meridian is a perfect example of dj 3000s evolution as a producer. the mark of a good producer is to never stop growing, once you do, you are condemned to making the same record over and over again and hoping no one notices. this record is the perfect marriage between the percussive staples of the motech sound, and a new lighter exploration of sound elements by dj 3000. >meridian< dares you to sit still while listening to it, or to stand on the wall if you are near a dance floor. its ability to make you dance as well as captivating your ear if you are sitting and listening illustrates the dynamic flexibility of the motech sound.

adam beyers drumcode label has its ten year anniversary this year and there will be many releases as well as a massive compilation album project later in the year featuring brand new tracks from many of the label s key artists. one of the newest additions is the producer of this new release - tor lowkrantz or mighty thor as he is known. this 4 tracker again demonstrates the open musical policy of the label. the last hardcell release was a fine piece of work demonstrting influences from both hard and minimal techno sensibilities. this release focuses more on the harder end of the scale but still remains fresh with its almost old jeff mills and rob hood influences. all 4 tracks have a fat groove and are saturated with funk yet still pack serious punch in any set. another winner from drumcode

a truly stunning two tracker of tracks that could make you dance as well as cry. this should quite easily crossover to all genres and has mass appeal

this year adam beyer s seminal drumcode label celebrates its 10th anniversary. to commemorate this there will be a wealth of material coming out this year as well as some special drumcode parties after the summer that will feature hardcell and grindviks amazing live act. this follows their live cd release from the end of last year. as part of this the gain series will now continue with more material from these 2 and this is the first 4 tracker to continue the series. the tracks themselves are a fresh and varied ranging from the hard synth driven anthem that is salt and the harder driving rhythm gate bay to the exceptionally subtle groove with deep chords that is plankton to the sublime fish tank with its clever building feel and uplifting pads

michael and tom push us to the floor, move our feet and feed the brain as well.

next big coup on the well-established höhenregler label with finest minimal pumping beats and fractional psychedelic hooklines. plays from önür özer, loco dice, monika kruse, nick curly, pete tong, someone else, italoboys, laurent garnier

well known classic !!!

this is quite simply one of the most glorious records you will hear this year. it would be easy to lazily reference it against classic period rephlex/planet mu stuff (oops, i just did!), and indeed it appears to share some of the same heritage (even going so far as to feature a remix of rephlex artist global goon in its tracklisting) - but chris leary aka ochre is obviously a man on his own mission. gorgeously lush, but at the same time super-funky…as electronic as kraftwerk starring in a remake of tron, yet somehow as pastoral and organic as edward elgar…much like his label-mate ed chamberlain, leary manages that tricky task of being supremely technical in his programming and arrangements, but without losing the heart and soul of the music amidst all the studio trickery. you know that old chestnut often said when referring to vintage or classic music, >they dont make them like that any more<? well they do…and here it is! simply fantastic.

yes, hes back with a huge follow up, after his first impress he left with down. his decision to work with the wonderful and unique voice of soniamiki was just magnificient. marlon krupa is well known in the minimal techno szene because of his digital releases, which always climed the highest positions in digital download charts. its high time to introduce him to the friends of vinyl. with his minimal remix, he will impress! at least, racso and jenn pushed the original in their different kind of styles and generate at all, a record with a high variety of sound and styles. taste the full-bodied flavour of the night!

fresh new electro label coming straight outta berlin ! and by electro we dont mean some lame-ass four-to-the-floor shite soaked in distortion and full of all the latest ‘hotsamples, fresh from a timenspace cd. this is the real deal, six tracks of well thought out machine music, where the funk is in the circuits… automated syndrome 1 defines the first set of symptoms which robots (or other artificial intelligence) show while being exposed to a series of certain stimulants. to acquire information regarding any artificial intelligence amongst your family, friends or colleagues the bass4bots label is now proud to be offering you all the data necessary in one complete package. get yours before the others do!

ripe analogue waveforms with a real techno killer for the floor. guy mcaffer and lenny dee know exactly what it takes to move the crowd and tested these tracks numerous times and found the time right to have them available for all the fans! strong techno beats, basslines and an uplifting vibe that works very very well

well, the summer festival season is near its end, time to bring you some of the raw stompers that youve been dancing to this season! greg notill and i will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger: if there ever was a famous movie quote to capture the pure essence of the friendly frenchmans track it would be this line from pulp fiction. fierce beats, frantic percussion and even some acid influences. this one has it all! motormorfoses eto and gab, the devistating duo from brazil are now operating from spain and though the name may have changed, the output remains the same. pure relentless beats and power! after opening their track with an electro type bassline and some nice broken beats, pure havoc kicks in soon as the beat drops. hardtrax half of the hardtrax vs. jackhamma liveact and the german bridge between hardtechno and hardcore techno. the dark force recordings co owner comes up with an intriguing brew of raw beats, precise positioned percussion and an 80s type of choir sound that will simply blast you away!dj ogi the torch holder of the croatian techno scene recently spawned us with numerous strong releases on labels such as submissions and cannibal society. we are pleased to say he maintains this line and even raises the bar a little by incorporating some oldschool elements. bet you cant control your feet when you hear this track

limited to 500 copies worldwide, eminor#16 is a shure shot! its well-done mixture of a nasty vocal with twinkle-toed basslines, scatterbrain will certainly hit crowds by surprise. on the other side, knurrhahn - composed with labelowner wahrlich - is a functional and repetitive pusher. with this record, carbon from hamburg makes clear which way the wind blows and where his musical development is leading to

frankfurts arne weinberg comes with his matrix label debut e.p. >a true story<. this brilliant release follows in the footsteps of legendary techno composers kenny larkin, dan curtin, as well as the softer side of jeff mills.

