uk born, berlin based producer, ed davenport, is the latest artist to debut on nrk music, with an awesome two track release. >curtain call< and >overdub in am< showcase davenports smooth, deep tech-house sounds, heavy on the dub side!
davenport has already enjoyed positive attention on his releases for esteemed labels such as poker flat, liebe*detail, vidab and district of corruption. recent remixes for len faki on cocoon, and guy j on jon digweeds bedrock label, are also helping to bring his name to the forefront of the scene.
his debut nrk release features a remix by nrks nick harris. >curtain call< is a heavyweight, tribal workout, with plenty of rolling percussion amongst its nagging vocal clips and big, twisted pads. >overdub...< is a dub-heavy houser, an extremely well produced, warm and hypnotizing, deep dancefloor track.

slamming remix package with hot mixes coming from riva starr , jeff mills and freeform five

fourth release on the excellent new label affiliated to the acclaimed website and blog cosmic boogie cosmic boogie are back and drop two funk fuelled bombs for the fourth release on the imprint. first up is a driving, peak time version of wars classic hard edged funk cut >youngblood<. cut up, extended and rearranged, it has a devastating impact when it hits the dancefloor. flip side cut, >the users<, is a heavily percussive funk outing that is packed full of joyful soul, a heavy dose of boogie and a hint of caribbean groove. re-mastered and cut loud for vinyl lovers, cosmic boogie is all about exploring a different meaning of cosmic. long live the boogie!

rick preston with this new 12 from the worship label. >the magnet< is a chunky, percussive houser for the peaktime crowds, with dubby stabs and vocals mixing it up with a steady bassline, and great drum patterns, while swirling effects top the whole track off nicely. on the reverse, its heavy dubs all the way on a thick, syrupy helping of dub-house, packed with ragga goodness.

worship keep their string of great releases going with this newie from seinan. >glow< is a bouncing dubby houser of the first order, with a killer bassline underpinning great drums, stabbing horns and guitar riff, and the ever-present reggae vibe on this superb dub excursion. on the reverse, >dubberware< is another bubbling dubby house gem, this time with a bit more emphasis on the house than the dub, with superb percussion, shuffling beats, and dubby guitar licks all combining atop another dubbed out bassline.

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.

one of the uk leading purveyors of funky, underground and cutting-edge house, burnski steps up to bat once again with >me and you< - his latest 12 inch for dessous. after recent outings under steve bugs poker flat imprint, as well as an amazing remix of gamal kabars >4 lally< on the new poker flat digital platform, our man continues his story with 2 up-front originals house cuts dripping with class.
trickling, throbbing and swirling around an excitable voodoo house percussion track, the haunting vocal snippets and midnight synth hooks of >me and you< combine and build to a veritable crescendo. understated, cool and collected, its a mature track that finds its roots firmly in the tech-tribal house patch, yet reaches out in the beyond with freaky, funky vibes throughout!
>the light< kicks off with a suitably burnsksi-esque groove, slowly unfolding into a jacking, bouncy and fresh classic houser. airy, playful and glistening with the morning sun of a new day, the track doesnt let go of the night however and makes for a real late-doors burner. no-nonsense quality house music for those who know.

played by: gary beck, matthias schaffauser, alexi delano, hawtin, spektre, citizen kain, dave ellesmere, anderson noise, ahmet sendil, erphun, audiojack, pierre deutschmann and many others!

our man ryo murakami sends over the next transmission in his exciting and growing catalogue of productions. always inspired by the raw and soulful sound of chicago and new york, this next ep puts forward his vision and continuation of this timeless house feeling. lead track >just for this< is a wonderful celebration of heavy slow motion house. classic house references and even a few classic samples meet in a dirty, deep ride into the tweaked out and extended vibes of the late night people. a journey through the city of house, a perfect refl ection of the times, bringing warmth and light in a once colder world. graeme clark aka the revenge, a fi gure who has enjoyed much success with his deviant disco sound, steps up for remix duties - and a fi ne job he does too! building his mix from the bare bones, adding a little more pace and forward momentum, his version is also tightly bound within the roots of emotional, deep vibes house. this is an outstanding remix - functional, clear and fully devoted to the classic sound. on the b side a mysterious original, >untitled<, sees ryo pushing things a little further still. the energy levels climb higher and higher as this modern hypno-houser phases and pulses upwards over nearly 8 minutes of jacking, sample laden freshness. we love to visit ryos house, where everybodys welcome and theres smiles all round

pure and simple brazilian houser on ssoh produced by claude monnet and featuring a host of live musicians as well as the lush vox of brazilian singer monica nogueira. all mixes have a rich vibe to them and there are two beats only mixes as well.

