oberman knocks original version (white) is a laid-back affair housed within a glassy place of worship, echoing with monastic vocals, strings, wind instruments and field recordings, which are offset by synthetic beats, funk bass and entwined sleazy vocals.
in contrast autechres remix (black), panning out at just over 17 minutes long, is everything that you wouldd expect from the duo – a frantic, fractured and detailed to within an inch of its life piece, that has no need to build, but instead unravels and mutates into what is an unmistakable autechre crescendo.
whilst both versions play out at opposite ends of the tempo spectrum, what connects them is that they are both emotional machine music with guts and vigour.

the third in the modular techno series from live analogue artist and freerotation organiser steevio. after 15 years of producing techno live on hardware, in 2009 steevio began building a dedicated machine on which he could totally improvise an entire techno performance from a blank canvas that far surpassed anything he could do with his previous setup of drum machines and synthesizers. steevio’s modular is 100 analogue, there is no computer involved, there are no memories to save sounds or sequencing patterns, and everything is improvised in real time.. volumes 1 and 2 of the series were just a taster of what was to come, and were the early experimentations on steevio’s newly built machine. steevio records everything he does, especially during the intense practice sessions for live gigs. all the music in the series are out-takes from these practice sessions, and the tracks from volume 3 and the forthcoming volume 4 all come from a three day period in practice for a recent live gig at delete, bournemouth, uk. volume 3 continues from where volume 2 left off but delivered with more confidence and a deeper more hypnotic feel. steevio continues to develop his skills and fine tunes his unique instrument in this dedicated for life project.

alexander kowalski is someone you should know. not only is he a resident artist at our club, but with uncountable eps and several albums on heiko laux label kanzleramt and others, he has contributed more to electronic music than many others. to have a separate platform for the darker and harder productions of his, he created the alias d_func. a while ago. when he approached us with the tracks that are now on the record in hand, we immediately fell in love with the mills-like energy of them. perfect drum programming, driving synth lines two perfect tools for any proper techno set. the dirt mix of revalism which is included in the digital release package puts the original in a more modern jacket with its stompy beat – another proof of how well alexander knows what the djs need to please their crowd.let the dancefloors burn!

with *believe in love* yousef returns home to circus recordings with 3 cuts that have been turning heads all summer long. the title track features the legendary vocal of roy davis jr who once again, asks the world a poignant question. a rolling, infectious and gnarly groove develops and unfolds into a long and harmonic breakdown before a blistering crescendo. designed for the heads but with still enough action for the people that follow yousefs more musically trickier offerings.
just a beat is exactly that. yousef busts out a stripped back boogie bass over tight drums and oddball acid. no messing around, heads down, hands up. what is revolution is completely reworked by circus label mates acid mondays. remixing one of the stand out cuts from yousefs recent *a product of your environment* artist album, the mondays show how to bring authentic house music into the 21st century.

a heavyweight re-edit ep from the moop up camp ranging from a certain andalusian roma anthem to a tophit from the glorydays of mainstream disco. a definite partystarter.

for over 12 months thomas feriero aka avatism, our friend and label partner, has been staying at home and working on his album. he moved to berlin to work on it and now sadly (for us) yet (gladly) for him he is moving back to milan. poof! just like that. so what did this year entail exactly? well for some of us not much. we got to see him in his studio comfy pants a couple of times (he wears slippers) we heard his studio woes, ate pasta with him, drank beers and of course got to hear his album at every juncture. while this self-imposed exile may have been a little worrisome the result is fortunately spectacular. adamant is a glimpse into how a city shapes a life and how intrinsically life then shapes music.

underground quality artist and fear of flying owner blm drops *easy knocking* this spring for huxleys saints & sonnets imprint.
blm, or ben micklewright, has been increasingly on the radar of quality house heads in recent years with output for underground quality and secretsundaze nudging his profile slowly but surely. his stewardship of fear of flying alongside jay massive has resulted in the label, in similarly steady fashion, becoming a mustcheck for fans of the deeper end of house techno who are seeking something that sidesteps trends.blm is at his best when turning in moody, hypnotic and robust house cuts imbued with a distinct uk stylings and that is exactly what he does on *easy knocking* while also turning in electroid tones on opening cut, *paris beatdown*. the result is a classic sounding 4-track ep that has picked up support from efdemin, hackman, djulz, citizen and mosca.

hand stamped white label. you might remember shan from his one-sided sven-väth-approved hit how you want it for frankfurts newly founded label the healing company. here he is with his monolithic chord memories. an evocation of what dubbed out house and techno tracks usually do, but to a rather unusual and - if we dare say - devastating effect. the flip holds three short and direct cuts with leanings to the a-side and one acid track. necessary ruffness.

eintakt 29 >rauhv01< vinyl, including 2 exclusive remixes of nvelopes successful first full length >chords & scapes<, also part of the 3 track ep is the original song >tribute< by nvelope. nvelope presents his tribute version on a1, a track as simple as classic as good as you know what im talking about.longtime label fellow gunnar hemmerling (also man behind dock records) kicks off on the a2 with a quite reduced stomper (and as >stomping ground< is the tracks name he does good so). proper ancient techno vibes, enslaving the circuitry and drumming on the real heavy barrels. rob strobe and kai randy michel aka say what introduce themselves on eintakt on full b-side with a soupy submarine machine and you might dont know what to say (but the project name says say what) and i say get lost there then (and you probably will). the rauhv series are an upcoming collection of unreleased remixes of different rauhphaser releases
