torontonian quartet, azari & iii have announced their debut self-titled album on turbo recordings / loose lips records / modular. it follows the release of the single >hungry for the power<, which erupted a storm of awe on the underground music scene, and a collaborative track >stay here< with friendly fires in 2010. the record is set to become the sound of a dystopian summer with their innately brooding beat and sordid-pop edge.
azari & iiis unique blend of moody electronica, dark yet hooky vocal choruses and analog-thick rhythms has earned them a hardcore following and sees this album as one of the most-anticipated in the calendar. the four-piece, consisting of producer/musicians dinamo azari and alixander iii with vocalists fritz helder and starving yet full, have crafted a defining sound that relishes in its references while maintaining a future perspective.
from the velvety refrains of >reckless with your love< through to the creeping melancholy of >manhooker< and the unhinged technopera of >undecided<, their album possesses an individual classic-future feel, with trademark lush synthesizations, biting soulful choruss and ominous overtones.

after the roaring success of nicolas jaars space is only noise album the fine curatorial heads at circus company hq have enlisted 2 of their nearest, dearest and most talent co-conspirators for the first round of remix duties. having built a cult following and peerless reputation for his remixes of everyone from roy ayers to cassius, pépé bradock turns in no less than 3 versions of too many kids finding rain in the dust. the proceedings begin with his blind pig mix, an echoing tunnel of balkan strings and dusty samples connecting the lands of disco and hip hop to blinding effect. the train fantôme poke follows and is certain to find its way into many a discerning dj bag in the weeks and months to come, with its mathew herbert-esque syncopations and grinding industrial scrapes and psychedelic whispers. dave aju takes up the baton on the flip turning the albums title track into the kind of late 80s dance floor work out martin hannet would have been proud of, certain to appeal to fans of recent work by matias aguayo, rebolledo and the comeme camp.

in all the thea rooms, the meeting centers for alcoholics russians and the blogs of the sapareted nations of the wikirebels were wondering where anton and maxim truly ended up. perhaps non all were aware of wap happened in moscow after the big heat of the summerr 2010. used to the polar cold also the computers ad all the electronic comunications took a moment to reflect, closing, in a natural obligation and right to silent. but this does not apply to scsi-9. the guys have to work with dedication and long care, clear, relaxed. do things well means knowing how to wait, as tasting a fine wine, smooth. in this the cold couple births their new mood in two beautiful tracks and perceives new exchanges of high level with john tejada and pablo bolivar. two thin encouters of arte and culture, where pablo silken and john point- blank reveal a tick record, impeccable. john bounces our breath trough harmonic turns and chorns that transforms the original track in a new roaring engine and well-calibrated, with an unforgettable ending. pablo enters the tunnel of sound to cover/wrap in a soft and comfortable limbo, more visionary than ever. deep that becomes contemporary is ready. only 500 copies distributed on the planet.

a taste of the new paradox ramifications lp with a 12 inch album sampler of dnb and 125 bpm breakbeat on the flip. mystical vocals and strings lead >antilogy< into a car crash of heavy drums in true paradox style whilst crashing into dark tunnel of esoteric stabs and samples. sub bass booms layer the kick drums and acid samples pave the road clear for the relentless ride of antilogy. after 5 years of solo alaska albums >black 69 version< marks a welcome return to the drum techniques of paradox. this sampler-only version of >black 69< is raw uncooked meat as they come with 125 bpm ultra-dirty funk breaks and eerie 70s soundtrack samples lavished in effects, demonstrating an aura that only paradox knows how to create. deep pads and vocals emerge from the dark and when the analogue bass drops ... you instantly know the unique identity and sound of >black 69 version<. the full ramifications lp is out in june on triple marble vinyl and a solid black cd edition – two unique formats for the music lovers and collectors. dj support from: loxy, kryptic minds, , equinox, mark pritchard, fracture & neptune, jesper dahlback, 4 hero ...

massive new release on the mighty italian hardcore label hardcore blasters by nitrogenetics!

it really is an unbelievable honour for us that we may release this fantastic track by von spar, a track that might as well be found on their outstanding album >foreigner< from 2010. maybe it is because we are such a big label and this crude, elegiac, and emotionally mighty sound of these guys fits just perfect for us. and whoever would like get out of this tunnel of infinite deepness should rely on the remix ada comes up with. trust is good-but no doubt, control is better.

