andrés first release for simple records >wanna feel< is all about the resonant, hypnotic bassline that steadily opens out to reveal more layers of harmony. little sounds and licks of melody dance around the bass whilst strings and stabs build the hook into one big crescendo. brooks melancholic strings, cleverly cut up the bassline and an eerie soundscape pushes the vibe of the original into a darker more sinister techno place….this is the lights out, heads down, touch me in the dark kind of groove that we love! finally >move< is an absorbing and patient deep house gem. plunging into a backdrop of prodded keys that subtly shift in shape and tone, a central synth melody climbs to euphoric climax before retiring back to waves of throbbing bass and rolling percussive loops

you re the one is the first single taken from his forthcoming album as high as the sky which will be released on wagon repair in may. baby you re the one is fast out of the blocks with racing percussion and a plunging bass loop. a piercing metallic tone encircles a distorted vocal sample as subtle melodies rise to the surface of the mix, steadily intensifying to climax. on the flip side, crackbeat is a darker animal. kindling wild percussion carries an eerily distant key melody that supports a rich synth siren. teeming with activity, the synth melody is trailed by bubbling bass tones as a feral percussive drive chases to close.

dope new highly limited vinyl 7inch of rain forest featuring exclusive mixes of this beautiful psychedelic house tour de force. experimenting with the uncomfortable mixture of dance friendly production and the sternly serious project of psychedelic adventurism!! these mixes are undoubtedly in a more exploratory tone. luscious chords set the framework for this piano led masterpiece, all the while drifting along on perfectly placed synth arrangements. rain forest might appear pretty at first, a closer listen will yield more confusing emotional reaction as the record at once soothes and disorients. of course, anyone experienced in introspective exploration and healing should know nourishment and pain are not mutually exclusive

versatile are delighted with this new addition to their catalogue. a release made in belgium by detroit techno prodigy: fabrice lig. as you will notice on this new ep, the first white guys to have signed a record on kevin saundersons legendary label kms, remains faithful to the sound of motor city. a light and esoteric melody sets the tone of >x-slaves who changed the world<. the tight clap and kick drum leave room for the modulating bass. a voice similar to martin luther kings, repeats names of cities in which slavery prevailed, whilst pads stimulate the mental trip. the x slave is taken by the dancefloor, changing the world as he dances to the beat. “funk la termite” is elastic funk. binary rhythms, off-beat chords which keep the groove balanced whilst the hi-hats, like little insects, dig away at the beat, building it and deconstructing it as the sounds evolve. >the round of funky bugs< continues in the vein of creepy crawlies. here, the synths are more upfront, their acidic layering create a mixture of harmonic loops which will set all hells lose. the melodies and use of pads stay anchored in the detroit tradition, but this production fits just as well with all the current electro releases worthy of any good dancefloor

following their celebrated >meat is murder< ep, meat, aka carsten schuchmann, teams up with get physical regular einzelkind, arno völker and migual ayala, for >words from the frontline<. the ep opens with its title-track, words from the frontline. indeed, the word >frontline< is appropriate - the firm kickdrum sets the tone and pace before a hi-hat tattoo reminiscent of a military march asserts itself. rushing synth effects edge in from the sides before the track expands to accomodate a bending, feintly jazzy keyboard motif. this is quickly absorbed into the tracks fierce, linear 4x4 progression, and the addition of crisp snap-claps make this a winning modern take on 2nd wave detroit-style techno.

with labelboss pheeks album >en légère suspension< being loved by many for its eloquent detailing and organic, electronic psychedelia, we are happy to bring you a collection of remixes of select tracks from the album. for the remixing purposes, archipel called two favorites to compile a colourful mix between warm afterhours and peak time music. >aye aya ashawa< gets treated by mathias kaden and molded into an exotic, humid cloud of hypnotic, densely layered quasi-tribal percussion with the original vocal presenting itself in a very visual hypnagogic manner. the excellently driving and hypnotic >orage solaire< gets put through the wringer by tim xavier who highlights the hypnotic nature of the original and darkens the tone a little more into a jittering, pulsing aural storm.

lovely slice of deep vocal heaven here starting with an afro brazilian flavored guitar intro and gentle beat with a subtle kick that slides into some extra warm synths and the baduesque vocal by zansika that sets the tone, polish all the way. incredible break about two thirds the way through that gets quiet and takes a moment for just the beat, echoing vocal and dizzying synths that should mesmerise the floor. b side dub strips the track down to its essence exposing all its elements to let us see what makes it work so well

main mix features roy davis jr on slick old school flavored vocals supported with tinkling keys and jazzy synth horns that make way to a delicious break that leads into some searing percussion and serious bass all joining together for a jaw dropping, refreshing reintroduction to some real house music. next up is the jimpster mix, a deep edged straight ahead affair accentuated with big keys and roys vocal right up front and center. a midsection that pulses and hesitates and then drives on with an enveloping deepness that pulls you in. gorgeous! last up is the dub, a wildly percussive take with roys vocal setting the tone. pumping bass and tabla drive the energized big sound with breaks that twist and distort only to launch back into the infectious groove

