second vinyl version of the cd album with more magical works of unit moebius. including the funking >beat that perculator< re-arranging >i beat that bitch with a bat<, >its time for the perculator< and >the pressure cooker< into a totally dirty twisted the hague jack track! the flip side contains the more deeper side from their first releases. for those who were there in those years 91/ 92/ 93, at the famous parties in the hague and rotterdam, this is a walk down memory lane, for those to young or living in other parts of the world... imagine these tracks in a dark, very dark sweaty basement with only strobe light and smoke machines, camouflage nets, and jacking acid and techno sounds for more then 10 ours. djs such as i-f, serge, schmerzlabor, peter ptau ptau and live acts such as unit moebius played the hottest and freshest music all night long until you lost your sense of time and place and ended in a total mind trip. the pure essence of house and techno! the golden years.

after a recent remix for andrea parker and work with the palette all-stars, justin maxwell returns after a 2 year solo absence bringing us two monster tracks that make up for lost time.

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

tom dazing is an upcoming artist from brussels who has released on mb selektions, heimatmelodie, coincidence, veryverywrongindeed and toysforboys already and with his new ep >black magic< releases his debut on trapez. tom has a powerful production technique and a cool old school appeal which he fuses with modern sound design. his new release features >divulge< and >cable strap< two peak time techno trax with a heavy 303 bassline that will rock all big floors. >divulge< the a-side is destined to be a berghain hit. the track is a monster. its attitude is down to earth... keeps it simple but effective. >cable strap< on the flipside is a new modern version of music that we believe used to be the post chicago sound manifested by robert armani and friends. >cable strap< is a super cool heavy rocker with a siren sound that will turn clubs upside down, joined by delicate use of 303 basslines. >temper< the digital bonus track has more of an atmospheric deep feeling to it! tom has been voted in belgium in the top 10 chart of the best national producers in 2007 and 2008 and was voted into the to chart top 10 national live acts

marcs interest in electronic music starts in 1998. inspired by the legendary hr3 clubnight and mixes by talla 2xlc, ulli brenner, marc spoon he started to spin hard-house (trance)...later on he changed his style in housemusic. now hes arrived in the time of electronic and minimal music. during the years he discovered producing own tracks for himself. so his first e.p. called schalfstoerung was released in 2008 on piston recordings from portugal. several releases on galvanic or musashi/ belgium followed. his style features elements of electro, minimal and techno and also melodic influences. now its time for his first ep on kostbar musik, called purple! including a great rework by david garcet from brussels!

killer 2 track ep with anthemic detroit / techhouse

bekeschus is a new project in eintakts artist portfolio. the brothers benjamin and sander present here their first release called >dieser moment<. this ep is a combination of moody electronic styles containing 4 tracks floating between deep, dub, and dirty. the songs connect modern music-to-the-floor with timeless sounds and arrangements that both touch inside and move forward. sound inspirations derive from numerous movements of pre and post millennium artificial sound scapes. especially, early club sessions in berlin since 2000 shaped the brothers view and interpretation of the input and output of electronic culture. >dieser moment< stands for an audiophile time document of their development, and at the same time awareness of >this moment<.in the year 2000 the brothers started to engage their selves in djing...

your know you are doing something right when greg wilson comes knocking at your door for some disco edit action. such is the life now for croation nu disco gem ilija rudmen. after a series of releases on labels rong, infant and deep freeze, bearfunk were quick to grab dance disorder and wasted no time in asking their studio neighbours faze action to step up. their synth bass, low slung and sleazy remix, with a dose of their trademark strings hits the spot. this sits snuggly with ilijas original which mixes in real bass and guitar with his analog heavy funk laden grooves.

after the first single of this adventure witch is the modern electrics 12inchs series we are more than proud to introduce a couple of guys from berlin who are the speak of the moment due to their extra cool remixes on labels such as om records or loudeast. we are talking about chubby dubz : a fresh, innovating & classical (at the same time) conception of house music that will delight those looking for advanced/old fashioned vibrations. after sometime speaking with oliver siebert (oliver $/made to play) and gene siewing, we decided to give the green light to this little project witch shows the longest and most solid musical expression from these two new comers until the date. a collection of four original tracks that combine past & future sounds that surely will be remembered as one of the early works of this german/ usa duo. as always in our constant effort to offer the highest standard in the market we have pressed again in transparent vinyl & sleeves powered with the superb mastering of sonic vista studios (om records,classic,etc..) always looking for that chicago >warmed tubes< sound that we love

unaffected by the hype, minimum syndicat follows his own path into true techno-rave territory. this time our special guest is the mighty deep & dark electro producer umwelt (satamile, kommando 6, drivecom...). he gave us a truly awesome techno masterpiece full of emotion, energy and nocturnal vibes. dark anthem for the underground...

you still cant stop the house! in the spirit of the original chicago acid house of marshall jefferson, larry heard and adonis, and with the intensity of modern dance, comes the kikumoto allstars aka dj/producer cam farrar.

time to look busy again, as function aka dave sumner comes rampaging through the streets of downtown berlin, kicking aside lesser producers and mauling all who stand in his way. not that you would know it from the supremely controlled affair that is his edit of >variance<. moody in the extreme, this edit sees beautiful interplay between delays and reverbs but without the track sinking into the predictable mire of dub techno. space is indeed the place..