we are pleased to announce the debut release of a young producer from the uk, bnjmn. his adventurous electronic sound is one we haven t heard in a while, and excited us on first listen. while on one hand his music has a traditional sound (early 90s uk), bnjmn does create a world of his own due to the versatility in his productions. it is this versatility that creates an exciting hybrid sound, therefore pushing the envelope and making it sound very current, future even

what an absolute stormer, for those of you who have never heard this record, get ready to be blown away. initially out in 1992 inner citys pennies from heaven was just the most perfect house anthem, i think it was kevins tunnel mix which was the killer mix, here it has been strung out just a little by the slow to speak people. all the crucial elements are still there, amazing vocal, the most uplifting of pianos, ridiculously simple yet deadly bassline and fantastic crisp garage beats. really they dont get much better than this, watch em go on nye when you drop this. awesome!

groove charts # 3 !!! >sex ×technology = the future< ( jg ballard) wires are the arteries of the modern world, connecting and supplying practically everything that defines our lives. we channel our desires like an electrical current through our machines. musically, the concept is about drawing together the different strands, from techno and minimal to house to ambient and experimental. there is a common thread that runs through these different genres, linking them like the roots of a tree. this diversity is what keeps everything fresh for me. the >raudive< project explores techno and minimal, further releases will feature >atlas<, a new project created by myself and co-producer tommy gillard which moves into more detroit house territory. later there will be music from >zov zov< music that references pan sonic, coil and sunno))).

ark has got an eclectic and organic sound, something in between. from his origins as guitarist in a number of 80s funk bands, most notably trankilou, where he hooked up with the legend that is pepe bradock and onto the great matthew herbert & losoul with their first collaboration, belle lurette in 99. the alleluyark ep series from 2003 reaffirmed as his status as chief protagonist of experimental, groove led house and techno. his 2005 long player on perlon, caliente won him critical acclaim, which is furthered by his more recent works together with shalom (as shalark), krikor (as krikark), cabanne (as copacabannark), mikael weill (as les cerveaux lents) and dolibox. his cannon of remixes is as long as the channel tunnel, reworking the likes of stephen beaupre, mr. oizo, archive, mossa, salif keita, slabb, fym, robag wruhme

another slick double artist 12 inch from the 2nd drop camp and for this, our 9th release, soushakerz head honcho and kent second finest achievement after the channel tunnel, j:kenzo, offers a blistering a side with conqueror. this moody, skittish and intense bongo led firecracker that descends into a thumping bass skank out on the drop, is pure dancefloor dynamite.
on the flip sees the return of ld, who continues to take the percussive elements deeper on derailment, adding in ravey synth line and switch up 2nd drop that compliments conqueror perfectly.

sound sources include field recordings of airport announcements, hammering on metal plates at the former kabelwerk oberspree, berlin, several sounds captured inside the large radio antenna dome at teufelsberg, berlin, dripping water at the botanical garden florence, air condition systems and turbines in las vegas, frankfurt and tokyo, walking on rocks in joshua tree national park, wind from the grand canyon, a friends answering machine, a printer, conversations via mobile phones, typing on an old macintosh keyboard and recordings from tunnel works in switzerland.

1994, the internet is in its infancy, the channel tunnel opens, and ibiza is rocking to the sound of a little unknown track by the name of waterfall. roll forward to today and paul thomas & myke smith bring atlantic oceans ibiza classic bang up to date. while keeping the instantly recognisable arpeggio, chords, they give it some heavy drums, side chained bass and nu skool production to bring it screaming into 2009.

eklo 011, his first single on the label, after his famous >close to me< from the hooksey series, boris horel bring us here his idea of modern house music, a real trip in his mind with his wellknown skills, fat groovy beats, weirdy voices and some chemical hooks that bring his art to a high level of creativity and originality. a1, >how do i look like< is an attempt to mix my love for both old school and new school house music. looking for this kind of >95 tunnel< sound and feeling , but with a modern twist on the form and a more summerish vibe. the pitched vocals helps to push the track towards a weird sliding sensation ,adding a catch to the almost liquid bassline. a2, seuil remix, is something more darky and stripped down, full of analog grooves, sub and crunchy basses, he turns the track in something more deep and afterhour feeling… b, paranoia pantomime , the long side, great old school feeling >a la carter<, rolling shinning hats, fat grumbling basses lead the track...add to this some weird effects and some sexy catchy voices, here is the horels reciepe to bring u back some old feelings from your ravy times. essential debut ep for this new eklo artist. essential 12inch

in a subterranean tunnel, halfway between las vegas and new york is a small after hours venue where the walls are covered in red velvet and the floor littered with dreams and broken promises. over the soundsystem is the trace of a groove, deep and stark, cut into a vinyl that was already worn down before it was played the first time. welcome to the afterparty that never finishes. be careful where you put the drink!

