excellent 4 track vinyl with sexy house tracks

as i look to the sky from the surface of the water is the much awaited second album from grit, aka london producer gary brackley and it has found a perfect home on meanwhile. the label is well placed to be an outlet for grits explorations deep into the realm of deep techno, thanks to its standing within the techno community and this album stands tall alongside contributions from the likes of murmur, sven weismann, bvdub and conforce. opening with the expansive title track, grit sets the tone for what to expect with the ripple of syncopation shifting in and out of focus amidst the viscous layers of foggified luminescent ambient texture. across the subsequent five tracks this tone is retained throughout as brackley playfully explores the inventive sparks that arise when rhythm rubs with texture, with the smudged out subaqueous >safer retreat< a real highlight.

big with m.a.n.d.y.,tiefschwarz , pan-pot, butch,rodriguez jr, sasse, kiki, deepchild, marco resmann, catz n dogz, coyu, martin eyerer, chloe , cormac & benoit c.. kai & holger return from their stateside adventures with matthew pervert on get physical. ‘matthew pervert’ is a slow buidling groove attack. saucy percussion sets the mood for a deep pumping bass under chords. a sassy vocal adds to the analogue ambience, worked in a coat of reverb and doused with delay. a sexy sound for steamy nights on the neverending dancefloor sessions smash tv are known for. the second track, ‘please’, starts immediately with a deep horn falling under kicks. a touch of techno emerges from the darkness and drives us insane. followed by deep vocal lines and foggy chords to melt us at the core. this is your evening high, the point when you float away and the music takes you to a place beyond the dancefloor. looking forward to hearing this in the next set from the boys.

98 releases strong and showing no signs of slowing when it comes to unearthing fresh talent and delivering high quality house music, this time crosstown rebels might just have discovered the new lady of house in francesca lombardo, judging by her exquisite debut - changes ep.

being the hopeless romantics we are here at circus company, when we fall for an artist we tend to do it head over heels. you may have witnessed this in the past with some of our dearest protégés, from dave aju to nicolas jaar. now we are embarking on the same kind of whirlwind affair with franck roger, the glow only just retreating from our cheeks after he won our hearts with the i take you up ep. like a well-seasoned casanova, franck has found the perfect way to follow up that first date with an even deeper reflection of himself as an artist, leaving us flustered and quite simply stunned by his charm.

ready to get weird this summer? matthew dekay and lee burridge certainly are with the launch of their second imprint in 6 months following the success of their first label all day i dream. while adid represents their love of all things emotional and melodic and embraces thier signature sound perfect for their outdoor parties of the same name get weird will see releases geared towards the music they play after dark. a place to showcase more dubby, techy, slinky and sultry rhythms to hypnotize dancefloors when the sun goes down.

five excellent cuts by arcanoid, who has already shown us how talented he is when it comes to producing advanced electro/techno on his previous releases on semantica and transhuman.

when dynamodyse made his debut on wph back in 2009 he struck a chord (pun intended) with lovers of emotional deep house worldwide. hailing from dortmund, mathias matze schmitt is a special character that immediately fit the bunch of wph nutters, so it was only a matter of time before he would be back with a second release. which incidentally will be his second release ever, which goes to show how much he trusts wph and how much wph trusts dynamodyse.

nice price deal !!! jean-baptiste de laubier, aka para one, has always been an hyperactive guy. he first started as no-nonsense hip-hop producer in the mid-nineties, making beats for undeground rap artists.
limited edition clear / translucent vinyl, including cd-copy of the full album.

tireless producer, tronic boss and top international dj christian smith here steps up for his first release on plus 8. over the years christian has offered up a high volume and high quantity of techno inclined singles for myriad labels (bedrock, systematic, 100percent pure, soma), so it only makes sense he now finds himself on one of the scenes most reliable outposts for such material. the two track ep kicks off with house is house which is, as the name suggests, a little house-ier than the flip, but still deals in plenty of heavy bass weight and slick repetition. the devil is in the detail filtered, dark voices, rattling cowbells, washes of white noise synths and long, thin, forward looking pads - all of which are married to a mid-tempo groove. the more forceful indulge me then follows. taught kick drums start immediately as claps and subtle synth stabs swell in volume until they eventually fill out the whole airwaves. squirming behind are thin and icy steel lines until the first drop when the deliciously bouncy groove sets in proper. far from aping the usual detroit and chicago tropes, christian smith has once again crafted two classy dance floor joints that are not only exquisitely produced, but that bare all the usual hallmarks of christian smith, one of the most consistent producers in the game.

