for their 3rd release well rounded bring you the imaginative and playful funky-influenced house sound of hackman. this ep is packed with punchy & polished productions and adventurous arrangements. we have curated 3 tracks that we feel demonstrate the breadth and potential of this exciting young producer based in leeds, england. on the a bodies is an ecstatic piano-driven belter with immediate appeal. the 4/4 drums drive hard, funked up with supple bass flexations, then punctuated with classic chords and catchy vocal cut-ups. what sounds simple here is carefully considered. a brilliantly constructed, exciting and peak-time melodic banger! on the flip surround leads the listener into more tropical terrain

its back, its great, its acid, its deep, its house, its time! after a little break the label its is back with a fine release of deep acid house by the dj artist rvds. 3 tracks (two with british vocals) full of soul, acid and love, inspired by the detroit classics like mr.fingers, omar s, etc.. all house heads are in for a treat. listen, dance or take it as a dj tool? - the tracks goes into one another - in this time you can dance, talk to people, go to the toilet, take what you need and go back to the turntables!

after a short break, enterbt records is back on track, and what a return it is. er 0003 features three tracks by a true swiss mainstay: shaka. the fourth track is remix of the title track by titonton duvanté, himself not a new face to the electronic music scene, either.

markantonios analytic trail label has been instrumental in creating what is now recognized as the neapolitan techno sound. the labels inventive approach is the key to their success. marrying raw basic elements with fun-loving party vibes, the label is a destination for djs wanting a big-room sound. previous releases have featured artists including rino cerrone, valentino kanzyani and joseph capriati.

we kick the package off we have a remix from the mighty radio slave, and he certainly doesnt disappoint. with live keys from tom gandey of cagedbaby fame, he creates an awesome deep house rework, beautiful keys, rising synths and deep piano chords all make it feel like summer is already here.  jesse rose returns turns in a deep and dirty jackin house version, with bumpin bass, heavy swung drums and pitched down vocals, this is sure to tear after hours floors apart.  the rebirth of rising has started, and we cant wait to show what we have coming for you next

a 14 minutes epic track, extatic keyboards, melancholic strings & raw beats…call it house, techno or what you want, this is an outstanding soulful piece of music written by the electronic chameleon ripperton. from analog to analog, dedicated to wax lovers.

deepchild dares to fire out almost a dozen of new tracks after his >backroom< debut on trapez. the title track >fire< pulls all strings, this is what we have been waiting for, deep techno with enough passion to drown every dance floor in sweat and tears. >fire< combines the miami bass with the new york house with the new school of techno in a vibrant mix.

>esta si esta no< by the glimmers featuring baby g. is a cover version of one of the biggest euro rave anthems from the early nineties originally written and performed by spanish superstar dj chimo bayo. beautiful baby g (from lsb fame on eskimo recordings) took the vocals for her part whilst half of the glimmers house band disko drunkards are playing the instruments on this quite original adaptation. this release features three remixes. glimmers favorite german fella daniel haaksman (from berlin based man recordings) goes favella funk style with a very catchy sax hook and the amazing in flagranti is doing with the track what they can do best, making it very synthy disco sexy.. they deliver a vocal and an instrumental version.

big with: anthony collins, daniele papini, timo garcia, kaiserdisco, remerc, cristian varela, karotte, acquaviva, ante perry,... nicole moudaber, selected by cox & digweed for a guest mix in 2008 & 2009, and hand picked by carl for a slot next to him in space in 2009, the big boys have all got their ears pricked for what will come next. her releases have appeared on viva music, plastic city, arearemote, intacto, yellow tail .... she has remixed gorge (8bit) and adam sheridan among others. for the new ep on yellow tail she got together with smokin jo, her older production state of mind, was championed on radio 1 and released on distrakt records.

lost my dog s miami sampler contains a taste of what you can expect from lmd over the next few months with four corking tracks from giom, bleep district, yse pres. frank h carter iii and roland nights (vernon & dacosta remix). dj support from: ashley beedle / mark farina / halo / dj heather / miguel migs / lil mark / dj mes / swirl people & more..