wagon repair are excited to announce the latest ep from berlin based canadian mike shannon. the re-nag ep, his third wagon repair release and first production of 2009, is the latest in a long line of releases from the head of cynosure records, with his work having previously graced imprints from ~scape and num to richie hawtin’s plus 8 records. opener ‘darkstar 3000&#8242,, is a futurist techno stomp. engined by poked melodic tones and a prominent metallic hat, dissonant stealth melodies manoeuvre around percussion and punched bass. biding time to prolong suspense, both bass and key melodic journeys coordinate to climax in a tightly executed sensory assault. ‘sweets (tla mix)’ opens energetically with static percussive tones circling around a pummeling kick. a rapturous vocal takes lead, effervescing within a wind tunnel of wobbly bass melodies and dizzy pads to close. ‘sweets (acapella)’ is an abstract entity, with it’s sole vocal discernibly haunting in the absence of beats and structure. full of texture and space, this is one for the producers that will surely not go to waste.

french artist, lee van dowski of num and cadenza lowers eyes and draws lips to partial smirks with his charming and witty release. „the variable man,“ based on the title of a science fiction story series from the 50’s, is brilliantly transmitted through a tunnel of sound engineering and audio design by lee van dowski. lee’s electronic rendering of „the variable man,“ distinguishes several dominant male voices accumulating a rhythmic momentum to the peak of the track, a peak where an orgasmic flow just stops short of the central explosion, fundamentally, fading the instrumentals before revamping again. the b-side of the track, „thomas coles lives,“ co-produced by agnès, comes alive with a fascinating mix of symbols and keyboards. „the variable man“ is lee’s second release on leena music, after his first 12“, „louder elvis,“ in collaboration with agnès appeared on leena in 2008. both tracks express very minimalistic tones yet are characterized by rather divergent

satellite religion. spacetime 2009 - the world needs to prepare for the drone tunnel. one of the most dark andimpressive tracks comes out on the statik entertainment – label, made by the brits grit and sen. this is the discovery of warm feeling, enveloping depth and icy cold isolationism. it is dub-techno – endless endless, beautifulendless

chef new yorker aka commander tom de lux is kickin our ass directly to the floor. its 2000 again, baby!

phunk investigation, dj schiuma and bravo junior on remix duties here!!

the tracks from the recently released full length of nublu orchestra beg for remixes, and the underground resistance militiamen take up the task for sketches of nyc. the i 80 mix is a big thumper, using a scatted vocal line and dissonant horn hits from the original to add drama to the build of an acid bassline and some tastefully tribal drums. the seventh tunnel mix falls squarely in the tech jazz genre that was essentially invented by the detroit collective. the original elements of sketches are used generously, with what seems like a grace note on the upright being turned into a looped bassline, over which the lead vocals and saxophone ping back and forth. must have!!

two electro flavoured house bombs for the modern clubber. prophetization is more suitable for night time or right before the sun rises. electro rhythms, cosmic synth notes accompanied by a fat bass. lost in space, its dark, the bright strings call from afar and bring hope. the light shines at the end of the tunnel. pazuzu on side b is a mixture of bleeps and atmospheric pads sustained by a housey beat, chugging along to a dubby sub bass. perfect for those early mornings lost on the dancefloor in a state of trance.

kontra-musik 006 moves the label into the analog domain of electronic dance music. this kind of sound you only get with the good old analogues. the a-side, produced by the master of the modular system, pseudonym scaff, takes us deep down our favorite techno memory lane. if techno was the meeting of kraftwerk and george clinton in an elevator, ssm 440 is the outcome of jeff mills and maurizio having breakfast at tiffanys. this track is warm, dubby and monotonous but with a drive heading straight for the late night dance floor. the b-side gives us two unique sounding tracks from pseudonym aparatus. city tunnel slowly and elegantly grinds, cranks and turns while building its way towards dance floor bliss. x-presso is best described as periodic fluctuations of voltages in the analog domain. elegant details of beautiful sound take us back to the time when minimal music still was interesting. this is >techno< in the sense that the term was originally intended. enjoy cause analog is the bastard

adk and evil concussion teams up again for >the underground doesnt stop iii<. this wicked 4 tracker brings us directly away, out from our reality, inside into a deep and far mystic world. after the >made in germany< release that was played by sven väth at the time warp festival, starts adk aka andreas kremer his own and new style with elements of minimal, techno, neotrance, techhouse & electro acid tunes

loco dice undertakes the remixing of the ibadan classic son of raw in the first of a series of remixes of ferrer works originally out on ibadan. with some of the most soulful and original techno productions on the market, he does not disappoint. an epic ten minute slice of modern house music that falls, like the original, somewhere between genres, loco dice creates a tunnel of atmosphere combining key elements for the original and adding fly life type efx that build throughout.
