the moment the needle drops on bas mooys >krull<, you know you are up for something special: one of those classic tracks that signpost a style, a timeless number that seizes the flavour of the here and now and elevates it somewhere ethereally higher - in this case booty-swinging, infectiously swinging, grinding, building, unhomogenized techno.
in his remix audio injection minimalizes the assault and its reinvented as a soaring detroit acid grumbler. then gayle san & dj hi-shock propel themselves right into the darker depths of the original version and reboot all the right parts to make it a flanged, spacey, at times relentless sci-fi tech stomper.finally ortin cam reconfigures >krull< as slick, motorized electronic dancefloor mayhem remiscent of some of the sativae outings in the early 90s by neil landstrumm and tobias schmidt.limited first press released on solid white colored vinyl.

here comes 2001 so lets all head for the sun!
an experimental surf dance quintet. fixers have been playing and recording together for just under a year, blending the sixties psychedelic childlike innocence of brian wilson and bruce haack with the spaced out eighties avant-garde dance of arthur russell, dead can dance and tom tom club.

r&bs most enduring duo nickolas ashford & valerie simpson sure know how to make it right when it comes to soulful r&b gems and lush dance grooves from golden era of 70s soul and disco. they recorded for warner bros. from 73 through to the early 80s, and rhinos ashford & simpson - the warner bros. years: the 12 inch collection both rediscovers and re-imagines the best of those years.

toyfriend music brings you the real gem! bac 1-11 from j-t kyrke (naked lunch, impact mechanics) is an epic dancefloor bomb as you can expect from toyfriend. the remixes are strong as much as the original mix is. while bas mooy (audio assault, planet rhythm) leads the tune in more purist techno direction, mattias fridell (tonal path) rebuilds the track into dirty underground dub stuff. support comes from tom hades, eric sneo, d.a.v.e. the drummer, audio injection, hertz, gayle san, john karagiannis, dj hi-shock, lars klein.

worst friends is ryan cavanagh and john paul jones (no, not that one) from brooklyn. they are also known amongst the beards as tom croose and slow hands. we actually suspect they are pretty good friends … making this sweet sweet music together and all … oh, and they just had a cool record out on oz-label future classic. the music sounds very unlike any short persons playing sports of any kind though slow and low is definitely the tempo. there is the beautiful balearic original, eric duncan gives us a psychedelic ride on the disco carousel and prins thomas channels the song through recently aqquired skills as a choirboy and 4 finger keyboards chords…. oh my….

in 2009 the internationally acclaimed german director tom tykwer (perfume, run lola run, the international) supervised a film project in kenyas largest township kibera together with his wife marie steinmann. they put together a team of international film pros that each mentored one film student and helped them put together the movie soul boy. a story about a boy who has to go on a journey to rescue his fathers soul from a mysterious voodoo women.
the result of xavers score is a percussive journey reminiscent of minimal music from the 60s paired with african vibes but completely void of world music cliches. its closer to krautrock and steve reich than to the commonly shallow perception of indigenous music by first world movie directors. full of odd sounding kalimbas and plucky guitars, backed by heavy orchestral drumming and floating e-bows.

chris finke (flux/atomic jam) delivers the dance floor goods with his fresh 12inch release on gynoid audio moofish. the original sees big room production fused with an acid like riff aimed at melting minds and moving feet. on remix duties are none other than mark broom, whos pulsing remix takes things deeper, dj hi-shock and his hypnotic re-interpretation and go hiyama moves away from the usual >4 on the floor< to deliver an atmospheric, broken beat, idm influenced mix. supported already by the likes of: luke slater, xhin, drumcell, tommy four seven, wehbba, audio injection, chris liebing, gary beck, gayle san, markus suckut, tom hades, and more!

parallel dance orchestra sind coco solid und robin hannibal (owusu & hannibal), der sich hier bobbi soxx nennt. das disco-not-disco-duo pumpt auf dieser mini-lp disco-rap-jams, die sich hier und da so anhören, als ob der tom tom club und die pop group eine party mit m.i.a. oder dem new york pony club feiern.

