rebirth records is proud to present one of the most important italian clubs: moxa. born in mantova in 2006/2007, moxa experienced an amazing artistic grow in the last few years, becoming a true staple of the worldwide clubbing scene, having played host to world renowned djs, from frankie knuckles to soul clap and everyone thats anyone in between. this sampler, taken from the moxa vol.1 compilation, includes unreleased material from art of tones / joaquin claussell & alix alverez.

another (more or less) round catalogue number, another various artists ep on uncanny valley: this time its a full package with four true club bangers (at least to our ears...). on the a-side we have the heart warming label debut of the polish producer eltron john

exploitation is the new film by dutch independent filmmaker edwin brienen. enfant terrible produced the soundtrack for this gothic-noir satiric fresco. 90 minutes of music to be enjoyed both as true soundtrack as well as a sequel to previous enfant terrible compilations... but more dramatic and ritualistic in the way the record is building up. it will please fans of minimal electronics and (post) industrial music but also moves into different styles such as idm, tekno, angst pop and chanson, while always keeping a dark and cold mood and/or dream state feeling throughout... limited edition of 250 copies!

daniel helmer and ben manzone started making tracks as sycorax back in early 2011. since then they have self-released 2 in demand 12 inches. in the spring of 2012 they debuted their live all hardware set at the bunker in brooklyn. their second 12 inch titled orfamay quest was a top seller of 2012 at halcyon records. mike simonetti has known ben from sycorax for over 15 years, and is probably more proud of this release than any other to date. true underground sounds.

after storming the charts in 2012 with mysterious 7 inch championed by todd terje & many others, zambon & kapsa - the guys from the very polish cut outs are back with more goods! following the successful debut, they bring us a delicious 12 inch release with 4 amazing edits based on obscure polish records from the 80s. a side is curated by ptaki, a mysterious duo hailing from warsaw. ptaki (which means birds in polish) fly high and want to keep their true identity under the radar. nevertheless, they serve two amazing cuts here, both based on obscure polish jazzfunk. krystyna is the choice cut, with its infectious vocal hook and irresistible groove. marek is a piece of wonderful balearic slow house with rich rhythm and crazy synth action in the middle. b side comes from maciek sienkiewicz, one of the finest purveyors of balearic grooves in poland. two tracks served here wouldnt sound out of place in alfredos set. song for mohindar is the lead track, with its ethereal new-age atmospherics and exotic instrumentation. syntetyczna kobieta lux is an electronic burner that you may (or may not) know from last years tvpc beats in space show.

emotional rescue is proud to reissue one of germanys best - if most underrated - collectives dunkelziffer. formed of dominik von senger, reiner linke and helmut zerlett, the floating line up also included contributions from cans damo suzuki and jaki liebetzeit, as well as the unknown cases stefan kratchen and reebop kwaku baah. this true supergroup, over a 6 year period, made 4 ground breaking albums that covered the classic krautrock blend of heavy, repetitive drumming, intricate, overlapping melody and sonic intonation, but expanded it to include heavy dub, soul and jazz elements. this special retrospection obi set is being issued as part of record store day and features the three 12 inches that will later be released individually.

vinyl only release, limited to 400 hand-stamped copies.
for our third release, we are joining forces with bristol stalwart - kowton - finding the link between two genres that are very close to our hearts - grime & techno. built as an ode to ruff sqwads raw 2 da core, kowton is able to build up and take down the rough and rugged aesthetic that is found within both genres in just over 5 minutes. on the flip, taking on the original is blawan and pariahs collaborative project - karenn (sheworksthelongnights). keeping true to the spirit of uk techno, they manage to translate the raw and grimey quality of the original through a heap of analogue gear, all in one take.

what is good music? most of the time you judge by your feelings. and feelings differ. one step back ahead is a mindset shared by the wupwup group of creatives connected through their passion of music, this passion has resulted in the foundation of a record label without a musical focus. this freedom allows our artists to produce music that reflects their own personality - true music for warm souls is the heart of one step back ahead. a gathering of international artists operating in different fields of expression form the debut release. judge for yourself. underground is a fairytail.

