first on decks.de !! lust und freude musik s fifth release arrives from tufan demir of istanbul, who has been making music in various genres under different monikers for some time now. this ep bears tufan s own name and contains tracks of a more personal nature. despite the overall after-hour feel of the toy harmonics, it also draws heavily from modern house music elements. four-to-the-floor pattern of the tracks do not necessarily mean that they are pure house as they encompass an undeniable ambient vein. most of the percussive elements featured here have been recorded by tufan, extracting sounds diligently from a toy archive that includes pieces ranging from action figures to music boxes. the opening number idiot term tricks you with its mighty kicks and hypnotic percussions only to draw you into a dreamy atmosphere made up of pads and intricate structuring. quiet days in a room starts off with a simple sequence and builds into a melodic orgy of bells and synth sounds. the most minimalist of all, back to fine offers the greatest emotional potential - despite its unmistakable dance footing, the track transcends electronic dance formulas thanks to its ingenious instrumentation.

yet another unmissable, under the counter trio of cuts, lovingly crafted from the most unusual of sample sources, combined with squeeky clean production values that make this a dancefloor dead cert. moonshine bears more than a passing resemblance to carl craigs monumental -throw- and ploughs an equally devastating groove, utilizing, of all things a chunk of glitter bands -makes you blind- on the flip the off-kilter but irresistble -revenge of the rock-o-mites- is a re-imagining of the lead track from the incredible rock city band’s impossibly rare electro-funk ep from 83 & sounds like allan parsons remixed by dexter. finally -why d you run away- skillfully reinterprets elements of flash & the pans -ayla- and is more than likely to be blasting out of many an adriactic boat party this summer massive

a made up sound bringing house for the emotionally unstable on 003. drunkenly swaggering along, the punchy discofied-bass-clap-whatever ‘alarm’ is owned by a pair of synth stabs that got out of bed with the wrong foot first. after an almost clowny breakdown, moody pads soon make clear this track ain’t funny at all... ‘crisis’ on the b-side is all about restraint. thick house-not-house beats and a thumping acid bassline move on and on while a vacuum cleaner blues and hazy will-o-the-wisp-like strings slowly creep under the skin. those who like it nice and shiny better think twice... killer twelve!

ltd 2010 repress !!! marco carolas string of recent releases on plus8 and his own 2m imprint are now effortlessly hurtling forward under the weight of their own momentum and the bloody cash ep shows no sign of relenting. in fact if its possible, this collection of four new combustible tunes adds another dimension to his already substantial repertoire. on the title track bloody cash, carola immediately shows his intent, letting fly with a spiraling tribal groove full of bright, crisp percussive elements that stretch skywards towards the sun. the tough, earthy beats keep everything rooted to the ground as he taps into some age-old hedonistic urge, creating a universal groove that rolls out across the oceans before breaking on the shores of each continent with an all encompassing call to dance. the main body of the track incorporates a straight synth stab doused in reverb that sets the scene for the finely crafted main keyboard riff, which is an accomplishment in itself. alternating between two complimentary parts, it elevates the backing track to another level. perfectly balanced and enhanced for maximum danceability, its without doubt one of carolas finest works to date

incl. till von sein & aera paradise dub i guess this is what it comes down to being a musician: fire up a microphone, gimme a rhodes, a bass and some drums and lets start jammin! – thats the attitude! thats exactly what chopstick & johnjon together with label mate and partner in crime fritz kalkbrenner did for this lovely earthy release >keep on keepin on<, not to mention that they downed 3 bottles of vodka and bottles of vine during the session! chopstick & johnjon recorded a live acoustic bass a few weeks back, and still under the influence of the hip hop phenomenon, they decided to keep every single sound dirty and real. breaking out of the ordinary and the usual steps of making house music, the 3 musicians recorded almost every single sound in that song..

the amazing situation return with two sides of love – gangster love and sutra love. the gangster side is an amazing clash of a skit from american gangster (heavily inspired by the eddy grant produced >funky like a train< by the equals) with donna summer. the resulting blend is as inspiring and surprising as it is unlikely. but with their usual disregard for boundaries and rules, situation seamlessly melt the two original cuts together into a perfect slice of discoid boogie that absolutely sets fire to the dancefloor. on the flip side, love of a deeper and groovier type oozes from sutra love. its a case of yet more top class, bass led disco action thats firmly focussed on maximum dancefloor reaction. this is without a doubt one of the best situations ever! and with heavy releases on disco deviance and their own imprint already under the belt that really is saying something.
