one more heavy hitter on credo, and this time we could even say two tracks that form an ep as strond as the so far most sold credo-release from 2007 - bullet in your heart. the name tells already some connection to australia and indeed the basic idea came up during alex tour down under in fall 2012 where he played three cities within three days and a total of 9h playtime for which he travelled 64h in total. sydney acid is the main track of the ep, no doubt and hard to describe. it is a pure, driven technotrack with a fierce, no blubby, but very powerful acid bassline aiming at riots on the dancefloor. melbourne dub tells exactly what the track is all about and by the way featuring the sound of the local traffic lights that made alex thinking about creating some tracks related to it.

we are the ones with the courage to stand up and express our ideas. so many heroes have sold out, moved on, and turned their back on the detroit underground. if the true believers are waiting on the calvary then i guess cryovac will have to do. this is our fight whether we like it or not. we are a few like minds, not the alphas, never the favorites. we are the other guys, the ones nobody bets on, the least likely to survive a business. we know what the score will bring us, but there is an appointment and we mean to keep it. heroes must define themselves and then redefine themselves. each day that moves forward brings opportunities to tweak creations into what the now means. kieth kemp endures the elements and ailments of an ever changing electronic world. he is an original hero with a smooth technique that reflects an instinctual nderstanding of sound and soul. kieth represents a talent and spirit that does not falter no matter how strange a circumstance can get. he follows his own path to relavence. i am proud to welcome kieth to the cryovac machine.

christopher rau has been impressing people since a while! here three tracks that impressed the junk yard connections crew a while ago on a mix tape, not knowing what it was, or who it was! finally they tracked down its origins and found out that it was unreleased tracks by christopher! now finally these tracks see the day light! inter alia, *the green bean*, which has some of that sexy swampy house vibe like theo parrish or stl can do. on the flip its *some song* with its more techier vibe, somehow with an atmosphere reminding of model 500s classic starlight. and last but not least the b2 track no chatter with its up beat house vibe. amazing tracks that are the first tracks on the label from outside the jyc crew. tracks that are here to stay on valuable wax. another cool junk yard connections release.

young belgian producer locked groove (aka tim van de meutter) cements an increasingly central role in the hotflush family fold with the release of the two part heritage ep. since his debut on the label, tim has propagated what he himself has termed 100% house and techno, combining elements of the big room, the deep and moody and straight up four-to-the-floor both into the space of a single track, and across the length of an ep. taking a marked step on from last years rooted and keep it simple eps, heritage pursues a joining of musical dots between and beyond classic house and techno, from the kerri chandler-esque house of *wear it well* through the epic landscaping of *lost* to *dream within a dream* blade runner beach party. in this collection, the young producer delivers two sets of three outstanding, genre-straddling tracks that further help to bolster hotflushs legacy as one of the most forward-thinking labels operating in 2013.

as the london & berlin based somethinksounds imprint approaches a tenth release since its inception in 2010 we have learnt that although you can never be too sure of what they are going to serve up next, you can be sure its going to be of the highest quality. whether it be unearthing exquisitely produced idm by lucky paul, future house sounds from rising stars such as eliphino and ossie (black orange juice) or straight up club bangers by some of the biggest hitters in the game (gadi mizrahi of wolf + lamb), this time they deliver what could be one of the most infectious vocal drops of 2012 on artifacts sensational double a-side the way it do/we trapped.

just when you thought you knew what you were going to get from flashmob they switch it up completely, stamping their mark of quality and proving their versatility as producers they turn in an old school acid house stomp. dark, rumbling bass, spoken female vocal, and complimentary 303 acid squelches make both the garage mix and panorama mix equally at home in a field around the m25 circa 88 as it does on the floor at dc10 in 2013. watch out. acid house is back!

profound techno with soul is what the heart of tim xavier is beating for. tim is not only our first choice when it comes to mastering with his company manmade mastering, but also because his second single on upon you records has hit the bulls eye.

nice price deal !!! every once in a while a particular record will land in our laps which we have very little information on but usually somebody will unearth its origins after a bit of homework and more often than not it turns out to be a relatively well-known producer operating under a new and secret pseudonym. what we are looking at here however, seems to be quite the enigma. one can only speculate as to who watkins & almadovar might be.

there has been much speculation about the significance of the mayan system of timekeeping. many researchers on the subject have verified that the mayan long count calendar, which is only one of several advanced timekeeping tools devised by the mayan people, comes to an end on december 21, 2012, with no real clear explanation as to what exactly that signifies. this musical offering is not meant to speculate on the meaning of this date. instead, it serves as a tribute to one of the most astronomically, mathematically and architecturally advanced civilizations in the history of planet earth. each track is a tribute to one of the many mayan spiritual sites known to date.

there it is, keinemusik number seventeen. we know what you are thinking. you think you know how it works. you think, those keinemusik fellas will again be doing their little rotation thing, one producer getting a record out after the other, then a workparty-joint venture at some point and then it starts all over again. au contraire! this seventeenth edition is breaking the known beautiful, perfectly curled cycle. just like that, so that no one gets bored. this record here is an appetizer for a collaboration-effort between rampa, &me and nomi, the new york based singer that provided the recent movement of flamboyant disco-queerness with its sexiest and catchiest hooks, teaming up with hercules & love affair and doing her own project jessica 6. side b will take care of everyone who is expecting a safe playing house-rehash of the afore mentioned acts and tenderly let a lashing snare slap every preconception out of sceptic faces.