believe it or not - summer has finally come. so what could be nicer than some audio delicatessen, produced to become the perfect companions for this season? sun shining in your face, groove rolling through your hips: that must have been andreas krügers vision of the upcoming months. so how come the calender and the leaves on the street are presenting us with a completly different truth? it seems like der dritte raum wants to shed some light onto these endless weeks of cold and darkness - and really, sunny thoughts and warm feelings find their way into our hearts and minds

the loop:
this nice, funky, underground and late night beat eddie put down represents his origins of funky detroit house fillers … also, columbia style vox sample is a killer on the floor for the best djs with skills ...
let my nuts hang:
eddie fowlkes should change his last name to funky … the whole track is letting his nuts hang for 24 years of putting out release! the groove is out cold, plus what eddie is saying in the track is really true!

blimey! we thought we had fallen into a wormhole and woken up in 92! 2020 soundsystems enduring lp favourite and one of the live shows highlights gets put through the downtown ny meat-grinder by tbd. brought on board as prospective remixers after last years immense all ears distributed >what is this< the tbd duo have taken this one on a three-day bender across the big apple! sleep deprived and pounded into submission by unrelenting kick drums and dustbin lid percussion, not to mention enough growling synth action to satisfy the hungriest of addled brains, the two mixes barely made it back home to leeds alive! you have been warned!

following up his s soup plate with two slick dubby techno trax and a solid remix from eamonn doyle, captain baiyon is ready to kick your ass again, banzai! evening glow of a river brings a dreamlike quality to any clubspace. pushing the shuffle under a spectral vocal to conjour the mood of a haunted skyscraper. its a masterful synthesis of what could be called a traditional techno sound (the one d1 made a tradition of) and an undefinable lucid ambience. lupe carries on the mood onward in a deceptively gentle style, this one gets loud! a solid dub groove that keeps the pace until the intermittent breakdowns where it rips the sky open with a terrorising bubble synth growing like a raging blob monster to the size of a small moon. somehow eamonn doyle manages to tame the beast in his remix. it purrs along beautifully under his signature tamborines and jump strings and ends proceedings in a lush deep style. unmissable for anyone who enjoyed winter sun or come down on the music.

we have never done a project like this before where the artists choose all the remixers themselves. but for the crazy italoboyz album >bla bla bla< we found ourselves not really knowing what to do. so instead of forcing our own ideas for remixers we went back to the source and let the artists run wild on the a&r. marco and fede commissioned all the remixers themselves. the producers they chose are a very diverse bunch and the vinyl 12inch takes a sampling of the best material from two very big underground names. on the a-side das kraus duo turn it a super jackin yet also very haunting rendition of >oh mio dio.< it sounds like pitched up chicago house meets demon days. on the b-side old school master dandy jack turns in one of the oddest records ever on mothership with some unusual sound design, voices and semi-dischordant note runs. super weird for the super weird! whatever you think of this odd lot no one can deny these remixes definitely carry the indistinguishable mark of that ever so quirky duo, the italoboyz

what a beautiful noise! with his second ep for cocoon recordings, antoine husson aka dj djedi continues where he had stopped with his >the devils star<-ep in 2009. the experience of the paris-born producer, who has worked for renowned labels such as f comm, communique, elp medien and paul nazcas label scandium!

alex under is the man behind dolly la parton and what he delivers is just pure dancemania: original, raw and groovy, both tracks included in this release are pure slices of music madness. its just a thing blends jazz improvisation with techno euphoria while cornbread, fish & collard greens may be the deepest, blackest and funkiest dance track of 2010, a ritual of rhythm invention and futuristic manipulation

very limited one sided 12 inch release from ramp recordings. clouds 2008 clockwork garage masterpiece gets re-worked by matthew herberts accidental sigee dave aju. what more do you need to know?

these two guys need no introduction we re sure.. between them the music these guys put out there, is some of the finest house beats around.. now combined the production level on this beauty takes things to another level.. swinging hooks, driving beats & acid 303 lines. a perfect blend of prog / tech & house.. call it what you will.. this simply rocks! alex & filip takes things deeper and more twised , while steve haines goes down the more melodic route. two great remixes to top of the release.