ltd 2012 repress !!! big l.garnier, steve bug, rolando support!!! what we re gonna do here is go back... back into time! this unlikely bulgarian/uk duo churns out an old skool chicago monster that reminds us of the rawest mr. fingers productions from the late 80s. we have been jacking our body ever since we first heard it. comes as vocal and instrumental. the b side sees a solo outing by kink and again it sounds like we go back 20 years... raw and dirty house music. when music is this good, let there be renaissance! our house is your rush!

ltd 2012 repress !! back to jack - this killer production combo come with more chicago trax.... fingers-tip! after their debut success >inside out<, which was charted and licensed world wide, earlier this year, kink & neville watson are back big time! they rock our world with their vintage chicago sound, like its summer of love all over again. although they have the old skool sound going, they easily keep up with todays productions standards. it will rock any system. raw and dirty house music. when music is this good, let there be renaissance!

nice price deal !!! after three releases of darkened house, proto rave and weird techno, hollands boutique purple maze label takes a detour into funky disco territory with prime numbers and firecracker craftsman fudge fingas at the helm. his amaranthine labyrinth ep is lively, bright and sugary, but still features plenty of complex analogue machinery to get you dancing.eyes on the prize opens proceedings with some distant bongos, glassy percussion and punchy kick drums. its a jostling track with insistent claps running right through it that really comes alive when some sweeping chords bring irresistible colour and funk.

what can you expect when you have such a wild album for the 5 years of material.part 2 for the material remixes featuring pig & dan, rino cerrone, pherox and nicolas masseyeff. 300 copies only

this release should have an all natural ingedients sticker on it. all sounds you hear are from traditional instruments - recorded on various occasions in ivory coast. it took mr raoul k quite some time to get his hand on all the raw materia he needed. he then cut it in bits and pieces and rearranged the sonic puzzle to a slowly evolving track. join his journey that starts in the cold of a desert at night. the temperature rises with the sun. when things heat up too much, you have to take a rest in the shadows beneath a tree. meet some fiends, talk and relax - but dont get lost. keep you groove alive and head toward your destination. choose vinyl, please!!!

coloured vinyl bomb alert! hrdvsions prettier than that is a monster,created by a monster and is perfectly suited for the likes of wagon repair. dim the lights, because when this record drops its going to get freaky! on the flip side, midnight operator (the duo of mathew jonson and hrdvsion) bring the noise! dangerous behaviour rains bass in your face! if you caught their live show on boiler room recently then youll understand. these two are ready to take the dance floors by storm this year - a melding of the analog and digital minds.

we really dont know what they put into danish water, but somethings gotta be responsible for all that freeform talent pouring out of that country. think of whomadewho, jatoma, when saints go machine or kenton slash demon, all sharing a keen sense for structural complexity made accessible through emotion and pure boldness. these guys freed their minds a while ago, so the asses seemingly followed suit and now constantly demand to be shaken. with two of those acts already signed to kompakt and the other two being staff favorites since their first acoustic blurps, it was just a question of time until we would discover another totally unique producer from denmark. enters taragana pyjarama, a project whose music is as refined as it is chaotic, described by some as a fairytale with a bassline.
comes as double 10 inch vinyl, including cd-version of this release.

nina simone was one of the best blues singers of the 20th century. only someone the likes of billie holiday and bessie smith had the power to lay a soul bare like she could, as her stripped-down be my husband shows. naked like a field-holler, this song would later capture the imagination of jeff buckley and antony hegarty. nina simone never, ever disappoints.
re-released for the first time on vinyl since 1965, we hope we do >pastel blues< justice with this 180 grams audiophile vinyl pressing.

