lot of fun filled andri trademarks: this is the dictation of groove

being one part of the dj team kassette boys, ferri borbás aka superlover is widely known as m_ferri. he was raised in berlin and after the wall came down he got musically influenced enormously by the then arising techno culture of the mid 1990ies. his early productions have always mirrored the influences of the rough, industrial and dark sounding techno sound which was brought to berlin by artist like jeff mills, laurent garnier or joey beltram. simple, radical sounding and functional: tracks like his >tanzgenerator< or >open the watergate< had shaped these asthetics into a trademark sound. his latest superlover project is slightly shifting his musical coordinates : instead of a reduced and purely funtional >m_ferri sound< his new project presents a rather emotional and energetic mix of warm sounding rhodes pianos and string synthesizers. the three tracks of the e.p. combine those sounds earworm-like to catchy melody riffs and being the metamorphosis of a new disco influenced, poppy superlover sound

french producer and dj kane roth has released her seductive techno sounds on labels such as canadas archipel, londons multi vitamins, belgiums lessizmore and germanys smallroom music. as the featured artist on klectiks eighth vinyl release, she has taken her stunning productions and the labels catalogue to a new level of sophistication. her emotive new e.p., >my floating garden<, features three hypnotic originals. the release also features a fantastic grooving remix from one of detroits finest, dub techno mastermind luke hess.

once again, berlin based resopal label head mri sticks to his guns and brings you strangely funky tunes. weakend-polka titled ep is filled with three tracks, all spiked with steady beats, funk, deep melodic chords and an overall glamour house feel. this is not only very well produced house / funk music, its also a journey through deepness and a modern take on the soulful side of the electronic music which exceeds the genre by far with a rich, colourful palette of surprising, individual sounds, butter-smooth chords, some of the most raunchiest bassline that you will ever hear outside of drum n bass, cleverly constructed beat patterns that yet never fail to jack and swing and an understanding of dub that goes far beyond the random use of echo and effects. this is electric intergalactic soul/funk/house/techno. its noir, its dirty, its dangerous and risqu. on vinyl, as we like our little record-shop around the corner.

taken from the moodmusic new mix cd, retake one! three of the mixs exclusive tracks— axel bomans >cinquenta< , citycobras >fresh simple<, and dave dk s own >will be gone<— are now due for a 12inch release. dave starts with >will be gone< – a deep yet driving groover in finest dk style. taking a step forward from his latest work, he incorporates pick guitar and classy jazz samples into a uplifting and finely crafted come back. citycobra, one half of smash tv, debuts with >fresh simple< on moodmusic. a deep slice of pad infused house with a highly teasing arrangment building a modern take on burrell bros. last but not least, man of the moment, axel boman delivers some fine dub infused moments on >cinquenta<, a modulating roller, taking you on a trip from the first moment on and keeping you nailed

created back in 1994 by secret cinema, no one could have predicted how timeless this track would turn out to be! if you are in to electronic music and live on this planet, theres a 75 percent chance youll recognise the weird reversed, reverbed piano riff! now, for the first time, the original is available digitally with remixes by slam, egbert and secret cinema himself that made their way to vinyl as well. the massive techno tune from 94 is ready for a little update! it can be a challenge to remix a track with so much history, but all three managed to complement the original while giving a unique spin to the track. the secret cinema 2011 remix is a peak time main room power tool that will turn a big crowd into a riot any day. slam take a deeper, more subtle approach that can hypnotize and rock a main room crowd without blowing their wigs off. finally egbert takes the track to a warmer funkier level, equipped with a funk-filled bass line and some warm pads over the top. a truly timeless package!!

the time and space machine return with the third in their series of highly acclaimed, mind bending psychedelic edits. freakbeat anthems meet hypnotic ragas and swirling phazers, while cosmic cowboys ride off into a day glo sunset. vinyl only, strictly limited as ever, housed in a beautiful luke insect sleeve. the >time and space machine volume three< is a psych lovers technicolour dreamcoat.

three brand new tracks from the mysterious arp 101! this is the producers second release on london based, but interstellarly connected, eglo records. his first release got the official dam funk stamp of approval, as well as gaining support from ramadanman, mary anne hobbs and falty dl. these three diverse productions, ooze with loose, low, funk, holding on to the bottom end whilst the clicks, pops and snares reach for the sky. stick em up!

in 1985 michael soward and shelby hurns set out to create the new gospel sound with their self-released album entitled >real love<. the lp was a progressive mix of synthesized gospel soul and spiritual funk. this heavenly blend proved to be visionary for their time and sounds so right today. ppu22 features three new edited versions from soward & hurns landmark debut, guaranteed to bless speakers worldwide. tip!