this record has been in the making for some time. originally, hott 22 created a track called, &#147,i feel love&#148,. bonnie bailey heard the song, loved the track, and wanted to write lyrics to it. bonnie and eric kupper went into the studio with hott 22&#146,s track to record and produce bonnie&#146,s lyrics for it. after we heard bonnie&#146,s performance, we were extremely excited, and asked the legendary eric kupper to create a new remix. shortly after, we asked thomas gold to work his magic on the track and he created some real gems to an already solid package. finally, the alter ego live element had to get in on the project as well, and produced two more floorfillers.

moody moon e.p ( spagh records) spagh records is an electronic music label which concentrates its energy on techno, house and electro. created in 2005, spagh records wants to follow the way of authenticity and eclectism. after being well received by the public, the first e.p “dozen lives” was notably playlisted by artists such as dave clarke, laurent garnier, dj 3000 and james penninghton. the label spagh records is now releasing its second ep. in this second publication, the label shows another facet of their style angling towards deep techno. the ep, aptly titled “moody moon” and produced by hip-j, is a surprising and bewitching creation that draws the listener in for an aural expedition with every play, plunging to the heart of techno, weird and hazy, as melodic as it is stirring. his latest e.p has already received good feedbacks and is now being played by dj chloé (kill the dj) and toni vokado (electric avenue, kodiara records).

after 3 succesfull releases, this label has slowly proven it self. stephane signore, the headhoncho of the label, has gathered a nice selection of artists around the label so far. wehbba, hertz, pedro delgardo, reaky and others. this 4th release is the next stephane signore single. on this release he has delivered 2 absolute monster tracks, and asked reaky and lars klein to deliver their remixes. lars klein brings his 2008 minimal inspired techno burner. clicks and bits with a techno attitude. reaky, one of the most succesfull new comers to this game, takes it into a completely other direction, a well funky tribal explosion with a subtle throbbing bassline vibe. proper, rolling techno for the masses!

including 2 mixes from the man himself james curd, as well as 2 remixes from dan x and lil marks.... little bonus with the accapella too.... great chicagoan package.

muzik mix tape winner alison marks has come a long way, outlasting the magazine that initially brought her to prominence. john tejada is one of her many admirers and no doubt, this ep will win her many more. very cool headphone house that translates perfectly to the deeper floors around 3 a.m. as well as a great soundtrack to the all back to mine sessions- a deep and meaningful tech lesson.

hot on the heels of her last feel good smash these times, comes kimaras latest jammer far away, with two very distinctive remixes, the first by distant musics jon cutler. one might think we picked jon because of his coincidental label/song title relation, but one would be wrong! we picked jon because his superb production skills. the man behind the worldwide triumph its yours, as well as many others, brings a good bit o bounce to the dance floor on this remix. his lush piano chords, funky percussion, and synth zaps are a perfect bed for kimaras strong vibrant vocals to lay upon. he also turns in a truly slick dub for those looking for a bit less vox. for those looking for more tech, one of our favorite new dance producers out of japan, hideo kobayshi, slings us with a tougher, warpier punch (and dub) that ll get hearts and feet movin in synch.

j gorton is a seattle based producer and dj who has drawn on his vast knowledge of discos dark underbelly to put together these outstanding edits of lesser known, but no less wonderful cuts from the heyday. his informative and well respected american athlete blog has become an addictive and invaluable resource for all eager disciples of the good groove, shining a light on the often forgotten tracks which fell between the cracks of the mirrorball. cabana disco vol. 01, is the first in a series of ridiculously limted (200 copies) 12s. the series starts off with mr. les stache reworking three amazing rarities which include gepy & gepys 1979 disco classic african love song, alongside this sits an obscure cut from kurt hauensteins (of supermax) late 70s disco group bamboo, as well as the 1979 mid-tempo cosmic disco classic livin in the jungle by john tropea. this is an absolute essential for any disco enthusiast.

big with: josh wink, gregor tresher, agnès, jimpster, djulz, alex attias, brothers vibe, sebo k, 2020vision, 3channels, lauhaus, davide squillace, nic fianculli,... simon flower, who since his first release on curl curl left his mark with productions on poker flat, moon harbour and recently railyard, now releases his second 12 on curl curl: still here, still there. while residing a world away on the idyllic isles of new zealand, here he makes a heavy nod to the detroit of the early 90s. he mixes it with his own deep hypnotic style, resulting in a release which sounds uncoventional yet combines the multi-layered repetition of an almost timeless techno style. the key to flowers unique sound is the influence from his well-honed and organic live set, which has lead to growing bookings across europe. both parts of still here, still there match funk and dancefloor pressure, and have been integrel to his live set for years.