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.

played by: ricardo villalobos, sebo k, brothers vibe, loco dice, dj deep (deeply rooted), karotte, nick curly and more... !!after the last fantastic release on fumalab we now make a stop in southern america – to be precise: in santiago de chile. there is a lot going on in chiles electronic music scene and dj felipe valenzuela is one of the agitators of the night in santiago de chile with one foot in latin america and the other one in the old continent. he is a fresh, young, and talented producer. we will hear a lot from him in the future … he took piano lessons for a long time and his first producer steps started in 1995. felipe is a dj since 2002. he organized small underground parties in santiago de chile shortly after he travelled to europe, especially spain. from this experience, great alliances have been created with bookings and excellent agencies. >alicante< is a spherical and hypnotic track which takes you on a journey through chile. there are spoken words in combination with a dreamy chorus and typical sounds from latin america. alicante evolved from a team work as rockit-f. this is felipe valenzuela together with fernanda diaz. >dive< is a percussive, mental track with sound snatches ranked together with a very special feeling. its a long trip – call it a lesson into rhythm and drums. the music kicks you discreet the whole time. >dive< emerged from collaborating with felipe venegas. hes also known from releases on immigrant

minoritys 1st sampler brings you an array of talent including robsouls anhanguera, nwecomer jeff haze, tangos cubase dan and baker street recordings bosses holmes & watz!!

stone cold classic funky disco floor filler thats stood the test of time. first time ever on 12inch!!! taken from the hard to find self titled lp by tommy stewart, bump & hustle music is the definitive disco funk party anthem. it was recorded in 1976 in atlanta, georgia, and since then the lp has found itself in the play boxes of soul, funk and jazz djs alike. however, its not until now that this amazing song has finally made it onto the preferred format of dance djs the world over – the 45rpm 12inch single. in 1976 tommy stewart was a busy man, working as an arranger, producer, performer and writer for a host of soul and rnb artists. the lp made for abraxas records was the first to go directly under his name, and although it failed to take off locally, the lp soon became known by djs across the world primarily for the club smash bump & hustle music. as it happens that song in particular almost didnt exist but for tommy needing to come up with something quick in order to fill in a gap in the album. conceived and recorded on the spur of the moment, and with backing vocals by isaac hayes singers hot buttered soul overdubbed later, its a superb example of rhythmic simplicity blended with soulful, catchy harmonies. its just impossible to listen to bump & hustle music without a broad smile coming to your face, and when played loud in a club, its impossible not to dance!

fergie piles on the pressure with another ser of fantastic remixes for excentric, this time courtesy of adam shaw and bigger then jesus, both doing fantastic reworks

for the next release on echoism recordings we have chosen to mix some of our favourite artists which we have worked with in the last few years and have influenced us greatly. choosing a more underground and daring concept we ve asked electronica wizards solvent & jori hulkkonen to produce their interpretation of lydia lunchs master alchemist. lydia lunch must be one of our favourite all time artists. an artist who defies every categorization through conquering new territories, and gaining international recognition for the innovative quality of her work.

an all time favourite from the vast stay up forever catalogue gets a well deserved revival. aaron liberator and the geezer finest hour together produced the bastard acid techno offspring santa pod at the end of 1999. with high velocity 303s and racing car samples what more could you ask for?

next analytic >shuffle< bomb! this time elia is to sign a triplet decisive. his tracks mark a turning point for the markantonios music label, proposing a more soft techno compared to the canons of neapolitan funky groove style. elia crank out melodies that enhance most the minimal accompaniments with a totally involving effect. shona, shuffle and talking fish are the tracks with which, throughout the winter, we will rhythmically raise from the ground!

so inagawa comes back to mv for his second ep, this time with a more laid back housy feel, smooth and sexy just the way we like it

with his new maxi on cocoon, guy gerber, our man for the big emotional moments on the dancefloor, will make our eyes shine bright in christmas anticipation. after releases for his own label supplement facts, the club hits >sea of sand<, >belly dancing< and not to forget, his album debut >late bloomers<, the tel-aviv-based gerber could be found rightly in top positions in many newcomer listings in the past year. 2008 was a little more calm for him, but with >timing<, being just in time for the final, he again sets new standards in linking harmony with a hedonistic state of emergency. while >timing< pleases us like a nocturnal-hypnotic romance in between a disco bassline, >age of love< flair and winterly sleigh bells, >guilty pleasures< takes back this playful love of details to the benefit of a tropical-dense percussive dub, however without appearing less mandatory on the dancefloor. consequently, gerber will be playing together with sven väth at christmas eve in the cocoonclub frankfurt
