matlocks finest rhythm plate resurface brandishing a new label in pressed for time, and what better way to inaugurate it than revisiting one of their key tracks. released back in 2002 on the mantis label run by atjazz, >lean part 2< was a wonderfully sleazy slab of deepness notable for the lascivious vocal hook that hung slinkily over the production throughout. it still sounds superb some 13 years on and is backed with an unreleased version that was done in the same period, along with deliciously freaky new >leaner< mix from the pair

over the last few years douglas greed live with his band has twisted heads at festivals over a few beers.underway with a percussionist and singer he is constantly on the highways ravaging the gas stations of europe – especially for the last few months. what has developed on the stage as a stout twister session for adults is now presented as a music release.the title piece masked up and messed up puts up a fat middle finger to everyone who lets their vanity slip out at the masked ball. the track is a bass-bellied house rocker along with vocals that wink an eye with a snot-nosed chorus added.with 5000 ansi lumen the lights roll on and off with a flick. there isn t anything the neighbors can do by knocking on the door when the cross-trainers are carrying the load of the baseline! the rainfall in the very first beat provides space for a a dried-out drum. in this dusty atmosphere, it builds up ever and ever more and takes flight to the foremost place. a groovy stop and go – dissolved into a supplication for rain and salvation.

kicking off a big year for apple pips with something tasty and different from komon & appleblim! having worked together on remixes for respected labels like ninja tune & aus, appleblim & komonazmuk (now going under the name komon for his house/bass productions) started jamming in the studio on some original material. messing with boundaries and having fun was the order of the day, and what we have here are two of the first results… ’gas jam’ is a bassline-led roller with a nod to both classic uk garage & the futuristic house & techno vibes of uk bass music. getting dropped on rinse fm on both the marcus nasty & hypercolour shows, & with eats everything & carl craig supporting it already you can hear why it appeals to open minded and diverse djs.. ’silencio’ shimmers and shines on a glooped-out balearic/kosmiche beat, an 80s soul soundsystem bassline funks on through and leads you into a woozy blissed out climax…slo-mo house/bass balearic bizniss… with more collabs with appleblim to follow this year, his new productions getting props from all angles, & releases lined up on hypercolour, komon’s year is shaping up nicely!

4 fantastic trax done by one of the best deep house producer right now : montel. being an avid record collector and dance music enthusiast for nearly 20 years, montel has slowly but surely cultivated his craft. feeling all nostalgic after his 20 year love affair with house music, he felt it was time to find a creative outlet for his sounds. not concerned with topping charts, being in the playlists of top djs or winning social networking popularity contests, montel is a man of simplicity. his only objective is to give back the good vibrations, making music for djs and dancers. music for sweaty basements, house partys and day time raves. nothing big, nothing clever.. just vibes

giant cuts present vol 2 in the series of authentic disco modifications. dj support: dave jarvis (moton) ste hodge (kat records) 78 edits / andy hart (mdc) / digby (mixmag) and more.

our first offering from survival and silent witness sets off the tone of what to expect from the full *in from the wild* package itself and album which seems to morph and twist from all out dance floor brutality to musical genius and back like these 2 artists seem to do so often and so effortlessly. *the feeding* is a powerful space age drum-shuffled crowd killer whilst *lights* presents a more musical journey from start to finish, in our eyes it is a very complete 12 inch pick from a very well pieced album. trust us, this talented duo are taking no prisoners in 2013.
support for the album so far from: friction (on bbc radio 1), laurent garnier (on his pbb worldwide radio show), london elektricity (on his hospital records xmas podcast). select tracks have also received wide support and praise from the likes of calyx & teebee, break, ant tc1, nymfo (as featured on his fabric mix), xtrah, youngsta, octane, dlr, skeptical, artificial intelligence, dbr uk, basher, mindscape, lynx, cern, hybris, ruckspin, june miller and gerra & stone.

two great friends, and exciting young talents, reunite for their second outing on real tone. the transatlantic partnership between leeds-born burnski and new yorks m a n i k has already produced one special creation – the dancefloor smash *you know what its like*. full of funk and relentless energy, the track was a great fusion of the contemporary styles of two well-respected producers.

the ukrainian techno heads gather all their experience and mix their visions on this unique collaborative ep. what we have got on the output is something unique called mutual exceptions.

belfast based champion sound music returns with its first release of 2013 in what is set to be a busy year for the young label in their venture to support the growing wave of talented irish electronic producers.

alex font is a serious guy who knows that now is his time. a multi-instrumentalist, as well as a producer and dj, he can sometimes be seen on stage in trademark shirt and bow tie. he declares himself a lover of vinyl and, above all, what he calls real house. i think that says it all.

after inigos well-received previous release >the shard<, he now steps up again with 2 epic pieces of electronic beauty.
i still find it hard to describe music after all these years, as i think the most important is what people feel when listening to it rather than pigeon holing the hell out of it. i simply love it, hope you do too. (kr!z)

streaking through the ether at twice the speed of sound, mr 8040 is on a date with destiny. he is heading for mikrosector-50, his home planet, but things are not going as smoothly as planned. en route he finds himself in sticky situations, cosmic encounters that trigger flashbacks to a different time and place. will he ever make it home? and who – or what – is he running from?
this, more or less, is the narrative thrust of jack hamills debut album as space dimension controller. welcome to mickrosektor-50 is a swashbuckling sci-fi odyssey that unfolds like some long-lost star wars episode scripted by philip k dick and scored by tangerine dream. the record is fantasy in its purest form: a futuristic boys own adventure concocted in a belfast bedroom, it is the sum of jacks musical influences distilled into 68 minutes of unalloyed electronic pleasure.

tieffrequent is a young berlin-based vinyl label which follows the idea and the wish to bring warm and deep sounds to you and your friends. it does not want to reproduce a hype or a mainstream-sound but more wants to give artists and friends a platform to get in contact about music and creativity. the first tieffrequent release is a various artist 4 tracker that gives us a little preview of what might follow in the nearer future on the label.

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.

4lux is proud to serve you the sounds of italian deep house pioneer enrico mantini. this twelve cleverly combines two of mantinis most sought-after classics

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.

rhythm and melody, the beat and the bass - thats what proper club music is all about. and with current chihouse revivalists galore, its really hard to come up with something really true to the roots, and brilliantly fresh at the same time. recognition recordings, run steadily by jacek sienkiewicz, polands true visionary of contemporary club beats in a world of post-techno, passes its 30th release with this four-track marvel of an ep by one chino

a minimal beat with house appeal meets a gloomy techno background, generates a lot of deepness and is arranged in a steadily rising style, building up and up again. what seems to be a cool tool turns out to be a true peaktime monster, right after a few minutes!

sugar jim jr.: dj, founder, event manager, movin�e gu.nther (one part of tricky fixin�f), head of it all. this man knows what works in the club, has also built a few dance temples with his own hands. awesome dude! music wise? very simple. deephousedisco & 6 a.m. euphoria!

my childhood was, from what i understand now as a grown up, not so bad after all. i had the possibility to do pretty much what i wanted as long as i didnt hurt anyone or myself for that matter. i had some friends, some of them i would consider my best friends ever

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!

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.