the 9th release on excentric muziks off-shoot rekluse brings with it a very welcome edition to the rekluse family, we are sure matt cooper is somebody who you will be hearing a lot more about in the nearest future, that is if you havent heard of him already...
from his mixmag >future hero< tag, to his efx1000 tutorial videos for pioneer (he has been likened to james zabiela but with bigger bass lines) and his ongoing residency at the dirty disco in leeds (the northern light was the original home for the club night which the ep title pays homage to), the only piece missing from his jigsaw was the production side of things, until now. he recently teamed up with spektre to launch their new respekt label with the >cuernos cubanos< collaboration, and now we are very proud to present matts first ever solo productions, brought together as >the northern light ep<.
>pack your trunks< is dark twisted statement of intent, with a hearthrob-esque hook giving off the feeling that the track is ever so slightly on the brink of loosing it, before that tough gloomy groove reminds you just why you were listening in the first place, and why you have to listen to it just that one more time...
>triptup< attacks with a driving upbeat vibe that also arrives with a crazy tinged edge to it, keeping the dance floor bouncing off the walls, this has never failed to receive anything less than devastating reactions during its many roadtests on our travels.
>the swinger< rounds off the ep with a kinky tech houser that swaps the power of its 2 harder brothers for some chirpy tomfoolery, without compromising on its absolute effectiveness to well and truly rock the party whilst getting completely stuck in your head. and dont forget the breakdown...

cityfox moves on and winds up its first label year with a pretty crazy ep by zurichs hottest new talent andri. dive into his funky, weird, psychedelic worldwhile listening to the seven tracks. they all feature andris unique groove, sound and vocal signature. and still, each one of them has its own character: be it the straight forwardness in the change, the cool groove of feel in love with uuu, the catchy funky vox in housers revenge or the hit machine tschege.

supernature hasnt put a foot wrong since its inception back in late-2007 with a stream of fluid, percussive housereleases hitting the spot for an army of high profile jocks.
>el condor< by pele closes a great 2009 for the label and maintains the quality levels in fine style. with just a handful of original releases since 2005, mostly for the impeccable connaisseur imprint, patrick gallenmüller aka pele has managed to make a disproportionate impact on housemusic. his releases and remixes have seen massive support and a quick check on his myspace reveals a dj diary of artists twice as prolific - a testament to the quality of his work (and his djing). the title cut of this threetrack/one remix ep sees the bavarian producer present a track which combines the simplest of elements into a hynpotic yet memorable track.

2002 classic by yann fontaine (ovum. low pressings) with a deep, deep rerub from west caost favourite lance desardi (seasons). in a very metro area vibe, lance takes the dubby tech original into a smoked out trip of new wave keys and mininimal drums, that morgan geist would sweat on. the flip heads into rob paine world, with a low rumbling bassline and rasta fills. a litle more reserved than yanns normal tech housers, this is a cool track that could easily be on bluem or environ.

mathias schaffhäuser, sweet n candy & hille remixes of this marvellous tune taken from the album i wanna dance with nobody . the awakening is one of the most beautiful tracks from gunne s album and has kind of a massive attack and björk-flavour. mathias schaffhäuser, sweetncandy and hille represent her own interpretation with a special spice of house, dub and minimal. huge!

our man from up north, moodymanc returns on dessous with another impressive ep brimming with tasty drum dubs, lip smacking deepness and a sizzling remix from dplay & manuel tur. the entree tonight is omlette, a slow building exploration into the depths of moodymancs percussive, synth laden studio style. growing from reduced beats into a room filling perc-dub-house beast, complete with a generous side portion of crispy drums and club-ready high production values…! its a hynpotic, uk meets berlin lesson in modern deep house and were sure youll be hungry for more. stalwart deep housers dplay and manuel tur lend us their 5 star audio-cooking skills with a pumping and dramatic remix that lifts the energy to the rafters with its phasing synth themes and stacatto bass line. guaranteed for the floors, inside and open air alike, this stunning rework combines darkness and light in the unique and addictive way only this pair know how. on the flip we find talker (drum dub. reduced tribal percussion and intense spacial effects are the name of the game here as moodymanc lays down a must-have rolling drum tool that will no doubt find its way into the bags of more creative and djs out there… and stay there forever!

