new release on millions of moments by a unknown artist (or maybe not so unknown?). all we know is that this is delivered to us under the name of northworks). comes as no info labels and has 3 deep, deeper dubby techno in bc/ cr vein. a must for all basic channel afficianados

the something vinyl series continues this time with seductive house tunes and deep moments for the dancefloor and places beyond. five tracks and four bonus loops makes this the next typical warm vibrating something record, you have probably already expected. as the title suggests, its not a perfect clean and faultless production. there is the dirt and a sound inhabitant, for what stl records are well known for. experimentations in the worlds of hardware based tone generators and at the limits of analog signal processors. the tracks also deliberately dispense much static computer arrangements and were recorded mostly in live sessions to capture the actual feeling for each song. every being is a universe of its own, with all it s known and unknown places. there are mistakes and inner strangers which are made to learn and grow. this record is a recent snapshot from someones life, where the love for music and sound is maybe the most beautiful mystery!

double a side release from a london based unknown artist on this dark dubstep label inspired by early 90s sampling culture. first tune up is a dark and heavy stepper with sinister vocals drenched in echo. mutated basslines sit nicely under face slap snares. flip side is a nice roller that never lets up, a chunky bassline plays off the relentless beats while paranoia samples bring on the thc induced psychosis.

nice price deal !!!

catcalling from the depths of a city seen from the outside as crumbling, sonic grooves carve a path to the soulful detroit duo known simply as the oliverwho factory. first noticed across the primitive music sharing plateaus of a decade past, the oliverwho factory quickly gained notoriety overseas with a glasgow based distribution, and a keen sense of product importance, releasing rich, mood-driven tracks on vinyl, inspired by and resonating the roots of rock, pop, jazz, and r&b. earth near-silently stumbles with the distinct yet mysterious, funk laden blend of house and techno that oliverwho and shonie c. so naturally provide. like stepping into dreamscapes of unknown desire, the obscure flavor of owf s tunes keeps unconventional beauty and otherworldly adventure at the forefront of this duo s detroit-based soundboard.

second release on the new ibadan offshoot, public service recordings. >life story< gets the ball rolling with some bumping disco-fueled peaktime house, with a strong female vocal dominating atop a bed of funky bass, stellar synth lines, and solid house beats. yohan squares >love of life< takes the mood a little deeper with some lush late night house, blending sweeping textured synth lines behind a deep bassline groove and shuffling late night house beats. on the reverse, julian jonahs >jealousy of lies< is a detroit-flavored late night houser, with textured synth lines, a stellar spoken male vocal, and laidback beats and bassline all combining perfectly. last up is >rey-d<, a deep late night track that utilizes some fairly bumping beats behind a minimal bassline and rich chords for some minimal floor grooves.

with 2009s magnificiently deep >cone ep< raudive aka oliver ho became an integral part of the ever brilliant macro family. the man is in there for a reason. now he drops one of macros most dancefloor-centered, yet distinctively future forward outings so far. >paper< - the chord, the bass, the strings! all deepness ingredients are there and it would be just classic if it wasnt raudive in control, whose chord is rather acoustic than synthetic, whose strings are rather xenakis than detroit - and whose bassline is just pumping genius blasting any reference system. but its a double pack of excessive excellence. >brittle< is papers evil sister and a giant step in groove design, throwing the thrills of the unknown right at your dancefloor. its repetitious, maniacal vexation patterns put any record to shame that has ever been called hypnotic. 2010 is right here. the ep is rounded off with the shimmering >sienna< - a no-beat melodic variaton set against the warmth of grainy crackle. one of the most thrilling releases by one of the most thrilling labels

there is a new name on cargo edition, but by no means an unknown one. as a dj markus schatz has been on the move for years now, all the while maintaining his roots in the berlin club scene. markus started producing in 2004 and both his solo eps and collaborations with tom clark on highgrade records and opossum recordings last year clearly demonstrate that his talents go far beyond the turntables. and now for his first ep on cargo edition, markus takes a step further into the musical spectrum. drippin is a nimble house track accented with a note of funk and the smooth vocals of sean andino, giving the track a slight pop-appeal. in contrast flippin gives us a beautifully reduced form of house all driven by a powerful rolling bass line, a textbook example of less is more. as a perfect ending restart surprises with its smooth house arrangements and sophisticated deepness. a truly versatile ep from a truly versatile producer.

pong musiq presents sven schienhammer aka quantec! he grew up in the 80s and have been working on electronic music since 1995. he maintains a fruitful relationship with the styrax label and produced a plethora of dub tech gems over the recent years in labels like echocord, millions of moments, meanwhile, smallfish and francois ks wavetec label. he s been considered the natural successor of moritz von oswald and mark ernestus (basic channel). this 3rd ep on pong musiq records contains 4 absolutely massive tracks for all the dub-techno fans out there. sven proves his amazing talent and moves his sound to the next level. floating music with hovering chords and his characteristic kick-drum shuffle, shimmering keys edging into the mix for a truly tripped out excursion from the deepest recesses of berlins techno dub vault. it is very hard to capture the feeling arising from this great music in words.

every new record from mlz doesnt quite fit in with the one that preceded it, something thats doubly true for this new release.
>one cycle< on the a-side is probably the most fierce, stripped and relentless thing ever released by modern love, a classic reduction that rotates into a frenzied crescendo of panning stabs and a washed out, chugging backbone that doesnt let-up throughout its 7 minute duration.
the flipside offers up something else entirely, a remix for hitherto unknown operator dj ghosthunter, a shady character not quite ready to unmask himself. mlzs remix offers a dank and obliterated house configuration, guided by the spirit of theo parrish and kdj.