innercity records is the new label from mark horsfall (horsey brothers/amenti music/kaluki) and danny stott (aka roland nights - amenti music/lost my dog). the label, based in manchester and launching in early april, will release a series of various artist eps. volume 1 features 6 artists that represent the very best of what the deep house scene has to offer right now - the well established giom features on the vinyl release with dale howard , leigh d oliver and roland nights, while young brazilian star gutto serta and welshman casey lee jones complete the digital release which will follow a month later. mark and danny state, innercity is born out of a raw passion for proper house music. remaining true to the spirit of house music is our primary aim, which does not involve trying to strictly emulate the music of days gone by but finding house music made out of love for the dance floor.

the amazing desonanz strike back on starkstrom schallplatten, delivering 3 bass-heavy, distorted monster tunes that will tear any dancefloor into pieces. definitely a true weapon in the hands of any serious djs !!

with a techno career stretching nearly a decade, finlands samuli kemppi is a natural choice for the fourth edition of themas continuing chronicle series. his intensely rhythmic, futuristic style has been making its mark across europe since 2004, but it was really four years later, when he was picked up by ostgut ton, prologue, and kosmisch, that the world found out the true impact of his sound. since then he has enjoyed his strongest support from the last of these imprints and, even more importantly, from luke slaters powerhouse mote-evolver, a go-to since its inception in 2006 for the freshest sounds techno has to offer. following the summer launch of his own deep space helsinki label, we are proud to announce kemppis chronicle debut with voyager, an ep of deep, science fiction sounds backed by intense beats.

local talk is proud to present a release featuring clemens kahlcke aka clé, also known as 1/2 of märtini brös. a true veteran in the electronic dance music scene with several releases on established labels, including poker flat, dessous and liebe*detail. the title track the jam is a classic deep house track, cleverly layered with elements that builds the track gradually, giving it real drive and purpose. dirtytwo is on a roll and after remixing hnny last month the dynamic duo continues to make house magic, their take on the original is another winner. the sharp beats, shuffly hihats, short staccato strings rips the track to dramatic effect and a guaranteed weapon in any djs set. local talk is talking to you!

experimental balearic !

impressive voyeurhythm debut by elliott thomas, straight out of portland oregon!! elliot delivers a journey filled first record. known for his kick ass live sets in the bay area, camera shy elliot shows true mastery of his tools well beyond his years. the a side sirius is a serious instrumental number filled with analogue sweeping synths and percussive roland drums reminisce of old recloose and carl craig. the b side desert light has elliot come to the floor with his own vocals, dubbed out bass and shows hes ready to forge his own style of electronic music. available in limited run vinyl.

brilliant new release by knobs including huge remixes by bas mooy & matt busse! special limited collector’s edition on smokey transparent vinyl… a true beauty!!

kolortown is probably the best deep dub act in the world right now, drawing heavy influence from oldschool reggaedub combined with contemporary musical expressions and technology. this ep is a masterpiece in dubtricks, layering & tapebouncing and contains plenty of variety in moods, everything from cluboriented 4/4 steppers to late night chill out when the lights are out. this release shows the true skills of producers xoki & hieronymus here brought to a wider audience, and is comparable to the likes of massive attack and portishead. dont miss out on this part 3-its quite extraordinary!

this dynamic duo has produced an instant classic for 100% pure, a true detroit techno anthem.

finally, a new, true doering, whose other name dirty is something of a fake-out: >i would< captivates the listener with clean, maximum minimal beauty, in typical doering style. the melodies swing gentle as a cradle, the beats take effect in a supporting role and the vocals, though sparsely deployed, complete the demand for inner harmony. the elements combine to create a languorous, warm feeling around the heart û a flawless hit.

closing monster !! >aquarela< has a fantastic melody that will remind you of balearic anthems. the track generates strong and powerful atmospheres with a true groove that takes you on a emotional journey. a >flush-draw< for the upcoming sunny season. oscar was right is an insanely infectious track. a steady deep groove and an effective rhythm join everything to make this a dance floor filler. sinnmusik is an anglo-iberian label based in lisbon and london. le début de tout is the first record by the portuguese dj duo bis boys please.