support comes from steve bug, shinedoe, karotte, james flavour, gruber & nuernberg, paulo olarte !! highgrade goes east! with homm & popoviciu the berlin-gang grows in the eastern direction - to be specific: romania. their musical..output..of both wasn..t hard to spot, because markus homm and mihai popoviciu made a name for themselves for quite a while. no wonder that their output spreads across several..high-class..labels like dj hell..s international deejay gigolos, pascal feos.. non zero records, as well as the british immigrant and the spanish sub conce label. after their first strike - highgrade digital number 009, this is their first vinyl ep on highgrade. without any doubts they take the chance to demonstrate their most.. appreciated.. skills: on the the titletrack >urban ballroom< they send a massive..house-groove..to a trip, alongside with a swinging bassline, decent melodylines and some springy percussions, combining perfectly funkyness and deepness. >contact< and >wipp< on the flipside are convincing in the same versed way. the former slightly more dubby, the latter comes up with a little more speed. all in all forming an ep cast from the same mould, while the title >urban ballroom< says it all. homm & popoviciu are delivering a new housy shade for the labelsound, which suites highgrade perfectly

his this years 2nd album >heavy day< still heavily resonates in peoples ears, now that falko brocksieper already delivers an appropriate follow-up. on >fresh 727< brocksieper finds back to raw, sketchy arrangements, evolving their full energy just from deep, rolling basic grooves, as opposed to the close examination of each tiny sound and every dramaturgic peculiarity in the recent longplayers production. on the title track >fresh 727< noisy, maurizio-esque house chords encounter futuristic vocal messages, while edgy, classic drumbox-riffs rip up the dense atmosphere of the track again and again. a deep, marching groove and the freeminded combination of elements signalize special club moments from the very start. on the backside >request< turns out to be an equally organic, sizzling counterpart, which can promote its sustainable cheerfulness alone by its ongoing bouncy bassline, in a way that all accessory parts get dispensable - to the benefit of a well-balanced blend of rattling percussion, carved vocals and quirky atmo...s

likely ep is tims first release on tiefschwarzs souvenir label. lead track alike sounds like ivan smagghe jamming with richie hawtin in a warehouse rave in london, skirting a line between futuristic tech house and discerning electro. a live bassline holds down the groove as a trickling bleepy melody develops throughout the track. as more and more layers of elaborate sonic trickery are laid down, a driving snare jacks out the groove further before a series of effects laden breakdowns tighten the tension further and further. cowbells take the second phase of the track ever taughter before the groove emerges into a stabbing hook and pulsating synth noises that drive the dancefloor into blissed out oblivion. subtle vocals tease the ears in the background of the final strung out breakdown, never quite dominating the tune before the jacking bass and kick drop back in. ‘unlike shares a similar vibe for mixing live instruments with plug in madness. live sounding bassline and guitar lines open the track and roll out the groove before the main synth hook takes over. as the track rolls in and out of its breakdowns it lurches between reverb heavy, bleepy chaos and futuristic rhythms. think depeche mode writing an experimental instrumental on the moon in 2012 and youre halfway there. like many french artists these days tim lives and works in london and also collaborates with fellow frenchies ivan smagghe and dante eprom. he first caught the attention of vinyl sleuths with his excellent remix of db (8)s future now in 2004 and now runs his own label marketing music as well as pushing the boundaries of spacey electro flavoured tech house with his own solo material.

this project is a showcase of ians most recent club tracks and all appear in there original mixes. crank this, is a seriously heavy club tune. budapest, has a middle eastern vibes (hence the title) and has wobbly, wonky bass as well as a distinct break beat kick drum pattern. finally the much talked about everything & nothing, the title track of this ep sees ian going down a melodic & uplifting pryda influenced route.

motor citys new electronica talent joshua harrison presents with his strong debut release on psycho thrill recordings, four hot burnin as floor efficient slammin minimal tracks from detroit technos new school. this vinyl hits real house feet as well as techno heads and defines more like another tech-house biggie. ears, minds and hearts are opening for a fall of real electronic music

its all about housemusic its a spiritual thing! this statement from a former classic house recording fits perfectly to yves murasca and his attitude towards housemusic. his entire life had been constantly spinning around that uplifting housegroove from 120 to 130 beats per minute. although the munich based dj and producer is standing right at the beginning of his musical career he is already looking back at a number of well noticed projects. besides far more than 20 remixes only in the last two years for top artists like bob sinclar, barbara tucker, milk & sugar, jean claude ades or lee cabrera he became also a recommended radio dj with his own casa nostra radio show and due to the increasing demand on his club dj skills also more and more international bookings are taking place in the meantime.