thats some serious shit ! is a new record label dedicated to old house music and to dancers. following the steps of kerry chandler, mr. fingers, ron trent, masters at work and so on... away from the hype, we want to bring back the spirit of the early 90s when house music was not only music, but a communion of body, soul, freedom and love. we hope to get you with us... in the dance, in the club. now ride on the sound

ho tep presents a raw and ice cold ep of grime instrumentals with a fresh and visoral twist. produced by spainsh upstart noaipre - an affilate of mwselee and bfelcha - the horda ep is the sound of pirate radio gone crazy. this is what happens when east london infects the minds of our europena conterparts. disconpubulated neon riddims. enjoy.
early support from elijah & skilliam, brackles, j rocc, chrissy murderbot, mweslee

this monterous techno anthem is oscillating between n.cuer usual minimal style and physical records fearsome atmosphear, develloping with a huge leads and squeaky sounds, undoubtinglys been prepared to set fire on the floor. as for b side, we get two remixes made by the label co-owners and main artist mik zif and midwooder. the first is drilling deeper into darkness with a proper physical techno rave style rmx. when the second is digging deeper into minimal techno, bringing the original tunes a bit more of deepness, while still keeping it ultra dancefloor efficient. definitely about to make a lot of noise in the techno scene this year and further, overload destruction and its remixes appears to be unmissable titles for any minimal and techno sets!

smith & mudd are back in fine style on claremont 56, following up their excellent lp with this great double header! >sauna love< is the lead track, an uptempo, string laden boogie house affair with great vibes, bass, strings and punchy percussion all rolling along into the sunshine. on side-b >the surveyor< is a great piece of otherworldly electronic music, coming on like some weird cough medicine induced dream. the bass pulses along with mystery dialogue, light key flourishes and an intent that is delivered about 5 minutes in when the kick drops and the whole thing shifts into a latenight, alt disco bomb.

following on from the massively popular philadelphia international: the re-edits package, here is the 2nd release in our special philly 40 campaign which is celebrating the 40th anniversary of philadelphia international records. welcome to the hugely anticipated philadelphia international classics: the tom moulton remixes.

medical records is ecstatic to present the reissue of the essential >novels for the moons< by axxess. originally released in 1983, axxess is the brainchild of french multimedia artist patrick mimran. mr. mimran was co-director of lamborghini motors (along with his brother) at the time and fittingly released the album on the imprint lamborghini records. heavily influenced by german electronic pioneers klaus schulze, tangerine dream, and kraftwerk, mr. mimran commissioned the german engineer andreas bahrdt to build a custom complex synthesizer which eventually materialized into a 16 voice analog synthesizer of genius proportions.
presented on high-quality 180gram yellow vinyl in a limited edition of 1000 hand-numbered copies.

we are very proud and honered to release this ep by function aka dave sumner from sandwell district. one of technos true underground heroes, function (dave sumner) has been djing and making music for over 15 years. hailing from new york, he was seduced by techno music when jeff mills held a residency (as well as his own first) at the limelight in the early 90s. dave started to produce music and from the mid-90s onwards, put out music on damon wilds synewave and his own infrastructure imprint. together with regis (karl o connor) he worked as portion reform, putting out uncompromising music on downwards and becoming the only non-birmingham producer to release on the label. in 2008 dave moved to berlin, still working with regis, and now silent servant (john mendez), put his focus on the acclaimed sandwell district imprint. obsessed is a supper powerfull floating track for the dancefloor, a typical function production. this ep also contains remixes from substance and scb aka scuba, both peak-time tracks.

when the house music phenomenon was beginning, chicago djs like ron hardy and new yorkers such as frankie knuckles and larry levan would edit records for their own purposes, removing the parts they felt to be superfluous, concentrating instead on extending grooves and hooks, often adding their own basic synth lines and toughening up the percussion with what have now become classic synthesizers and drum machines. warehouse classics vol.1 holds 4 killer tracks going from obscure disco to new wave, first popularised at the music box and rarely heard anywhere else. sir leon greg (another incarnation of perseus traxx) jams out then reinforces some edits of forgotten classics with a raw & personal analogue treatment for a devastating full effect on the dance floor, that is a far cry from the proliferation of over-produced squeaky-clean software edits. these are basic, raw ideas thrown down quickly and capturing the energy on 1/4 inch tape before moving on to the next set of sounds. musically, its as delightfully funky and uncomplicated as youd expect, a mesh of disco tracks and heavy, effect laden, machine-funk. essential item!!

