originally heard on a c90 mixtape from the mid 90s, unearthed 15 years later, recorded from a demo played on the andy kershaw show on radio 1 in 1996! what followed was an epic quest to find the artist and the original masters and all roads led to west london, summer 2010............. musa k hails from sierra leone but is now based in west london and his tracks paint a landscape of brutality and horror on the guinea coast, set to a soundtrack that is pure funk. these two remarkable previously unreleased tracks fuse and deconstruct, hip hop, afrobeat, techno, p-funk and dub. a truly unique voice and lyrical style musa fits no stereotype. an edition of 200, 12inch black vinyl remastered from original mastertapes.

well... this is a fine record with wicked remixes

scorching late 70s disco / funk here from new york disco machine from 78 and rare gems odyssey from 1977

zepp001 returns to delusions for our first release of 2011 and what a way to start the new year! the seattle based disco obsessive has been holed up in his recently completed studio in delphia (a city located on antarcticas southern shore) and its easy to hear the influence this strange and otherworldly place has had on the two original tracks here on this release

so what is the sound of progressive disco? well it captures the insane rhythm and the unforgiving driving beat that is instantly found in the funk of the early seventies but real disco music also had a formula that would guarantee the hottest djs success if played at the right time. that formula was a blend of up-tempo rhythm sections laden with south american percussion mixed with soulful vocals and orchestral strings - a symphony of sex, lust and love. we change the formula and focus on the rock, electronic and dub elements - slower, sleazy and fun.

the first release for consequence and joe sevens new alias they live is on dbridge & instra:mentals autonomic label. creeping in with a slightly haunting melody and sparse drums, >pure palms< starts off with little indication of where the track might lead, it feels as though it could go in any direction. as it slowly builds, the warmth and weight û and deep-set rhythms û that consequence is known for begin settling, and open up to an evocative, widescreen track of immense beauty.

small backstock on this jazzy deephouse beauty by adny aka alexi deloano, released 1999 on californian earthtones imprint.

this is pure underground house music with detroit and chicago flavours!! tip !

one would be curious as to what a track such as this one would sound like. images and visuals floating through your head as you press play, the airy, angelic pad intro induces you into a trance-like state before soothing piano lines and a pitched-up vocal reminiscent of the early hardcore era takes you away. as the drums come in with a half-time feel, it is easy to imagine japanese taiko drummers playing their part. once the break takes hold, a short span of melodic heaven uplifts before the drums take control again.

new fresh vinyl only release from vidd based in stockholm - related to farden records. subliminal sounds by the italian marco shuttle who delivers an brilliant executed slice of dark basement techno. on the a-side a track that will creates a stir on the floor and that kills it on prime time with its hypnotic female vocal hookline. one of those tracks that stands out and gets people to the dj and ask what that track was that he just played! the b-side is a dark epic track with a phat metallic detroit-ish basslines and a frantic spaced out athmosphere... perfect material for a deep dark basement session. limited pressing of 300 copies.

the subdivision return home to paradise lost with the open your eyes ep: epic vibes, hypnotic bass work, and complex programming manifest themselves as what might be considered their best work to date, and surely a production which defines their unique style for building cinematic tracks of epic proportions. the structure is trademark tsd: a beautifully drawn-out breakdown compliments the progressively building tension, leading to a thunderous climax toward the end. this tune is more of a journey than simply a dj tool (although its a treat to mix with), and djs such as bunzer0, djunya, 501 and claw have used it to devastating effect in the mix.

the second release of till krüger contains two epic tracks. >the green< a classic dance floor track in the tradition of detroit techno yet fresh in the unique till krüger style. >last track< is composed as a typical last track on the floor - moody, melancholic and very long. cocoon recordings licensed till krügers first ep >wrong shirt< for sven väths compilation >sound of the eleventh season<, released in november 2010. we are excited to see, what will happen to his new tracks!

some of you outhere has might already heard from the two young talented guys from london named home park. sam fussell and rob glassett with their next record after releases for labels like bliq, consisting of two older tunes on the a side (incl. what a day) and two new tunes on the b side.

heres the next installment of our edit series. although is it an edit - can you spot the samples and who or who actually did it (if indeed it is an edit) ? limited edition run of 500 copies on clear vinyl.