after a couple of artist eps, white is back with a new release of their well-known faces series . this time with an unknown face so far: tristen tristen has been an integral part of the white crew ever since. it was just a matter of time, until he was ready to release some tunes. everybody new, if that guy ever finishes a track, it ll be a bomb. and so it came. a track which announces a state of emergency on the floor. with deep chords and strings, which scream so high right at ya, that you can t resist dancing. on the flipside edward puts out a melancholic ravemonster. but still in edward style! minimal and housy, with a slightly touch of a jazzy trance. but always with an eye for the deep. a track like a dream-like scuba dive... once again edward proofs, that he is one of the most outstanding young producers in the game, right now.

ricardo jefferson is a producer and dj based in manchester, england. the four tracks on this ep demonstrate a distinctive style. the roots of his sound are in funk, disco, space rock, prog rock, but he has melded them into a sound that is more than just the sum of these elements. this is funky, bass-heavy, trippy techno for the dance floor. a1 a brutal truth. this is a big tune that builds relentlessly. the track has an inclusive, celebrational, feel which simply invites everyone to lose it on the dance floor. 124bpm. a2 persons unknown. this tune doesn t have the relentless build of a brutal truth. instead, this is a tune to drop when everyone on the dancefloor is in the zone and locked into the groove. a finely crafted trip created with multiple delays skittering around the sound field, anchored by the funky bass heavy groove. 123 bpm. b1 the egg part one. a track employing a tight kick drum of differing weights to propel the groove, overlayed with a circular keyboard motif. on the off-beat, add the processed sound of someone hitting a metal sheet, and viola! - one aggressively funky dance floor bomb! 123 bpm. b2 god of the machine. this track has a simple 4x4 kick and handclap pattern pinning down a delicious oscillating bass line, under a classic descending four chord circular chord progression. off kilter ride cymbals give the track its backbone, and fluidity. ricocheting handclap delays add dimension. sly stone would be proud of this groove. now get on the dance floor and strut your stuff! 119 bpm. the cover shows a still image from the music video a brutal truth directed by ricardo jefferson and laura lee.

heavy support from laurent garnier, ricardo villalobos, luciano, loco dice, raresh, pedro, rhadoo, dubfire, andrew grant, ali nasser and more … old-school style floor destroyer!!! posh 111 is an unknown mystery hailing from romania. with 2 outstanding cuts packed with waves of optimism and snickfest enticed skullduggery he has delivered a superble bewben of a brutish pigeon chested blooter. includes a super rare and unique remix by petre inspirescu who fuses together both >nedenumit< & >the coco song< in a way only he can

hot new remixes by electric indigo, mutron and akiko kiyama. moonraker has become an ep that is among the best house music has brought us last year. (mix mag). the original house mix, which is a deliciously nasty reflection of the outfits sinister electrohouse sound. the rather minimal introduction is soon enough spiced up with a clash of synths that sound industrial and melancholic at the same time, thereby creating a dreamy and utterly brilliant vibe as spacey as spacey can be. it s proggy, it s electro, it s on the edge of deep house too, but above all, it s absolutely amazing. frank muellers america mix takes care of the final remix with a more uptempo and more towards progressive club rocker featuring brilliantly sampled vox, shifting synths and lots of deep sound waves. whereas the previous two tunes engage on a hypnotic trip, this one shoots the listener even further beyond the stars right into the unknown depths of space. the uptempo rhythm is what makes this track an absolute insane piece of progressive/deep house music, and therefore a definite must-have. you simply can not afford to let this ep pass you by. 365 mags absolute number one ep of this autumn, and unlikely to be bettered this year.

tensnake has been hamburgs best-kept secret. has been! past 12inchs for labels like radius, mirau (which he co-runs) or his gorgeous >keep believin< three-tracker for endless flight speak louder than words. on top he delivered all these nice remixes for the likes of junior boys ( fm÷ is theee one), sally shapiro or more recently toby tobias on rekids. firmly rooted in new yorks sweaty boogie dreams and with a soft spot for dazzling house music, >in the end< stays true to tensnakes juicy techniques and pleases our friends and colleagues (radio slave, robet dietz, prins thomas, gilbr, mark e) alike. we start off with a courageous house tune that has all the qualities of an a-side and concisely defines the dilemma of lovers: in the end someone always has to cry. but as long as it sounds like a cutty ranks rocket launcher, we want test it. the other side of the medal features >holding back my love< a slow-motion disco robot bomb with a crooning tensnake on the mic that makes everyone feel happy like they should. finally, >thethenunknown< somehow melts the moodiness of early factory records (think a certain ratio with a little finger exercise) with the atmosphere of kenneth dixon jr.s >misled< - one for the heart, soul and your headphones. at least, gerd feels and thinks like that. speaking of feelings. if downloads are your thing, you can get the digital bonus track >can you feel it< at all the usual spots. how is that for a change? this guy aint a blindschleiche

he making of this record inadvertently began in cuba in january 2008. powershovelaudio was recording in la havana some of the best contemporary cuban singers and musicians. the resulting recordings were of an inspiring beauty. the situation was that powershovelaudio had this outstanding collection of voices, woods and brass, all infused by the tropical warmth. it was first-class material that should be put in the best hands possible, then maayan came to mind. ônight longö is a synthetic work. maayan has inexplicably, quickly and with incredible precision captured the essence and the expressivity of the cuban musicians and taken it to a hitherto unknown place. maayan is of course well-known for her diligent talent in inserting voices of quality in her mixes, but in this occasion the result is more than surprising. instead of concentrating in her signature minimal beats, maayan has experimented with different cadences, depths and moods, leaving behind her swirl a disconcerting record of inspired beauty. this art in this record is graced with photography by one of the best and most influential photographers in the world: moriyama daido. maayan asked moriyama san for permission to use the cover image, a request which moriyama san, after listening to the record, gladly accepted
