when italian alex costa arrived in the world in 1979 he believes he was already addicted to electronic music. inspired by the djs surrounding him in his pr role in the clubs in the early nineties, he made the switch to dj and radio show host. in 2005 he started to produce - zoning in on quality deep house, tribal and tech house and scoring him a series of releases including daddy soon on toolroom records and was great on intacto records. we are happy he is back for some more intacto fuelled action!

though some only know the byrds for their covers, critics believe that they are amongst the most important and influential bands of the 1960s. their signature sound of clear harmony singing and jangling guitars combined well with the sounds of british invaders the beatles & the rolling stones, and they became the pioneers of folk rock, psychedelic rock, raga rock, and country rock.
the recording of the 1968 album >the notorious byrd brothers< in the heyday of the flower power age was nothing less than herculean, disputes over artistic direction & power struggles within the band meant that by the time recording was finished there were only two byrd-members left. the album was a labour of love, though, its more experimental and progressive than their previous works and is considered one of the best albums they made ...

after the last crazy studio session, matt k created a brandnew remix from the legendary release from carsten fietz s rappelkiste. matt k s new remix is based on a crazy percussive baseline with some tribal elements. on the flipside we release the original mix from 1998 again, because it was a long time out of print !

as 2011 unfolds, ld very much retains his own sound drawing from his roots: drum pan sounds of jamaica resonating throughout, flashes of soca drums, subtle tribal nuances, and the ghost of jungle reverberating in the warm, pulsating sub bass. it seems now is very much the time for ld to make the transition from behind the scenes and into the limelight.

here we go with the 2nd release on circle music of the belgium michael coninx alias hermanez. this talented young belgian is both in good company and is fast earning the respect from his peers that many producers can only dream of, with releases on paul ritchs quartz imprint and release >nicotine/soms< on leena music, anja schneiders imprint, plus hermanez remixes for la factoria, and monique musique to name a few. now, after the big success of his first release on circle >locomotive< he will be back with the second one, the >spank ep<, on the mannheim german based label. the a side brings us spank. a groovy and tribal house tune who will rock the floors. the b side with stomp is more progressive and a little bit techno. very cool for every maintime set! circle music is very happy to release this nice piece of clubmusic!

asiko disko - jt uses classic drum machines, sneaky acid lines and a mike dunn-esqe vocal to create this underground gem.
gaia - this track is sure to be a dj favorite. pounding tribal rhythms, hypnotic chants and an arrangement demanding to stay in the mix. this is a dj weapon.
asiko disko (dave aju remix) - having been a fan of dave aju for a while we thought it would be a hoot to get a remix from him. the result is a slow burning, shimmering remix that takes the original and shoots into space.
gaia (lance desardi remix) - our main man lance desardi turns in a electric remix. taking the original and delving into darker territory. new sonic creatures rotate around deep bass tones, hypnotic chants and new directions.

trust now is the keystone album of brooklyns prince rama. the album takes the kaleidoscopic mysticism of ancient devotional music and focuses it through the fierce urgency and archetypal language of pop, forming an environment that is both accessible and impenetrable. deep synths rise from a sparkling sea of gamelans and prayer bells as tribal drums pound the earth with the hypnotic power to heal or destroy. voices carry captivating and haunting melodies that shine like the diamond jewels of old bollywood soundtracks spilling over dark wave dance floors.
first conceived as a ritual to be performed live, the songs were fittingly recorded inside a 19th century church in seattle by scott colburn (sun city girls, animal collective, arcade fire). as their 5th full-length album, and first as a duo, trust now is perhaps prince ramas most focused, cohesive and powerful album to date.
comes with code for free digital download of this album.

danilo schneider publishes on his label enough! the ep - short image in my brain-.

the two artists jakob seidensticker and bardia salour take care of a wonderful and fabulous background of this ep. they give the original track - short image in my brain - a new sound. with dedication and passion this remix is a treat for your ears just from the beginning. bounded on the track you will absorb every sound and let yourself drift. another wonderful vinyl extraction presented by enough!

120 days are a 4 piece from oslo who released an acclaimed self-titled record in 2006. in the time since, the band has been developing and honing a sound, the first taste of which is >osaka<, which will come out on club mod.
a brooding, tribal, baggy acid beast, the >osaka< single, with remixes by sidwho? and diskjokke, is now available in 12 inch format.

there is a certain dynamic that emerges whenever andre galluzzi and dana ruh pair up to create a record. with last year s >freya / mauersegler< split ep on ostgut ton, the two have already hit up some of the most prestigious labels in the electronic music landscape. tracks that are upbeat, driving, and, most of all, fresh have characterized their co-productions, which now have aras as a home. taking its cues from their label nights at berlin s panorama bar, galluzzi and ruh have solidified aras into an imprint based around expanding upon the creative energy that both share. their first release, >trambolla<, harmonizes each artist s approach into a grooving whirlwind that showcases their ability as producers as well as live musicians.starting off with the title track >trambolla<, the ep begins with tribal beats and infectious arrangements that seamlessly build upon each other along the course of the a-side. grooving from the start, it is the kind of track where the listener or the dj gets into the vibe right away. the percussion of >trambolla< especially stands out amongst the latin-tinged bongos, hi-hats, and hand claps that interchangeably come in and out of the track, a journey of its own at 9 minutes. >thelema<, the b-side, contrasts with the lightness of the a-side and demonstrates galluzzi and ruh s equal comfort in creating darker and heavily pounding tracks. the ten minute track grows out of a simple beat and growls ever louder as it takes in more intensity with its cascade of filters, delays, and booming bass. aside from the hard edge of >thelema<, it also provides a preview into the live set that the two artists are about to debut together.