wie der bootsmann auf der scholle sitzt the micronaut inmitten der tosenden klangfluten unserer zeit. mit versonnenem lächeln lauscht er dem rhythmischen murmeln, angelt hin und wieder einen akkord heraus, mischt ihn mit den bunten fantasiefrüchten seines kleinen eilands und kocht daraus sein ganz eigenes süppchen. diesmal serviert er uns einen durchweg lebensbejahenden hörgenuss namens what else, in dem sich männlicher und weiblicher gesang über entspanntem aber erbaulichem groove vereinen. im remix dazu orientiert sich mollono.bass am song-orientierten charakter des originals, bringt das ganze aber etwas mehr den punkt, an welchem der sound auf der tanzfläche optimal ist. die b-seite fischt dann in den gründen des friedfisch, und zieht zwei nie gehörte remixes zum gleichnamigen debütalbum von the micronaut aus der tiefe. da ist zum einen die einlullend-hypnotische dub techno nummer der lake people, die mairenke auf stehendem subbass anrichten. und zum anderen das perlende klangspiel und die sprudelnden, gebrochenen beats von map.aches version der rotfeder

wraetlic is a tense, at-times terrifying look into the realm of electronic music that is rarely touched by the likes of techno producers. to hear the uncompromising sounds on this record makes one wonder what else is in store for alex smoke, a challenging album but truly a gem in its expansiveness. (mitch strashnov – urb)

this is the second vinyl in jerome sydenhams 3 part animal social club vinyl series. what you hear is not really the rainforest, or the wilderness. dont let yourears and eyes fool you. the primal edge, that instinctdriven music, raw and inviting, signals another meeting of the pack. and every time the wild ones get together, the quality of the sound is unmistakable. breathe, dance, listen, drink your fill, take it all in: this is an environment where there are no inhibitions and spontaneity is everywhere, in everything. a place where house and techno are the heartbeat. this is the primal universe of the animal social club.

what if time does not matter? welcome to the world of jonas saalbach, where nothing is solid but the rhythm of the base. we are drifting between synthwaves and nested melancholic melodies, between hazy vibes and spare used dark vocals and we call it >nika yumi<. this one is a brilliant number from a producer-youngstar, which strandet in berlin with a big smile and many dreams in the backage. so here we go with his first release on einmusika recordings. >next< - the second track on the ep, is an exotic odyssey in times of vocal- and deephouse, because this number is technoid, minimal and unimagined. >cave< can flip a good party into a great one in the space of six glorious minutes. the bendy baseline is catching everybody and the track is full of cosmic synths. and after this trip you surely need a bottle of water and a melody which picks up this feeling underlined with dreamy synth motifs and a kind of woozy bleeps. okay. so where we are? what time it is? whatever you can repeat everything.

reissue of selected tracks from the *reflection* lp by walt j, originally released on dow records in 1997. this is the fourth and final release on the walt j series on fit, created revisit the back catalog of this very talented producer.

over the last year i have traveled to canada frequently for gigs and got to know the small but healthy electronic music scene there. cities like montreal, vancouver and toronto have brought forth many established artists over the past few years, such as egyptrixx, azari & iii, basic soul unit, jacques greene, lunice and sixtoo, but 2012 has seen a new breed of no-nonsense house and techno producers come up via labels like turbo recordings and naked lunch. this *dovercourt ep* features three very talented producers: kevin mcphee, nautiluss and gingy. their tracks are a dedication to their hometown of toronto. being removed from the house/techno epicentres of berlin and london, these three are much less interested in what is fashionable or trendy, and more in bringing us straight to the point, no frails jacking house music. i have been playing these three extensively in my dj sets, and i hope you will too. so out to toronto, this one is for you! enjoy. martyn

doubleheart, the collaborative project of two of scotlands longest serving creative individuals in electronic music - jd twitch (optimo espacio) and neil landstrumm. taking its name from title song *roots* - a sub heavy, tension building track that re-imagines jamaican dub poet michael smiths original from the seminal 1982 album ‘mi cyaan believe it - the ep as a whole works as an analogue exploration into the rawer side of dance music. working together allows these veteran producers to fuse their individual styles and musical sensibilities, combining landstrumms raw aesthetic and mastery of hardware manipulation with twitchs unrivalled knowledge of what makes a dancefloor tick. spawning from the depths of their imaginations and machines are 4 club-ready tracks brimming with anticipation and menace. although taking its inspiration from 80s electro and 90s acid & rave, the final result is far from a throwback to a halcyon, bygone era. instead, they have managed to carve out a distinctive sound the bleeps and bangs its way firmly into 2013.

the neneh cherry & the thing collab-album receives a first-class remix treatment.

today we bring you the return of atelewo (osunlade & the pasta boys) with a classic follow up to the already well known label staple new day. this time we move a little further with a more percussive, brass driven soul song about what else but love. infinity proves to continue with solid production and sound of the teams collaborative efforts. sendai is a simple mood based groove honoring and acknowledging the loss in the tsunami of 2011. a simple gesture of remembrance this one adapts a local newscaster explaining the devastation and sorrow. as always we here at yoruba hope that this new release not only starts the new cycle of 2013 off well, but that it brings forth a new direction. enjoy!

toby tobias joins the d.o.g crew for release no. 29 and fits like the proverbial glove with an incredible ep which truly lives up to its name.its probably fair to say that toby is one of the unsung heroes of the uk scene having played a pivotal part in developing the underground disco scene of the late noughties. his late night audio parties alongside releases on rekids, lets play house, nang and quintessentials speak volumes as to the mans skills and fastidious nature and here he delivers what wed be so bold as to say his best work yet with the pathfinder ep.