*its own course* is a double whammy! jay west and stee downes join forces to deliver a true club bomb with an acid touch. it combines a groovy bassline, impulsive drums and warm rhodes chords that simply reek of hit-potential. the track has a compelling build-up, storming towards an inevitable climax and is shimmed by stees distinctive voice. let yourself be guided by its flow.

we are the ones with the courage to stand up and express our ideas. so many heroes have sold out, moved on, and turned their back on the detroit underground. if the true believers are waiting on the calvary then i guess cryovac will have to do. this is our fight whether we like it or not. we are a few like minds, not the alphas, never the favorites. we are the other guys, the ones nobody bets on, the least likely to survive a business. we know what the score will bring us, but there is an appointment and we mean to keep it. heroes must define themselves and then redefine themselves. each day that moves forward brings opportunities to tweak creations into what the now means. kieth kemp endures the elements and ailments of an ever changing electronic world. he is an original hero with a smooth technique that reflects an instinctual nderstanding of sound and soul. kieth represents a talent and spirit that does not falter no matter how strange a circumstance can get. he follows his own path to relavence. i am proud to welcome kieth to the cryovac machine.

after a 10 year hiatus, ron delivers *the lost tapes*. 4 true high adrenaline first generation pure detroit techno tracks.

rhythm and melody, the beat and the bass - thats what proper club music is all about. and with current chihouse revivalists galore, its really hard to come up with something really true to the roots, and brilliantly fresh at the same time. recognition recordings, run steadily by jacek sienkiewicz, polands true visionary of contemporary club beats in a world of post-techno, passes its 30th release with this four-track marvel of an ep by one chino

a minimal beat with house appeal meets a gloomy techno background, generates a lot of deepness and is arranged in a steadily rising style, building up and up again. what seems to be a cool tool turns out to be a true peaktime monster, right after a few minutes!

tadd mullinix aka james t. cotton aka j.t.c. is one of our true heroes. when we had our hands on the first records of his on spectral we immediately fell in love with his daring approach to club music. raw sketches of great ideas – not clean, not cool, but human and deficient, singular and alive. so, signing this artist for our label is a great honour to us, and we are proud to present sonic criminal to you, an ep crossing over classic detroit techno, deep house, jazz and electro. amazing!

following a string of successful solo eps in 2012 including joy and happiness, daniel steinberg returns with cant find my baby, the first single from his upcoming sophomore album treptow due in march. staying true to his ethos of producing infectious, personality-packed electronic music thats a world away from so much of the cookie cutter house and techno that exist throughout club land, steinberg has emerged with a record shimmering with real heart and feeling.

third sides infamous *shit on me*, taken from their first full-length release, *unified fields* is given a four-pronged remix ante up by some of technos more illustrious figures. virginia is back on duty with a fierce and hypnotic twist of jagged percussion and echoing sample blends, transforming the original into an obscure and minimalistic techno voyage, whereas morphosis injects his peerless swamp of sonic oddity under his ra.h moniker – reducing the original into a truly experimental six minutes of chilling effects, echoing percussion and irregular drum bursts…a true hardware show. on the flipside, marco shuttle tears up the beat into a twisting, bass-morphing machine stomp, replacing the originals drums and hi-hats with a mesmerizing cascade of sharp vocals and flickering note-repeats. finally, the elusive techno excursionists, xenogears give the original an ominous industrial edge, where harsh drum machine distortions meet long, dreary pads and cavernous vocal shots of the finest analogue calibre. techno restoration is back with a vengeance.

label boss, dj spider links up with analog guru, phil moffa! these two analog junkies have put together a crushing 4 track split effort. the first 3 tracks are strictly for the dance floor and the last one is a deep, mental piece! they each delivered one track each and two tracks were done together. warm analog drums with pure synth soundscapes are on display here from beginning to end. a must have for all true, underground soldiers who support new york techno!

despite the fact that he has been producing house music for a long time, this is orazio fantinis first feature release. this canadian musician is a jazz enthusiast, but his true passion lies in house music. he comfortably moves between deep house and jazz and seems to feel pretty good doing it.