aux 88 & dynamik bass system return with an epic four tracker that gravitates towards the sphere of techno bass just like the planetary rings of meteorite around saturn! if the music, encompassing a vast spectrum of infl uences from west coast to miami bass, is composed by thomas werner aka dynamik bass system, sharped vocals and lyrics are performed by tom tom and k1 aka tommy hamilton & keith tucker of fame aux 88

more beatdown disco badassery from camp sleaze, courtesy of melbournes francis inferno orchestra (fio), whose profile is skyrocketing after a string of stellar releases on dikso, wolf music and under the shade. unsurprisingly, >the night he came home<, his debut ep on sleazy beats recordings, is a right clusterbomb of a record. with rush back and this fire is real, fio showcases just how good he is at capturing the sound of 80s disco (crappy vocals and tom drums, what’s not to love?) and transforming it into infectious, midtempo dancefloor fodder while keeping things deep, down and dirty. lovers on the flip is a tasty dreamy chugger with a hypnotizing groove that will appeal to the fans of the super value special edits series. one of sleazy beats finest releases yet, and as usual, a very limited affair (no digital, no repress).

tolles remix-paket mit vier tracks aus dem neuen robert owens-album >art<, das in zusammenarbeit mit larry heard, atjazz, show-b und beanfield entstanden ist. die remixe der vier tracks kommen von steve bug, dj le roi, migumatix sowie tom taylor (20:20 vision) und gareth whitehead.

it took a while, but after the relaunch in 2010 with 3 releases in total (ebe company, stormtrooper, jane ephex & stormtrooper), the next release on important ebe company is a fact.
moleculez & the relic, known for numerous releases on labels like symp.tom, meta4, third movement and many more, combined forces to please us with a 5-track vinyl ep.
the ep starts off with the track >cold corners<, a kickin piece of dark core with a melodic break, followed by >day of sacrifice<, which is representing the acid side of hardcore. the a-side will be completed by a hard and dark remix of >cold corners< by labelowner ebe company.
on the b-side you will find an >ionic storm<, with a great remix bystormtrooper and the original, of course.

the eponym track of the album could not deserve any better musical researchers than ben klock, ark, tom taylor & paul woolford and fumiya tanaka to endorse his first prolog and the 30th vinyl of infiné s catalog.

prins thomas spreads proper, earthy dub house vibes in a good old bobby konders tradition with >lang tung ting<. a hard driving jacker with dry, punching drums and grumbling, low-frequency acidic sounds not modulated by an 808 synth but from warped cello and bassoon lines. an ode to the timeless magic of beats and bass. much less sparse >ny maskin< on the flip is a dizzying disco/ rock jam backed by african derived beats and a gyranting, buoyant guitar lick . prins thomas brilliantly proves himself a jack of many trades again

with the highgrade disharmonic orchestra, the berlin label has in the last year, found itself taking a somewhat new direction. todd bodine, tom clark, philip bader, daniel dreier and dale have bundled their musical creativity together and shown audiences at watergate and other key locations in the capital city, their authentic and premium quality live performance and let club-goers connect with their very unique and exciting brand of musical experimentation. this unique live atmosphere now comes to you as an ep release. three tracks that exude the groove of a sweaty night on the dance floor

shadow sync are back with their latest true techno, full analog release on krd. poles is marked by a percussive sound which despite its inharmonic character yet keeps a trace of tuning making it similar to a voiced percussion. this main sound is arranged to form a sort of pseudo-melody determined by the different intensity, lenght and color of the reverb tail. the 909 delivers both the drum line and the bass line, realized using the tom section. the background is populated by friendly, ceaselessly mutating sonic organisms. magnetic fields is a train rolling through dark, post-industrial landscapes. its built around a drastically eqed 909 tom, a nervous echoed clap and a cross-rhythmic, 3 against 4 hypnotic bass line which evolves in a bell-like sound towards the pause. the atmosphere is saturated with sound vapors and the temperature is dangerously high: play at your own risk!