we come accross suffocating moments, sick jazz in a minimalistic key, sparks of extreme, evolutive, interlaced intensity that eventually create futurisms and bring them close to the listener. intensity, restlessness, hypnosis and vibration could define this first tupperwear release in klitekture. this ep extracted from their album >beton insel< is, most of all, a true surprise box, as you will not be able to predict by which roads will the following twist in this permanently progressing and changing evolution, theres where a very significant part of its assets and its own goal reside. complexly and simply brutal. this ep edition released on vinyl contains a remix crated by lod from gas usa, a debilitating declaration of intentions by tupperwear that under lods concept aquires a smother tone than the original going from the tupperwear demolish actitude to a more repetitive structures

wagon repair welcome a new artist to their ranks in the form of italian minimal master luca bacchetti. after a host of releases on italian label tenax, spawned from the cult club of the same name, this is a heavy dose of entrancing minimal - equally suited for the dancefloor or the late train ride home. a side >rolling brooklyn< pushes the envelope a bit further, a busy and investigatory track driven by sniffing snare sounds, moist synth balloons and screeching metallic accents. ascending from chaos to minimal bliss. distinctly urban, b side >what ever< progresses defiantly amidst reverb laden howls and sirens, throbbing to climax with stabbed bass and rolling percussion in an inpenetrable surge to the senses. final cut >flat mates< keeps up the pace. led by a dizzy synth haze and fueled by a tight house rhythm, luca adds acoustic metal drum sounds into the mix to broaden the tone.

support by oliver koletzki, inaqui marin, angel molina… marc marzenit is without a doubt one of the covered ones of the electronic scene of dance for this 2007. spheere is track 100% marzenit, great melodies and arpeggios, explosive hit, crescendo continuous and hipnótic to the maximum. today is yesterday - claustrophobia-rmx is governed more by similar patterns but less serious than spheere, and with a definitive attack to the jugular one in its culminating point. today is yesterday - original rmx- adopts melancholic forms with a minimalistic suit in the less contemptuous tone of the word. this does not sound like a regular record? then in the cover and the label it puts it well clear r-e-g-u-l-a-r

limited nice price !!!
volume 4 of alexi s already classic sessions series is here! kick off with >wanna be bad?< , sounding like a ride on a slippery escalator alexi builds upon the rubbery groove. a slow story just as the filter tucks and the drums hit the speakers. listen. the track >im tired< resides on the flipside. syncopated dance steps beneath heavy reverbed clave releases the tone. darting between the metallic 303 appearances the tone continues the wobble. more reverb releases hit as the rolling bass alarms the floor. fresh

klickhaus gains momentum with this trippy, late night minimal endeavor for their third release, produced by now m_nus artist, ambivalent. this is ambivalent s second ep, the first being on klickhaus successful sister label, clink recordings, titled >roomies< , and he again proves himself as a name to watch out for this year. ambivalent has a unique, rhythmically diverse and funky style that can be mixed in many different arenas and always has an element of personality to each piece, which makes it a unique experience in dj sets. on the remix side, camea takes the original to the next level by stripping down the rhythm and adding a peak time chromatic pattern to the bubbling lead tone provided by ambivalent. camea s unique style adds a great diversity to this ep. dj emerson is the techno gentleman of the berlin underground scene for quite a while now, on this 12inch he provides a stellar re-work somewhere between house and techno to palindrome

vielleicht sollten die jungs die >vertical tone< serie als abo anbieten. space disko funk vom feinsten

john daly is a young cork, ireland lad currently based in london. the title track is a deep and soothing slow burner of exquisite proportions. melodic keyboards combine with shakers and congas setting a nice vibe-y tech house tone. >do it< is more of a minimal tech house number, topped off with the essence of dub and iron percussion. subtlety is the key hereas this moody number builds with tense strings, deep pads and iron percussion. the last track >too much pressure< takes the classic deep house sound and brings it to the 07 dancefloor. very much like nu groove or chicago tracks, starting off with nice organ riffs, it matches delicate melodies with wooden beats and a 80 s r&b vibe that is as sensual as it is groovy

for the 3rd release on his own herzblut label stephan teamed up with mr. systematic marc romboy and what they deliver is simply outstanding! puck is a masterpiece based on a simple and incredibly modulated bass tone on top of basic drumming. the dark atmosphere and the consequence in this track reminds of plastic mans best productions, this will make you shiver! io is another of those epic classics. techno blues. a beautiful bass synth melody is the core of a journey thru old tekkno ground and new production styles.. supported by garnier, tiga, roman fluegel and charted by hell