the history clock is most certainly alive and ticking with this incredible release from argentinian duo, djs pareja. you may be familiar with some early tracks that they have done for matias aguayos peerless comeme label (their excellent ghetto rhythms, kenia and tribal scream), and this is a perfect follow-up. >psycho rhythm<, the appropriately-titled lead track is a brilliant, mid-tempo, mildly-disturbed outsider house / ebm-shocker, coupled with the absolutely perfect roska / uk funky-esque, tropical rhythm of >pampa room<. a track that joins the dots between the bumbumbox parties of buenos aires, the boiler room nights in london and the boxes of the more forward-thinking djs on rinse fm. balearic music fans will immediately fall in love with >spanish is beautiful< - in both original and alejandro paz (comeme / huntleys & palmers) remix formats.

hold on tight cause here comes a game changer, jen & ed edj 001 delivers a first for the couple best known as dj jus-ed and jenifa mayanja. the two producers team up to deliver a rousing two tracker that cuts right to the chase. the a side features >dark matter< from jen which is a high speed baleraic dancefloor smasher with an old school tribal feel. >slammer< by ed grabs the dancers by the hoofs and never lets go with its addictive chants and stabs throughout the groove. this release may be considered controversial for some but for jen & ed its just another day at the office. edj recordings is a sub label of uunderground quality / bu-mako recordings

hdr002 takes us straight to 90s house territory with four new edits from nycs marcos cabral. the a-side opens with >sym phon<, an anthemic filtered piano house jam that opens up wide and swallows all in its path. a2 gives us >better think again< with sticatto chords and twinkling keys in a jersey-esque house sound. the b-side hits with >in the sea<, starting off with a giant slow tribal beat and then morphs into a psychedelically swirling synth workout. b2 wraps things up with >get get get< turning our ears to old school chicago house. rolands tr-707 lays the percussion down while the chant of >get in the groove< repeats into infinity

after a short production break, the russian techno duo easy changes (denis cast & kilrill silas) are back with a 12 inch on the berlin/london based label, mean records, run by cesare marchese (cesare vs disorder) & federico benedetti (onirik). the lion is also a good drummer fits in nicely with the labels love of minimal techno productions that feature original sounds, moody melodies and deep aural landscapes. easy changes gained recognition in 2007 with two back to back hit releases on foundsound records. in 2009, they were the first ep from nervmusic, a moscow based label that focuses on unconventional techno started by cast, silas and friends. seated comfortably between the avant-garde and the dancefloor, the release has something for everyone. the title track, the lion is also a good drummer is an epic, crawling minimal techno production filled with stripped down percussion and abstract found sounds perfect for after-hours. on the flipside is the uptempo, quirky and tribal burlesque, replete with spliced vocal samples, snares, cymbals, bleeps and claps. for the burlesque remix, french producer doubtingthomas shows off his lifelong obsession with percussion and its rhythmic allure with the addition of a trippy drum solo midway through the track.

the followup to time trekker this 2 track 12 inch is set drop just in time for the summer. punks get down is a deep house groover with lush keys and a tribal feel. smooth with some jackin beats. b/w inside 2 a thumpin deep house track with a whispery spoken vocal refrain.

aniligital music presents tal m. kleins >deep dark place<. this is one deep trip with a giant didgeridoo tribal dub setting the pace for a house intro that melds into a heavy juno bassline and peaks with a piercing 303 acid lead. this track does not mess around. the dead rose music company goes deeper both figuratively and literally by adding vocal elements that echo through their swagging cosmic thumper remix. soho808 liven up the mood and tighten up the impact with their remix classic house piano treatments and guitar.

the intermezzo ep kicks off with we are here, which could be easily described as get out part 2. a spoken word vocal over kerris trademark beats and instrumentation, musing on the subject of a busy schedule and calways available technology. so it begins again takes things down a much more tribal road, perfect for a big room, and the dc10 mix is a nod towards the direction kerri had in mind and the dancefloors he created this track for. the dark mix takes this idea even further with a more progressive feel as the track plays out. red lights explores a more live drum feel with a cut-up breakbeat playing a 4/4 rhythm, and a throbbing bassline and synth pattern. this one is a little deeper but still packs plenty of punch!

raf pisani and marco conte, aka audiomatiques, have long been involved in techno but its since they began working together as audiomatiques that everything began to click. together with roberto capuano, an artist who has already released for loose, claque musique, monique musique and suara, the duo have delivered 3 sterling tracks, which are backed by a remix from rino cerrone, for loose. cerrone takes full advantage of his position as label boss and places his remix of >so bad< in pole. its a walloping but low slung affair riddled with hypnotic rises and false drops which build incredible tension. in original form, >so bad< is a pounding affair. the focus is centred around an unholy bass heavy kick with just the minimum of percussive flourishes and vocal effects doing the rest with aplomb. >mind trip<, while equally as heavy, is fluid and slick. swinging tribal vibes and some clever effects work paired with an airtight arrangement makes for a surefire club burner. finally, the bizarre yet compelling leads of the aptly titled >crazy synth< close proceedings with a fever-dream fervour. original and memorable, this is a genuinely anthemic cut.

this the latest offering from osunlade/soul jazz joint label. deep afro house with slick beats, chanting vocal and tribal percussion.

excellent groovin tribal techhouse action