supported by: brothers vibe, federico molinari, nekes, ray okpara, fimo ... we are happy to present on our first release for this year a new diaphan family member and one of the most up and coming young artists from athens. v.sexions releases on labels like safari, catwash, time has changed and many others shows that the youngstar from the greek capital knows exactly how to rock the crowd with his sound. pumping house music, thats it! and thats what he shows us on that ep with >do your head< and >you see<. however, >kadon< on the flip is a more deeper track wich is also the template for the >brothers vibes remix< who inspired and biased so many artists from the whole house scene with his amazing releases on his own imprints mixx records, jersey underground and som underground

mumbai science... sounds boring, right? dont worry, we are not talking about obsessed white-suit-scientists but about a duo of musicproducers working their way up the musicgame. after having worked on different projects in the past, they now join forces in what might be one of the freshest sounds you will hear this spring. they are debuting on lektroluv records with a three-track-ep including mumbai science originals woof, 3200 and coconuts: eastern vocals, southern bongos, western flows and northern coolness, that about sums it up. mumbai science will be all over the place in the next few months, so there will be plenty of oportunities too see and hear what the fuzz is all about!
if techno, kuduro and dirty house had a threesome, mumbai science would be the result.

finally, the long wait is over! we are proud to present the first solo effort by leviste and its been worth the wait. three ultra varied tracks starting with the driving drums and bassline of >senioritis<. >better get used to it< shows off levistes melodic abilities with a beautiful melancholic epic. these first two songs really show what an important role leviste has played in the duos productions over the years. >change the station< rounds things out with a bit of modular synth experimentation over a jacking rhythm track.

theres something brewing down at dumb-unit and this time its in the venomous form of a cobra sun. legend has it that the cobra sun is a sun so fierce that a man can only face it at the crack of dawn. only at this point can one survive its monstrous wrath. whatever the truth may be, what is certain is that a new legend arises with pheroxs moving interpretation. a massive journey full of dynamism and extremes the cobra sun is yet another notch to be carved into dumb-units sonic bed post.

blind minded lives in london and is famous for his live appearances and has his third release with trapez ltd with >mr propre<. his first two release on trapez ltd was supported heavily and where charted by the italoboyz so weare looking forward to his follow up. >mr. propre< is the return of what used to be of the detroit sound blended with modern spontaneous changes in mood and crossovers which will put a smile on your face. >mr. propre< is the most technoid of all three tracks, whereas >jazz 2 me< is a bassline monster, with vocalquotes about jazz music stating it as >a state of life<, >something that you live!<. altogether a sexy cool groover! >the melting freak< is the most deep of all three tracks. here you can hear blind minded playing his analogue instruments (also a real 808 drum machine) being funky and cool rather than going for cheap thrills.

resident nick höppner returns with his third release for ostgut ton. after last years >makeover< come three new detailed excursions, plus a remix by lee jones. almost entirely constructed from field recordings taken within the walls of berghain, >brush me down< is a raw and textural jam, uncontrived and jostling with energy. jittery, shuffling and shaking, höppners love for funky, off-kilter percussion shines through as he pieces together a mysterious audio puzzle of found atmospherics, club nights and concerts otherwise committed only to memory yet now preserved and recycled. it also is a hint at what is to be expected from ostgut tons 5 years anniversary compilation this autumn.

kontra-musik continues its 10inch remix series. this turn is for ben klock and oni ayhun to get busy and rework tracks from the jason fines future thought album. ben klock now finalizes (may we call it the kontra-musik berghain sessions after shed and dettmann remixes) with a stomping, chicago-esque modern dancefloor cut. by adding vocals but keeping jasons original chords, there is some serious anthem warning to this one. on flip there is some magic! oni ayhun leaves us with a stunning and experimental tech electro kraut excursion. think yello magic orchestra jamming on beats provided by morris day and the time... wooow what a track!! another great piece in the carefully builded kontra musik catalogue! check

rawtekk is back on citrus with 2 titty twisting productions thatll make you look sour to face for a loooong while! this time he hooks up with buddy mofi whos still new comer in the game. but is showing his colours here! snowfall is a heavy roller with influences from the oldskool techsteppin era and of course the heavy neurofunk of today! rawtekk is back to show 2010 what hes capable of! flip it over for repulsion a heavy eclectic dnb track thatll mash up dancefloors for sure! this dj friendly peaktime pit shredder is the one that ll people be talking about!