all tracks written & produced by ark (guillaume erroyer) and pit spector (pierre deniel) 4-track package from exciting new duo ark & pit spector. made up of brothers ark, the parisian known for his pioneering releases on perlon and karat, and pit spector, an up and coming producer, they join forces on their debut ep for eclectic label hold youth. true to the hold youth ethos the ep calls on a number of different influences, from the smooth, funk-led vibes on tournsoul, to the techno-inspired sounds of seuils remix of the nuts. ark & pit spector explore all that is sexy and hypnotic through the subtle but effective all green, while more down-tempo the nuts is verging on 80s-esque wonky-pop. seuil steps up for his take on the latter and delivers a dark, murky and all together sinister version of the original, adding a pulsating bassline to compliment the stripped back edit of the vocal. forward-thinking and open-minded sounds, old futur is another worthy addition to the hold youth catalogue.

the new year starts for raum with the second single by two of our key artists teaming up again, namely christian burkhardt and sascha dive. the a side is produced by sascha alone and is definately standing out from his more house related productions of the last months. halfway is a true peak time monster that already got deck sharks nervous throughout the end of last summer in a few sets of djs like ricardo villalobos or raresh for example just to name the most important ones.

get the curse music 013 features oliver ho aka raudive, one half of duo the eyes in the heat. widely acclaimed for his vicious minimal techno grooves, raudives been on an machine funk bend and crafted two tracks which are as robust as they are potent. true to the gtcm philosophy, distinctions between vintage and modern, old school and new school, mind melting and bodily stimulation are brilliantly blurred. neither house, techno, ebm or synth punk, these tracks move in their own circles. the same can be said for the xenogears remix, miles away from the tired templates used and abused by most producers. fuck genres, lets dance.

is he good - or is he wicked? - with this quote from alice in wonderland, clemens started his highly acclaimed fÖn records series in 1996. 2013 neufeld is back and taking raw acid techno to the next level. wicked is a bass heavy straight banger for the big floors, driven by haunting distorted off-beat percussion and naughty 303 bassline action.us-techno legend angel alanis, true master of disaster since his early works on woody mcbrides offshots, totally destroys it with a super ruff earthquake bass monster. nobody less then gez varely aka g-man, legendary half of the techno pioneers lfo from leeds, uk, provides another remix in his very own flavor - deep, dubby and hypnotic - a guaranteed floor filler. recorded in vienna(a), indianapolis(usa) and leeds (uk.

after the huge success of the jeudi records friends ep with montes *true* the 5th release of jeudi records is welcoming yet another young gun from hamburg house city. sidney charles is deep into the drivin, energetic jackin house style. his two originals come with strong vocals, dominant basses and a dash of old school flavour. this diversified release is supported by two stylish remixes from re.you and label crew member doctor dru. re.you captures the berlin deep technoish vibe with a heavy tombass and a rare hypnotic groove. doctor drus remix is showing the melancholic and soulful feel of the vocals. perfect for the late summer nights.

renato cohen on 100% pure records for the first time. including a remix by 2000 and one, the suddenly funk ep is a true musical gem.

eclectic avenue welcomes the inimitable lil mark, one of the true stalwarts of the uk house scene & regular contributor to some of the finest imprints worldwide. here mark expertly shows his unique knack for genre-straddling. kicking off with pulling strings more familiar lil mark territory, with his trademark tight-as-hell percussion & firing bass sat below a freaked-out twisting riff. seriously, this bad-boy takes no prisoners....other than the ones on the dancefloor.... on the flipside we are treated to memoirs, a beautifully sumptous lo-slung roller, utilising a vox refrain over the top of a glorious rolling bass groove. like being comforted by a welcoming acid-bass-hug, this is truly something special. nestled inbetween marks original cuts is e.a.r. main-man j.cub, who offers up an alternate interpretation of memoirsl. taking the vox refrain & weaving it throughout the track like an instrument, j.cub nudges the tempo up slightly & adds a solid percussive backdrop & a reworked bass groove, creating a cut which is deep enough to warm the crowd but packs a solid punch at the same time

the headless horseman is coming after you with a freshly sharpened sword. he will take no prisoners. his true identity has never been revealed but his presence is felt through music. listen if you dare, but be aware that he will ride again, sooner than you know it.