der wahnsinn hat einen namen - monkey safari! die neusten streiche sind die inbegriffe fuer spassig ausgelassenes partytreiben und nenen sich bamboolica und run run run. natuerlich duerfen hanne & lore auf dieser party auch nicht fehlen

the emerging talent of subb-an is ushered into the culprit fold for the labels eleventh release. an extended member of the culprit clan in spirit and through his associations with hot natured and matt tolfreys leftroom, the young lad from birmingham clearly shares, much like his uk brother-in-arms jamie jones, culprits quintessential moody funk-infused sensibility. his debut ep for culprit, >what i do< is a statement of intent for a man with a definite interest in exploring the soulful and playful edges of house and techno. >what i do< has been slaying discerning dancefloors for months, blending strong chicago house roots with the polished warmth that la-based culprit has come to embody, but never forgetting darker clubbier atmospheric

>mr nice< features snippets of howard marks which are interlaced with clattering breakbeats and booming sub bass. while we are sure howard would approve of a late night after party session, for many this will be the soundtrack to what happens before they leave the club! label boss steppa and his co-producer kitcha provide an excellent aa side which harks back to the classic formation records era. splicing in cheeky samples lifted from anthems of old and twisting them into something brand new, this one is just as fearsome on the dancefloor.

the unsung has struck again. the mystery of that guy who hides himself under many sheets of pseudonyms like the zohar or ibrahim might be relevant or not, it is not the point. what is important is that his music is good as hell! exploring the inner workings of afro-americans dance music history, from sketchy blues and jazz to disco, hip hop and the toughest techno, his music is a proposition of what house music is or should be.

tevo howard (rush hour, beautiful granville) macht aus dem klassischen house-sound seiner heimatstadt chicago etwas neues und aufregendes. seine tracks basieren auf analogen old-school-beats. was tevo howard indes von der retro-fraktion abhebt, ist sein sinn für melodien und basslines. nun präsentiert dieser unglaublich talentierte newcomer seine ersten vier tracks für permanent vacation.

2010 repress ! paul ritch and his quartz music label return with a very special treat! the first release on quartz was pauls own >split ep<. the response to the music on this ep was incredible. not only from specialists, but also from the public. how do you improve on the package? well, draft in one of the biggest names in world of techno to not only provide a remix, but take the two biggest tracks from the release, combine them, and remix the mutant off-spring. indeed! this is just what dubfire has done. taking >walk the line< and >split<, melting them together, and then reworking them to provide what will, from now, and forever more, be known as.... the >split the line - dubfire mega remix.< 2008 proved to be a wonderful year for dubfire. his releases and remixes filled the top spots in many end of year charts. no more than they deserved. his >dios< & >diablo< tracks alongside oiiver huntemann were instant smashes, and his remixes took him to a whole new level. radio slaves >grindhouse<, minologues >jamaica<, gregor treshers >a thousand nights< & booka shades >charlotte< all received the dubfire treatment, and all, went on to be smash hits. 2009 is set to be even bigger and better for everyone involved in this e.p.. is that possible? just watch this space!

recently home to riley reinhold productions, the label started years ago with cosmic sandwich productions, weird and disco induced, mutant disco and now is on its way to settle with deeper and soulful house. marcus sur seems to be just the right choice at the right time.

ifm is the project of the unstoppable marcello napoletano and franceso schito and is dedicated to their friend ilario corsano, who passed away. marcello napoletano needs no further introduction - like no one else he made his name with an old school inspired house sound. and this new ifm release is another fine example of this: drummachines, analog synths and the sound aesthetics of the early house days is what the >journey through the sound ep< is all about. true house music

the monkeys & what what records are back with a new release! saturday night fish is a catchy big band house track inspired by 50s style rocknroll & swing music. the second track, zumbador, is every bit as dancefloor compatible as saturday night fish. its more with a latin summer feeling therefor with a massive techy pace.

dimitri kneppers (1967) music career reads like an encyclopedia. a house encyclopedia. after 23 years of spinning records you could call this dj a true veteran. known for his enormous sensitivity, true feeling and mixing skills he gives you the sense you are the voyeur of an intimate act between two lovers. the music and the man. but nobody ever felt and looked so comfortable behind the decks as dj dimitri, for he brings the crowd at ease like don juan would do with women. when ecstasy is no longer just a word, but a true magical moment as the crowd, the surroundings and the music all come together in one hypnotizing state of happiness. this man knows -or should we say feels- what he is doing, not only behind the decks but also when producing. in september 2007 dimitri said goodbye to his headphones to work on a farm with mentally handicapped people. fortunately for his fans the break wasnt premanent in the middle of last year he installed a studio in his home, then this past june he returned to the decks - now he makes his planet e debut with a stunning track already tearing up dancefloors. included is the first of two remixes by carl craig. a second ep with remixes by orlando voorn and carl craig will appear in early 2011