the new slidebar ep is here, containing massive remixes by si begg, patrick pulsinger, dave tarrida and paul birken - what a great package! first 500 copies are pressed in white vinyl – so better be fast!

the glory days of speicher resound in our ears once again - its time for techno to take a front row seat in the rave cathedral. destination: future unknown. this is what the disco kids will certainly scream for as they now start to yearn for darkness in their dance. the perfect storm - a cold fusion of peak roar techno that is 100% classic speicher

supported by adam beyer, sebastian mullaert aka minilogue, dave seaman, hot chip, max cooper, secret cinema, dubfire, okain, piemont! kaiserdisco are floating on a wave of success, storming the charts like no other! seductive percussive tracks that always succeed in formulating a real musical theme that is the essence of what makes their tracks attractive for so many of us

the first release on mean for the year 2010 will see cesare vs disorder returning on his home imprint to collaborate with rainer in the battle for mouths ep, in what will be the ninth instalment of this underground label

this man cant currently be stopped. following his releases through the 2nd season 2009 (>marvin” on compost, >smaul 06< & >smaul 07<) in january 2010 acid paulis >riverboat tour< came out. now, it seems he opens this years summer season with these two psychedelic thrilling tracks. even though he had been touring a lot with the notwist last year, acid pauli was pretty often an invited, musically refreshing guest in berlins minimal techno (what ever) scene. den mahlstrom rauf leaves no doubts about. great build up he does by keeping tension over five minutes to unlash finally the madness charge with a levitating reverse-ducking-compressed melody. den mahlstrom runter (a play on words of travelling on a boat and getting milled…) seems to be the return from the trip he gives on side a. it is the same track reworked. his musical drama goes faster but deeper under the cortex – but >how lucky a fate< deliverance comes at right time taking the track over to a known housy and deep realm.

following up on their very well received previous release on roots, ortin cam and charles bells are now consolidating their position with black, episode 6 of what is rapidly becoming one of belgiums premier techno imprints. three different tracks, three showcases of what techno can be in 2010.
black is no holds barred, banging darkness, referring back to the funky, industrial sound many of us still feel techno is all about.
saga is engineered to offer dj s the mother of all breaks, building up to a drop to match. this animal guarantees complete devastation, mercifully releasing the crowd s energy after minutes of anticipation. pyramid explores a slightly different realm of the genre, making use of dubby effects, voices mangled beyond recognition and a deep, stomping repetitiveness that will pummel listeners and dancers alike into a state of hypnotic detachment.

we welcome this fantastic producer on trapez with this piece of music which is quite different from most of what we get today. the title track >ghosts< feels like as if klaus nomi and kraftwerk were performing together... something we would have loved to have seen but which never happened. this track is not for the people who love it safe but for the adventurous and the wicked. voices like sirens striking with high pitched tongues being counteracted by basslines with a surface that can only be described as rough as chunks of splintered steel. a brilliant stop and go feeling shows that christian martin is the master on the steering wheel when it comes to controlling the movement.