above machine is a record label run by steve lee (the project club). seconds is the alter ego of markus enochson and luciano leiva. together with singer linus lutthi they deliver >another day< which is a breezy, balearic affair with the solemn moodiness of nick drake. it is reminiscent of late end-of-summer days when time seems to stand still, but in the most bittersweet of ways. remixes are provided by lexx - who once again adds that subtle disco blend whilst drinking an estrella at the beach bar. the seahawks dive deep and provide an ambient masterpiece, which lures you deeper into their crazy world of delays, reverb and a studer a80 running backwards in a shoreditch broom cupboard.

lampuka records is a new underground electronic music label dedicated to releasing quality music on limited vinyl pressings & digital. the ethos for lampuka according to boss raimo: thought provoking and mood evoking. i want people to remember when they first encountered a lampuka.
the labels inaugural release features original tracks from head honcho raimo and up and coming producer tomas rubeck, who has a growing number of releases under his belt. lovingly hand stamped and limited to 375 physical copies, this release also features a spellbinding remix from edinburghs finest deep house confectioner gavin sutherland aka fudge fingas - known for his sublime work on prime numbers and the uber collectible firecracker imprint.

2012 - we are milleniumized neo, more than ever before. 1993, when techno was all over the place, german experts tommi eckart (at that time not 2raumwohnung yet) and ralf hertwig (at that time not palais schaumburg anymore) released a track, which found its way out there as a legendary underground-club classic in germany,england, benelux and france: the beat just goes straight on and on. its been sold out for years, but djs still play it in the clubs and it never lost its beat. now in 2012, almost 20 years later, the vinyl reissue being released, including the original cut and a remix by matthew styles & tobi neumann. it just goes on and on, enjoy!

zum 40. jubiläum des legendären philly-labels erscheinen in kooperation mit expansion eine reihe limitierter 7 inch vinyle mit den besten klassikern!

big with:ernesto ferreyra, the mole, akufen, vincent lemeuix.. inspired by classic disco and electro, dkmd have already produced several dance music tracks, using old and new technology in order to come up with a unique sound which pays homage to their predecessors without sounding pastiche. echoes of giorgio moroder and donna summer can be felt throughout on the other side, while the playful and sensual taxi cab recounts the familiar story of an early morning phone call received by a girl in a cab, on her way home from a pleasurable night out. perhaps it is their experience playing together as improvisers that adds a special touch to their dance music,as they have grown accustomed to perform almost every element in their tracks using hardware intruments and effect boxes.in addition to their disco project,the two have a considerable track record as experimentalists and the dark,cosmic and mysterious androide is a good example of some of their output in the genre.even though dkmd are only at the beginning of their dancefloor adventures,they show no signs of stopping,and when asked what comes next,they will likely answer

the wonderful debut album by cold specks as 12 inch vinyl in gatefold cover, including cd and booklet.

props can only be directed to his home base label, tiefschwarz: souvenir music and to his music crony, rampa for nourishing re.you with the swing he needs to deliver the beats fans adore. and every so often he wanders about seeking labels to harvest his funky house seeds in. so when the berlin-based producer and dj planted a mind-blowing, full on dance ep at the mobilee headquarters to kick of the 2012 summer, they were thrilled to watch the magic flourish. the a side is home to mind your head, a funky vocal piece featuring daniel wilde with just the right drops between its smooth grooves. a crazy trip through the mind after a wild night out gives this track a boisterous appeal completely eliminating any dark and heavy elements. junction is on the flip and isn’t too far off the button as it keeps the upbeat tempo grooving with the background percussions. re.you hijacks the mood and keeps the number high-spirited and actively exciting by offering a non-stop party package.