already played by efdemin, akufen, mathias kaden, jimpster, frivolous, magda, jeff samuel, kez ym, mathias schaffhäuser, tomboy and more... strong gymnastic house tunes brought to you straight from the gym. pumping iron by brandt brauer frick… and 1 and 2 and 3! brandt brauer frick produce club music with self-recorded acoustic instruments (prepared piano, vibraphone, drums, various per- cussions, brass and string instruments), rhodes, bass guitar and few analogue synthesizers, as heard on their ep „iron man“ (incl. remixes by lee jones and treplec) or at their great performance at berghain last month. for the gym they have made two rather untypical house tracks, using more synths than they usually would, celebrating a more gymnastic dancefloor approach. enjoy!

supported by stephan bodzin, kombinat100, mathias schaffhäuser, p.toile ..... again that laid-back, humorous and open-minded character of the people of mecklenburg glistens from the grooves of the available acker record. this time it is represented by the gentlemen schaeufler, who is an essential part of the local producer and dj scene since many years, and zovsky, who was musically socialized in trancy sceneries and shows a remarkable versatility. set di dol comes around on a powerful, pushing bass line, precisely placed percussions, minimal melody fragments and an exotic vocal sample make this track distinctly stimulating. after that the two dudes pick up the relaxed and cosy atmosphere of every day, which originally hails from the easy listening genre, and garnish it with reduced but very effective rhythms. on the flipside, the radio version puts this remix even more in a nutshell and finally acker mister mollono.bass presents his version of set di dol on the flipside: based on his typical, bouncing groove, he creates a frisky and somehow tropical atmosphere, using refreshing xylophone sounds and a proper portion of tribalistic percussions

after a winter break and a with new focus on original and forward thinking house, boe is back for 2009 with one of the hottest detroit artists to break onto the scene in years. kris wadsworth is a man who truly has his own unique production style. for years the term minimal has been banded about for music with little soul, originality and that essence of dance music, a groove. kris is a guy whose interpretation of minimalistic music oozes all of these qualities and much, much more, stripped down, funked up house that takes the listener back to when house was raw, full of energy and brimming with soul. his production resembles that of an early herbert, crunching and twisting his way though drum samples and polished chords to create a sound that is simple and intoxicating yet difficult to copy. less, it seems, is most definitely more. dig is kris first four-track ep and showcases his sound through four slices of deep, groovy late night house. the first track the depths of is kris sound summed up in just under nine minutes. the first three minutes belong to a long intro that builds and builds through vox snippets, stab samples, synth chords and h-hats that ride the groove. the track breaks down only to kick back in with a chunky snare and trippy pads to whip the listener into a frenzy. macrotones is a wonky late night rhythm synth track that wouldnt sound out of place at fabric at 7am. on the flip, white bread kicks off where the depths of left off, a catchy rhythm with swinging stabs and moody chords. a growling, gut-moving baseline makes the track a real dance floor favourite. the final track on the ep is haunted house a deep houser with a delayed bassline perfect for those late-night moments.

aus den boxen erklingt ein hyperbeweglicher house mit der wucht von techno, welcher aus dem eigenen ansatz heraus eine perspektive auf das zu entwickeln vermag, was einst an clubmusik so faszinierte und heute immer noch fasziniert

now, here comes daniel herrmanns (aka flug 8) debut album >lösch dein profil< in english >erase you profile< or >delete user<. fully packed with metaphors he overdraws to understate. flug 8 cannot be nailed on any genre-board, but creates a homogeneous melancholic music stuffed up with secret hopes, by reducing it on a hand full of sounds and a certain range of simplified tunes. might this be true kraut-techno?

having forged a keen army of converts to their late night audio nights & establishing a reputation as one of londons best underground parties, it was only a matter of time before they started their own label to release the music they & their party people love to dance to. expect the finest in deep electronic house, balearic boogie and italo flavours, all expertly mastered onto luxurious vinyl with slick graphic artwork. the first artist signed and to be released on the label is french/u.s producer kevin lemonnier recording under the name of das volt. this man uses no plug-ins and a resolutely old skool production philosophy. utilising all analogue signal paths through outboard and vintage gear. his music is justifiably compared to the luxuriously warm and pared down output of metro area, capturing that legendary period between disco & proto house by being a stickler for authenticity. gestures is a modern take on the electro boogie sound, pizzicato strings, silky rhodes and fat bass all blended to create a dance floor gem. fantasy is a modern italo disco classic, with epic pianos setting the mood over a driving trouser flapping bass line. remixes come courtesy of italian outfit telespazio s fabrizio mammarella - who does his deep electro funk thing with immediate dance floor effect, and toby tobias of rekids and late night audio fame, who completes the package with a killer balearic boogie interpretation
