bassbuero a.k.a. thomas ingold and his partner björn müller are long-year resident djs and promoters in our hive club and come around the corner with a smooth customer debut. the title could not be any more designative, as with this is not house music we have a knotless and outstanding 90s number with lots of pathos and - declaredly - they have looked over some shoulders of big protagonists from france. when the vocoder chords are crossing swords with this insane bassline, every ravers heart must beat at least one octave higher. this is the tune for a perfect sunrise and big feelings on the floor. on the flip we have gruber & nuernberg, some good pals of bassbuero that played in hive several times as well - they contribute a complete antipole to the the original. almost a bit trancey they spin the chords over a straight old school house groove, never let the basic spirit of the original out of sight and though don t forget to leave their very own traces on this remix. in addition we have - as with every release - a digital exclusive bonus track, that certainly does not deserve the rating house music - lets call it rather fidget than deep. but be sure, its all gone will blow your mind out.

echospace are proud to announce the third ep from the forthcoming cv313 album, >dimensional space<. this release marks the first remix from one of the uks most revered talents -- king midas sound (the bug) who manages to take the original in a direction one would never expect, creeping and trembling right at the very core of your very being. this is truly the midst of something beautiful, its haunting, infectious and has no restrictions to gravity, this is truly something to float in. next we have a heady subliminal interpretive from seattles, rafael anton irisarri as the sight below (ghostly) there is a reason why his sound has even turned the head of radiohead front man thom yorke and if i had to guess i would say its rafaels emotional range, he tugs right at the heart strings. this mix is as narcotic as you would expect, a slow motion dream where in every twist and turn a new detail unfolds, its like visiting an unexplored world -- subtle and hypnotic. on the b side (our first sound snippet) we have a more 4/4 number culled from deepchord presents: echospace (modern love) live set from this past year. this one has been tried and tested at countless shows and club floors around the world. its all about that syncopated bassline, a subterranean bottom and an atmosphere as deep as the ocean floor -- this is underwater space funk.

pelacha has been focused on her playground project in the past few years, with the support of her friends, she now decides to pursue a project that will round up her musical career: the launch of red sonja records, certainly a very personal way of understanding techno, which has been an obvious part of her career up to this date. this passion now results in two releases. and this is just the beginning... the first release contains pelachas cuts in their purest style, techno without additives, a drum and bass line that absorbs the spotlight, led by a line that sets the synth pace - simple and effective. heiko lauxs interpretation gives this track a german touch, tight bass and a touch of surround development sound pure and highly hypnotic.

what a perfect definition of minimal techno, differing from all this crap that made minimal suffering over the last months. swen hutmacher aka shi buka and thomas wangorsch know where to set samples, sounds and elements, and italian fellows nihil young and alex d elia deliver some nice personal flavour on the original as you are used from their work for labels like rekluse or their very own frequenza. this is the deal!

italians do it better owner/traveling dj salesman/heavy record collector mike simonetti takes an edit to three very obscure 90s house tracks. we were able to recognize the a-side with some help. the track was altered significantly and intro extends and builds and builds and builds... the two tracks on the b-side sound like 90s japanese piano house and a happy house rave track flipped on 33 but to be honest, we have no idea what they are.

a very tasty ep from 1605 featuring phunk investigation / steve parker / ephrun & anthony pappa

espania fast becoming the techno capital of europe! slight exageration perhaps, but maybe those days won t be too far away. the transhuman label bursts onto the scene with a very impressive 5 track ep from arcanoid and the transhumans. from the off, the label plants is flag slap bang in the middle between detroit and berlin, which geographically may be somewhere in the mid atlantic, but musically, you ll probably know what we mean. check postindustrial for a killer slice of techno the likes of which robert hood could be making these days

nice price deal !!! andnotors fourth vinyl release sees rubadubs very own line idle laying down a hefty techno workout, which combines analogue crispness with distorted synths and a brooding vocal for maximum dancefloor devastation. mixing land cruising-era melodic bounce with a dirty electronic throb, tense slowly builds to a crescendo as the vocals rise up through the mix until the hook kicks in and it all gets messy. on the flipside, nu42Æs acid remix does exactly what it says on the tin, arpeggiating the synths, adding a healthy dose of squelch and fracturing the vocals to make a much more grinding long-player. whilst the original is a peak-time techno beast, the flip is pure warehouse material, nine-minutes of slowly-evolving drops and breakdowns designed for an early hours of the morning after-party. tense is andnotors fourth vinyl, after limited-edition releases from cledus snow, tj kong and aleksandr jurczyk, and each copy comes individually hand-stencilled. previous releases have gained them a substantial following from djs like tom middleton, kenny larkin, mark bell (lfo), mark moore (s express) and erwin van moll.

its not really necessary to introduce catherine britton aka cassy anymore. throughout the last years she continuously worked on her very own definition of house. besides releasing on labels like playhouse, minus, mental groove, dessous, get physical and perlon, she also started her own label, entitled cassy. shes also known for her countless collaborations with musicians like ricardo villalobos, steve bug, dj elin, dave the hustler, luciano, mathew jonson and swayzak and of course for her excellent dj-sets all around the world. perl82 is cassys third 12inch for perlon.