radioblues take me home on fenou no.16 is the sweetest piece of minimalish housy electronica in a long time on this label. as a mere mortal you cannot resist the dreamy voice of sylwia van der wonderland. you just want to fulfil her wish to take her home and get caught up in her world. solely the music itself makes it impossible to leave the dance floor and thats thanks to robert - the rocket scientist - who is the other half of this organic duo. with remixes by umami, arjuna schiks and le prix you can choose from various styles, but when the last beats fade youre almost forced to flip to b side and back to the a and so on and so forth

yoruba records proudly present the return of afefe iku. returning after a four year hiatus with is his first release since his 2008 debut album and smash hit mirror dance, here we have a four song ep entitled the blues. with his eclectic force and sound, afefe brings us another chapter in his developing story. the blues gives us the dark edge of deeper techno, whereas the arsonist is an in your face mid tempo head banger featuring osunlade on vocals. dakountdown and jungle beats stand alone in style and approach as a throwback to the days when house was simply just house, without the multitude of todays dance genres. yoruba pray that you embrace the next wave of sound from the mind of the man who brought you the classic artifacts of pottery vessels

thinking too much/where the helios is juk juks second release on nommos. thinking too much is the most direct juk juk release so far. its peak time fare, aimed squarely at the dancefloor. the dreamy intro will fool the unsuspecting, sucking them in and propelling them on a tripped out ride on a techno ghost train, buffered by a cushion of warm throbbing bass. where the helios is the real dream side. a floating, hallucinogenic, spaced out drift, driven by a crisp, pared back rhythm and a gorgeous, woozy vocal- led melody. juk juks first release for nommos was unwrap/fall and before that his debut, winter turn spring/frozen, was put out by kieran (four tet) hebden on his highly regarded text label. all juk juks output to date has been critically acclaimed, coverage including fact magazine, pitchfork, mix mag, abeano, the fader amongst others. his releases have also received significant club and radio plays including mainstream radio 1 support from admirers giles peterson and rob da bank, who has promised support for this release. four tet said the room went off when playing thinking too much at a recent event.

>parallel series 3<, comes from two well respected reference points in the international scene: bas mooy and chris finke. their sound identities compare and compliment, contrast and challenge each other, creating a wordless dialogue.

the prism is an aluminum cube, small enough to fit in your palm. it was designed by nicolas jaar as a new medium for releasing music. the first release - csa001 - features twelve (mostly) unreleased songs from jaar and other clown & sunset collaborators. the prism is a piece of art in and of itself, its contents beg to be shared. twin headphone outlets encourage connections to the object and between the two listeners. the prism tries to restore physicality to the listening experience. the medium and the method are as important as the music itself. the prism makes you consider how the music is being heard, the way the object feels in your hands, and its potential to foster intimacy between listeners. when the prism is unplugged, a beam of light passes through the empty center, revealing a void. someone is missing.

from gui borattos latest album iii comes >this is not the end<, an indie minded track that convincingly demonstrates guis impressive skill set when it comes to emotional narratives embedded in a distinctively monumental context. like his timeless >beautiful life< and last years album highlight >destination: education< (already remixed to perfection by terranova and tale of us), >this is not the end< features the beautiful vocals of luciana villanova, who seems to know exactly what makes gui tick - which doesnt come as a surprise, as they are married – and possesses this rarest of all gifts, an unique voice that seems to address each listener personally. in his own 2012 mix featured here, gui doesnt so much concentrate on the originals tearjerking qualities (which were already fully formed), but streamlines the arrangement for ease of use on the floor of your choice, making the track even more refined and addictive. those of you looking for a slighty more adventurous approach will find their satisfaction with michael mayers rework on the flipside, where the source materials hypnotic qualities are brought to the fore, resulting in a masterful slice of catchy prime time psychedelica. with both mixes turning out to be instant classics, we can definitely confirm that this is not the end.

36 hours in. the lights are flickering and the sweat is pouring out of you like the thoughts that you re trying to write down, to get down the words, to put down the message, to translate all the ideas that keep appearing in your head. ideas like uninvited guests that keep showing up and refusing to leave. somewhere though, there s a truth in there. you know it because you saw it. you know it because you felt it. because when you knew that even though there were ten million reasons why you should go to bed now, why you should go to bed straight away. that you should put these silly things down and stop trying to create and just get some sleep already. that you should stop trying to wrestle the ideas in your subconscious down to the ground so you can actually capture and express them to others. but you persist.