lol is a bit of an unusual project, its just a thing in its own right, its not for anything or anyone in particular, its just an lp made by three bored people who like music that sounds like it did before the advent of the internet. the project was recorded in the bedroom of a warehouse conversion in hackney wick (bedrooms can be incredibly creative spaces, seeing as most of us were conceived in one). they wrote about self-obsession, social anxiety, drug abuse, and failed relationships using pre-21st century recording devices such as vhs tape, 70s valve microphones, analogue synths, cheap argos catalogue guitars, and 80s drum machines.

supported by: reboot, dubfire, ewan pearson, samuel l session, raresh, tim xavier, christian smith,.. with oliver deutschmann & ed davenport polytone proceeds on its way to focus on exceptional artists who have something really profound to say musicwise. quite slowly, but highly stringently deutschmann and davenport build up this musical journey until, without really realising, youre in the middle of a very slamming house track of a truely oldschool kind which gains further drama due to subtle chord changes. in his remix, matthias vogt from motorcitysoul further emphasises the tracks house character by adding more chords and then lets the deepness culminate in a wonderful break. robert bosco totally breaks out of the traditional catgories house and techno and combines the best of both worlds in his remix distilling it to a kind of essence of electronic music. all three tracks have in common an immensely consistent approach and a pleasingly trend-resistant understanding of deep music

i dont think i know, or heard of, anyone who share the same obsession in searching obscure disco records like kool dj dust (real name daniel savio). call him at any given time and he is in some flee market or second hand shop on the look-out for records. he even got an apartment just for his collection.
we talked about the idea of re-releasing >un-googable< music, old stuff that is not only very hard to find, but also so good that re-issueing it is an actual cultural necessity. dust tossed around with a few ideas and finally these three songs made the cut. we are very happy with them!
we hope you are too. we are also happy that we have the support on this release from so many djs. some of them being rune lindbaek, in flagranti, tim sweeney, horse meat disco, 6th borough project, parlour, dj rocca, bonar bradberry, parlour, hugo capablanca, cousin cole et al.

huge three track ep with excellent deep funky house / disco cuts

alba with their first full 12 inch release. the triumvirate of roland sebastian faber, keen k and label owner michael künzer is a team that has been delivering the goods on labels such as clone, das drehmoment and viewlexx. this first alba release, created from three different cities, by three guys contains three tracks! three is the magic number, delasoul once said! strong 12 inch that comes on heavy weight 180gr vinyl, great artwork and a limited run that will be gone as fast as the pervious aube releases. a true gem!

mitzi are a 4 piece of awesomeness made up of dominiqe bird, jad lee, charlie murdoch and cale suesskow. they all hail from australias most laidback and sunny city brisbane. some people call it brisvegas because its sexy too. after playing in various killer bands such as bmx (2009 unearthed parklife winners), comic sans (2010 unearthed st jeromes laneway festival winners), charlie why! (recent bang gang 12 inches signing) and the gallery kiss all the dudes have united to create some genuinely exciting australian music. the three tunes on >all i heard< fuse the sounds of garage disco, nyc indie and the light heartedness of australian pop. jono ma (lost valentinos, tracy thorn, teenagers in tokyo) mixed the record at ewan pearsons studio in berlin and made all those trumpets, snares, keys, whispers and vocals sound ridiculously tight. future classics history has always been rooted in bands and were pretty stocked to be getting back into it. plus its our 50th release!

already supported by: richie hawtin, mauro picotto, laurent garnier, max cooper, paco osuna, dj misk, matthias springer and many more!! marc de bell delivers to us the suitable soundtrack with his fourth vinyl publication edelknarz on the berlin label keymono-music. marc is originally from germany and now lives in switzerland. particularly rough and technoide berlin is deeply in him. the sound of edelknarz is more fashionably of dark techno which on would not like to put really so surely in a drawer. one loses himself fast in the three-dimensional structures and the psychedelic sounds. the remix of the frankfurt lk-records of founder lars klein sounds extremely full and transports marcs psychodelic vein with a special push in grooving an energy

exactly one year ago, stimming bought us the exquisite >funk with me<. a production, created together with south african talent lazarus mathebula. having become firm friends, an invite was extended to lazarus to come to hamburg and spend time in the studio. once again, the result of those sessions is outstanding. with >change<, and through the vocals of lazarus, both artists have built a musical bridge linking hamburg and johannesburg. a beautifully exotic production, as we have come to expect from stimming, with an added african touch. completing the ep are three brand new stimming productions for you delectation. musically outstanding, with his trademark-out-there-touch. this is yet another stimming release, not to be missed. enjoy!