support by chloe & jennifer cardini !! actually, a tragic fact that the two label owners of sub static never enriched the own catalogue with a cooperation, but then again, there was no time, passion, and maybe also the right tracks hadn t come yet. now we found them, the ideal components, and thus this split- ep succeeds to involve both sides of the same medallion in an extremely animated conversation, which also the party benefits from. a real brocksieper starts off the record, with that slinky, permanent groove which everyone likes to ride on, as it s making you look well on the floors which signify the world. then the flipside laxly continues where just hopped, speak: a little bell rings, the beats pose, the shiny side always in the floodlight. however, the mood changes - functionality mutates to emotiveness, the music floats differently. this can only be m.i.a., who still disassembles sounds with never known precision, gets ideas in order, simply generates funk. so the tone is given for the next techno season, thanks for that

hot on the heels of the prins thomas mixes come these wigged out house versions from parisian franck roger, plus the original and legendary >la stache< mix. franck roger is carving out a great reputation on the house scene at the moment, his releases on his own real tone records have set the benchmark for other productions on sonar kollektiv/innervisions, seasons recordings and kenlou records, as well as remixes of blaze, roy ayers and jazztronic. franck opts for a sophisticated house rework of >moustache<, its techy moments peeking in and out of the rattling percussion, with oodles of funk layered on top. the >la stache< original mix from blackjoy is included on this release also, a huge underground cut with the nu-disco/balearic/cosmic crowd on its first release on bob sinclar s yellow label last year, and still sounding just as vital today

talk talk talk sets the tone for wunmis forthcoming album, a dynamite funky afro groove, new york dj legend danny krivit has been spinning this one since it emerged from the studio, and here contributes one of his coveted re-edits extending the groove to maximum effect!!

program 1 sets precedent for bass and distortion by giving zero respect to gravity with its displaced click-clock. the plane is minimal, creeping and crawling behind disorientating moves. program 3 bumps and pans around unpadded walls, snapping and reversing itself into a twilight zone episode of darkness. closing out the session is program 2, a ten-minute throb that echoes with dulled-snares, muted hi-hats and tone pulses that allow the bass in as the melody. influences of hawtin s concept 1 and plastikman (closer-era) projects float along, but jpls (aka jeremy jacobs) draws his own perspective with subtle lines, disjointed rhythm and evolving surprises of tone

infekto (aka rico tubbs) has been turning heads on the funkier floors across the world with his signature sound of heavy, polished beats alongside party rockin bass and catchy hooks a plenty. funky music carries a similar tone to ghetto soul, miami treble, and his last money shot outing, the real funk. funky music also pays tribute to one of our favourite instruments of all time the cowbell. cuz every tune could use a little more cowbell

the sweetversion of let’s get down is based on a basic spanish guitarmelody with uplifting vocals and funky hihats. the funky guitar even gets a little outof tone sometimes, to give that real 12 inch feeling to it. the low bassline combined with the stabbing kick delivers a groovy summerfeeling to the track.the original mix is a powerful clubrecord with an electro twist. especially the fatchunky bassline puts the dance floor to work.the groove remix started out as a experimental version of lets getdown but the vocals were so catchy, playectra decided to produce a more groovy version of it. the rawsounding guitar and crushedhihats makes the track loose his sweetness to give the track a stronger and energetic feel. the long break in the middle of the track pushes the track to a climax. the filtered guitars and loud bassline makes the track a little bit french sounding

dj support : dan curtin, daniel stefanik, dominik eulberg, jambi, james flavour, anja schneider... gummihz s 2nd release of mobilee comes straight from the bottom of his heart. the concept of >modern dynamic< is based on developing grooves by manipulating the dynamics of a sound, rather than composing melodies. a side consists of a steady groove with a few surprises taking place in the sonic spectrum and a dominating fm tone evolving throughout the arrangement. it is the kind of tune that delivers pure freakness on the dance floor. flipside is set in a deeper atmosphere with a sweet electric piano groove appearing in the end, reminiscent of the starting time of deep house. agony develops during the first minutes of the track, leading to a relaxed groove in theme with the sweet summer breeze

new get physical sublabel !! these tracks are powerful and somewhat sinister affairs that make most sense when experienced as a blinding strobe light cuts through the back drop of dry ice in a darkened club.marsha sets a completely different tone. its still based on the same blend of windy city funk and intricate electronic rhythms, but the way that the seductive, chiming chords and dreamy break down unfold over the steely drums suggest that einzelkind has fallen in love. certainly, itll be hard not to be seduced by this layered, evocative track, especially if you hear it after a long night spent listening to intense techno.so there you have it: get physical has dragged a new label, kindisch. kicking and screaming into this world: let it be the place where you go to get all your teenage kicks!

real tone s cuts series with a miami buzzed track, this one is very hot indeed