known as one third of the notorious wetyourself crew, throwing parties and djing every sunday night at fabric in london, jacob has been releasing music since 2005 on different labels and under various guises.as a dj he is known for his fast mixing style of stripped down house and bouncy techno, which has made him a favorite in london and on the international underground dance scene, playing gigs all over europe and the world on a regular basis. the end of oct 2010 sees his debut release on the newly-formed wys! recordings with a very limited run of vinyl... do what you want by jacob husley is an upbeat rolling feel good record that has become become a steady ingredient of the sunday night wys! mix. featuring vocals from husley himself, the track is timeless and positive. the rather huge, driving bass line perhaps shows what an effect his 8 years living in london has had on him and also maybe his not-so-secret past as a junglist? all-round danish house legend, mathias mesteno, has created a late night deep builder that drives and drives..the result is detailed and tough! keeping jacob s big bassline, he has created his own feeling around the groove with plenty of atmospheric percussion. barcelona man-of-the-moment garnica from galaktika recs, has created a fantastic peak time groovy dub edit that will have people losing themselves on the dancefloor. watch out for more releases from wys! coming soon, next up is cormac s cold remixed by miss kittin and chris liebing!

after the huge success of pfirters >the dub track< and the still hot >lucky numbers< ep by kyle geiger & jamie bissmire, its time for the next smashin release on driving forces recordings. nobody less than uks living techno legends ben long & jamie bissmire aka space djz, teamed up again to deliver 4 outstanding and fresh tunes. the imaginary spectrum ep represents the new sound of the space djz and perfectly fits to what driving forces recordings stands for: state of the art techno for the peaktimes!

austrian musican martin brunner aka madney moon scores with two refreshing tracks. with a wonderful catchy melody, the first track >is it hot< sounds quite imposing. patrick kunkel (coccon recordings) does a very nice remix and straightens the framework. the second original mix >is it what< is a powerful contemporary techno track with a dark concise vocal. its therefore no wonder that rocco caine does his typical deep interpretation of that track. the remix sounds monstrous and gives your spoilt feet all they want and love on the techfloor.

new york, chicago, detroit? nop, boring shizzle!! just try miami!! sun, butts, flamingos and music! only an idiot can think this way! the bar is for sure the answer to the question: what is the most important part of the house? so what is more obvious than crowning a house-track with a vocal by the person who enhances life to the bar and to the party as well as the dj? luna city express wants to build a monument for the ones bearing this responsible task and say thank you, together with enliven deep acoustics. they want to pay homage to the person every visitors welfare depends on! so just imagine the bartender not only leverages your drinkable luck but also sings for you! not only sing, just utterly make the party to an unforgettable experience which makes the dancefloor to a trivial idea. everybody who is pleasured by this record is forced by associations which will make her or him hugging the person behind the bar!!

after several releases on mathematics as contra communem opinionem, cco presents his latest release on the promising new label lux rec. with his impressive ep the secret life of a transistor bassline cco proves us once again his ability to space out and rock hard at the same time. what more do you need? this journey starts off in the sewers of a miserable city on the western hemisphere and takes us higher until we freely float in space. as we move at the speed of light but with no perception of time, we eventually land on planet venus. this is where jack inserts his pleasure plug into the acid machine and sets off a dirty romp. in our quest for the secrets of life, we thereafter push boundaries further and explore even far away galaxies. always bearing in mind the infinity of time and space.

the first and most important of the four food groups is flapjacks. a great example of this is in bryan jones flapjackin jam low flow. the beats are as thick with butter milk and the bass is fluffy and melts in your ears. the second food group and a perfect complement to the first is syrup. czech republics arco gives us a sugery delight entitled first time, which can be poured or spread over just about everything from toast and flapjacks to spaghetti noodles. this tune has a nice and deep brown maple sound that like syrupy goodness, sweetens up every mix. the third basic food group is eggs, everyones favorite baby animal embryo treat. melbourne, australias house mopper d-t3ch, plucked the perfect egg from his prized chicken with his spoken word groove give & take. in this smooth bumpin scenario, the chicken gives the egg, and d-t3ch takes it and whips it up into a wonder house omelet. the last but certainly not the least of the 4 basic food groups is the bacon. bacon just makes everything better. oregons forrest avery & derty d definitely take the bacon with their super fried, crispy, salty smash hit the perfect beat. this tune does to a club what bacon does to your heart…it clogs dance floors