born in romania in 1981, mihai popoviciu is one of the most talked about newcomers in the house and techno scene. but to call him a newcomer is a misnomer. mihai has been releasing quality music for years, on labels such as gigolo, level non zero, brise, diynamic and, of course, highgrade. since 2007 he has sworn allegiance to the highgrade flag, either alone or with production partner markus homm. he always has the ability to surprise with his music tracks produced straight to the point with no unnecessary fluff – just the uninhibited thrill and euphoria of dancing seems to empower his work. after a busy summer season playing in the clubs of europe, he is now back to work in the studio. and so comes >trapped in brakets< with three brilliant club tracks of outstanding quality, custom made for the dance floor. if you dont believe us youll have to hear them for yourself. turn up the volume and close your eyes! for those who still want more, mihai popoviciu will be releasing his debut album in may 2011 on highgrade records. time to get excited and warm up the legs for maximum dance floor effect!

franklin de costa is someone we have been following since his first releases on trapez ltd. we still believe >kronn< on curle014, franklins debut for curle, is one of the strongest tracks we have released so far on the label. this >fragile ep< gives again a great taste of franklins qualities as a producer. whereas the title track is definitely the one on here with the biggest peaktime dancefloor potential, the three other tracks show franklins firm talent and diversity in crafting organic deep house tracks that step out of the ordinary. truly a special ep.

label owner and producer patrice scott returns to the forefront to deliver >analog dreams< (sis-014). three new track, of sonic purity and classic detroit depth.

on >tribal tech ep< franksen & tom wax bring you three tribal tech house bombs. >tribe thang< is mainly drum oriented track, full of groovy percussions. >celeste is a fantastic tech house track & the harmonic sounds beams you to the caribbean area. best sound to flashback to the summer. >keep it comin< on b2 is the most progressive track on the ep. an hypnotic track that could be the soundtrack of your next voodoo session or if you prefer for your next 6 o clock booking.

first on decks .de !!! sa007 sees perc and modern heads create the first collaborations between these two core stroboscopic artefacts artists. the result is a punishing hybrid of percs dubstep tendencies and modern heads cutting techno. a-side >mendax< is cavernous. built upon solid dub foundations, it spills over into grinding, metallic territory. if the titles to be believed it takes inspiration from the shady world of lies and deceit. the atmosphere seems to agree, theres certainly something mendacious at work here. b1 takes the eps atmosphere and adds abrasion. in >percdax< cold, hard percussion is layered over a bed of warm dub. closer >moddax< errs on the eerie. it skulks, is full of sticky bleeps and the result is unnervingly dubbed out. all three track titles share the same suffix and if this indicates that they also share one quality its that theyre best heard in the glinting shadows of a club just before day break. sa007 was craftily mastered by artefacts mastering, berlin.

sincopat continues its own path on with its second release from french talent darlyn vlys. soleil levant is a lavish work with three original tracks and an affkt remix, all showcasing different musical shades.

fifth release on the acclaimed imprint from those lovely people over at the acclaimed sleazybeats blog. the dust just doesnt seem to settle at team sleazy who are set to unleash their fifth dish of mid-tempo filth. sbr005 should likely round out what has undoubtedly been more than a successful year for the sleazy beats crew. as hard as it might seem to upstage their recent sampler, this release by berliner daniel solar (of no more hits and dikso fame) is another trio of totally on point sleazy business which showcases daniels stellar skills. things start off with midfidelity funk, a snappy romp through steady synth and disco string territory. this little number delivers a perfectly spell-binding groove with nicely placed rhodes stabs, crisp tambourines and haunting vocal at the breaks. on the flip, twinkle love snaps out a sweet melange of piano, guitar/bass riff and morphing vocals that combine to give a lively mood and open atmospherics. finally, rounding up the ep is la fleur, a wonky yet punchy cut thats ripe with staunch drum sounds and strings amidst loopy vocal snippets for good measure. all three tracks ride a 110ish bpm groove that is likely to ring bells for those who have been following and digging the sleazy sound so far. the last few releases all sold out in a matter of weeks, so dont sleep on this. you know the drill by now: limited release, no repress.

the currently published debut album >synchronicity< of hatikvah on the legendary label soma from glasgow, scotland, let the experts sit up. now, formresonance selected three songs from their wonderful debut album in its uncut version to make it available for the music world also on vinyl!

third and final part of the massive longplayer.. fierce and dark techno weapons! berghain proof ! having built up several heavyweight releases on figure already, japanese techno magnate a. mochi stampedes onwards with primordial soup his powerful 9 track longplayer, initially split over three successive 12 records. this collection of simply overwhelming club weapons extends and expands upon some of the themes the producer already explored in his 3 previous eps for figure ringing, gyrating and pulsing with sheer technoid power is fastball, which will be included on the third part of the release. devilishly simple and yet mind-expanding all the same, this is a true underground weapon for true techno lovers. this only leaves the haunting lift-off signal of forced run, and the trance-inducing, reduced jam that is dark matter.