1973 funk / soul gem!! includes the amazing i dont know what it is, but it sure is funky!!

in order to the re-release of the classic deusexmachina exp:001 re-release the enzyme crew decided to offer us this special enzyme release: deusexmachina exp:001.5!

slammin vinyl which is a true must have for each & every hardcore lover worldwide, have it large!

dj mika is on a roll with his straight up no nonsense techno bangers. techno with a funky drive and bassline, this is what we need. labelboss mika invited two big artists to back him up for this release. roman zawodny comes with a great techno track full of big noises, a catchy synth and the bass fitting perfect in there. tadox on the flip is the 2nd guest to step up and he also delivers in style. another great 4 track ep on the quality label innervate!

must have 1989 classic!!

what better way to start 2010 then with a brand new 10 inch of the highest caliber talents the netherlands has seen to date! after 2562 & martyn it will be up to evs & tmsv to represent the dutch on the dubstep tip!
evs hails from rotterdam.. the subway capital of holland.. by staying unaffected by the jump up or dancefloor style dubstep has adopted in the past few years it shows that evs has concocted his very own style.. a mixture of idm, trip hop and even dnb perfectly rolled into 1 production.. dt08.
the flip holds utrecht talent tmsv. a guy who you will hear alot more about. his dmz infused sound is one to watch for the future as he allready has gained the support of people like distance & mala... check subconscious brain for when you want to transport yourself back to the past when dubstep just raised its head!

its seems that underground quality are on a mission to bring us the deepest sounds around and this twelve from new name tazz makes no exception. acid love sounds exactly what youd hope it would sound like, warm 303s on top of old school house piano sounds. round this off with the simple yet effective underground 11 and a remix from dj jus-ed and you are on to a winner

this is zhenya aka proxy. i am proud to present my brand new and very own label mako records. i was thinking about this idea for more than 3 years, about the possibilities, about a mission, general genre and other stuff, blah blah blah... actually, i hate all this press release shit...
so the first release is coming. its by a very promising producer called marseille. i know him for a long time and he is a good friend of mine. marseille already had experience in making cool productions, under which great remixes on raven and who are you...
and now it is his time. time to show everybody what the true russian machine is.
enjoy it or you will be killed by kgb, hahaha
mako records is born... and we are ready to invade!
zhenya proxy

kyle geiger knows his techno. thats what becomes clear when listening to his brand new wrong turn ep. mb elektronics is still going strong!

here we roll after a long pause back to musik krause. toting three nuggets brought to you with care which are somewhere between gentle hardcore with a weakness for the horns, and a warm coolness that finds its place without the chocolate cake. whoever thinks that what i am doing here is again on a peppermint accordion ditty got it twisted. dark, complex and almost avant gard-ish hearty.

supported by miss kittin, chloé, dubfire, tobi neumann, phonique, reboot, kiki, piemont, bukaddor & fishbeck, gregor tresher kaiserdisco, markus kavka, deepchild, igor tchkotoua (pig and dan), tom wax, mihalis safras, dan curtin, orde meikle, blind minded, patrick pulsinger, gurtz!! famous for his skills of cutting up whole disney cartoons and converting them into a sparkling groovy beat, also >reshef< has that unbelievable funkiness combined with a freak out madness that has helped butch to rock the biggest dance floors around. introducing his famous rain drops and flutes butch has acquired a toolbox of sounds that he delicately layers and enhances. building up a subtle tension and keeping it low key all through the track, his breakdowns are always what one is looking for. on the flipside of the record we find an überfunky remix by his close friend amir.

the bold and futuristic year of 2010 sees the release of >werkschau<, an unmixed compilation that gathers together a hand picked selection of the producers favourite cuts. the music stands for all that he loves, and what he loves he puts on show! summing up the landsky sound, and looking back over the years one cant help but feel a deep underlying quality emanate from the music. like subtle, mature flavours running through a well-prepared banquet. this special ep, capturing three choice tracks from those on offer on the compilaiton, includes some of our favourite landsky material, re-visited. firstly the seminal >1000 miles< is re-interpreted and brought up-to date, with landskys >2000 miles<. a strong driving powerhouse of reduced acid signals and hypnotic synth phrases, its the sound of martin landsky, future, present and past. a real deep running story of a track, >naked< is rich with thick bass and phasing, tripping chords, running percussion and growing tension that never ends. fitting to any occassion, the track was originally released on landskys own intim label and sounds as fresh now as the day it was released. tying things up the taught, tense and grooving tones of >monitor one< sail through. this futuristic house cut revolves around a staccato bass hook that drips with funk, echoing of landskys dj history that began before house was ever invented!
