nice price deal !!! big with mickey moonlight, tensnake, cosmo vitelli, todd terje, joakim and the permanent vacation crew. they ve been called one of dance music s best kept secrets jackpot. in 1983 italian experimental sound artist marco donatello and swedish synth pioneer gleen asp made recordings together. their ambition was to put sound to an art-project but the result was an erotic cocktail of italo-esque melodies, ebm rhythms, and filmic arpeggios. legend has it the music was made as an excuse to press records off a narcotic solution in order to smuggle drugs, and that a mishap during the operation explains why we haven t heard these tracks before. in any case, this is an exclusive document of unknown yet truly unique swedish dance music.

nice price deal !!! kaktus records is back finally with an explosive vinyl! a max of bass and magic melodies, thats the result of the collaboration of these 2 new french artists of the hard dance world. prepare yourself and jump your soul!

3 great tracks for the big techno floors by sergy casttle, sergy is one of the rising stars in spain. after his releases for the label of christian varela / pornographic he s showing with these tracks why!

medias have stated recently that the number of millionaires is still rising every year... funny or scandalous? while others are sitting greedily on their fortune, one of them, kind of musically obsessed to say the least, keep to share his assets with the lucky few that will hold a part of his twelve inches serie in their hand. still getting another round of applause for the third offering that impressed quality djs from all circles (from milez benjiman to marc mac, passing by prins thomas to chateau flight), the selfmade millionaire is gaining more supporters release after release. this time, he is tributing the greatest boxer of all time and his legendary shuffle techniques in a funky boogie way with nearly 8 minutes of irresistible feelgood grooviness. many things have been said about this highly influential character, but few know that his boxing moves would have originated some freestylin’ breakdance figures. one more reason why the milionaire wanted to encourage you to do the ali...wait to flip the record to get another punch! even gave you diamonds is a restless groove that could transform an egyptian mummy into a marathon party goer with its numerous hooks, clavinet stabs and powerful catchy vocals. the tune seems to be about a guy whos really tired of his posh lady who cannot get enough of all her fancy gimmicks. would our milionaire gone autobiographical on this one? who knows...

tom neville and gower ramsay come together to on the latest release from the phenomenal love minus zero. these two peak time tech house & techno tracks leave you wondering why there arent more tracks out there this good! mechanical ballet has a wonderfully techy groove with synth sounds of old. imagine dark rooms, red lights and sexy people and youve got the right idea.

label boss, spiros kaloumenos does it again! analog mode 01 was charted and hammered by main techno players and more of the same is expected for this one also. two solid techno originals by spiros that prove exactly why his reputation is growing more and more over the last years. moderate and turbulence were tested continuously on spiros dj sets over the last months and proved that will rock the dancefloors big way with their massive breakdowns and rhythm!! on the flipside two remixes make this record a must have!! this time on remix duties are two names that need no introduction! paul mac from u.k, label boss of stimulus rec. and contributor to some of the biggest ever techno imprints like: primate, theory, ingoma, intec, sino, kanzleramt, delivers the goods for one more time turning original track into a pure, straight, peak time mover!

another full blown rave up from the label that proves that wonky can be not only fun, but also successful! last releases have all sold like hot cakes, and if you check out the tracks on here its easy to see why. quality genre-smashing bombs through and through, all that is required here is a bit of imagination. if youve got 7 zillion tracks to choose from on your laptop, why play all the same ones as everyone else? club killers everyone, from mustard gunn vs onkens humanoid esque take no prisoners to the onkens rave break attack of possession of ganja, and from the stomping hoover frenzy of lukes angers clodhopper to jerome hills hardcore sample a thon tickle the bee (a tribute).open your mind and get sick!!!

the greens keepers camp with some jacking reinterpretations of various known tunes

the first release of the fresh & new berlin label konsequenz comes from one of the hottest producers out of berlin for this genre, and co owner of the fresh vidab label, oliver deutschmann. support comes from chaim, ed davenport, jay shepheard, tama sumo (panorama bar)

the second release on this imprint of stephane signore is a three tracker one which stephane drops a track called >hysteria<, samuel sanders drops a track called >carnage< and stephane remixes his very own >hysteria<. all of them are really pumping and edgy techno tracks, created to rock dancefloors. as stephane signore released many records on big labels the past year, with this release he proves once again why...

incl indeep, the police, tom tom club, david bowie, moonbase, kissing the pink, soft cell, david byrne, marianne faithfull, captain sensible and esg

after the massive 13th release on combat skills by waldhaus and x-tension, combat skills battles on with four heavy tracks by fl-x on release number 14. fl-x is steadily becoming a household name in the hardtechno scene, having released work on mental torments records, toptrax recordings, alphabet city and killfactory in 2007 and 2008. listen why

hot on the heels of acclaimed releases for four:twenty, dessous, sonar kollektiv, buzzin fly and his own diynamic usic, house producer du jour mladen solomun returns with his second stunning single for dessous after the sublime >sambada ep<. >woodstep< is a percussive trip to the heart of house, a tech-tinged groove peppered with strange tribal rhythms, evoking a midnight trek into the sultry tropical rainforest. on the flip, >no comment<, an analogue bubblebath of a bassline propels a techier cut, where detroit washes do battle with stepping keys, a crisp beat and belches of hissing smoke. halfway through, a spoken word sample ushers in lush echoic piano chords, taking the track to the next level. combining the heavily rhythmic bustle of classic house with the darker touch of techno in his own idiosyncratic & dancefloor - capti-vating way, solomun once agains shows why hes rapidly becoming one of the most in-demand producers in the game

incl massive damian schwartz remix !! fabio giannelli shows once again why he is the top techno maschine at the moment

nice price deal !!! the pairing of dohr & mangold have already started to be something of a revelation, the guys are definitely turning heads & getting labels excited. john dahlback continues his amazing array of remix work by once again showing quite simply why hes one of the best in the business. deep, spacey & atmospheric...style of eye delivers a cool synth stripped rework that builds and builds... just watch those reactions as the bassline kicks in from the break – you have been warned!

cane is the acid alter ego of don & roel funcken, aka funckarma, quench, automotive, dif:use and shadowhuntaz. having done several releases and remixes on resopal and warp records to name a few, these guys are steaming on - proving why once more with this massive release !!

second set of remixes for this genre straddling track, featuring the vocal talents of soul sensation in waiting, ben westbeech. marrying the kraakers future funk and hip hop beats with a sensational perfomance from the young bristolian made this track a sure bet as the first choice single although the band did release a couple of warm up eps to remind everyone why their debut album boogie angst was a worldwide success. here trevor loveys, mainstay of the dubsided label, originator of the fidget house sound alongside switch, sinden and jesse rose and partner of herve in the huge selling speakerjunk project, turns in a hot vocal remix that pumps the track towards a different dancefloor altogether. he also found time to serve up a tasty dub that neatly crosses the divide between bassline and techy fidget house. one for the festivals this summer no doubt!

dj ogi (beast music, planet rhythm, patterns, compressed) picks it up again and shows why the labelowner likes his style so much! solid kicks and no-nonsense editing skills makes his tracks driving through and through and through!

cut the crap, straight to the essence. lizm04 is among us, essential dancing and listening courtesy of ahmet sisman, our own private istanbul/brussels/essen connection. some pure dancefloor pleasure hidden in a-side track hiyan, multilayered, quirky luvly trippiness: one surely aiming for the boxes of djs digging the onur ozer vibe of late. the other side (why call it a b-side anyway ?) goes for a slightly deeper approach, guzzling in the vibe of a few hours later down the line in your favourite afterparty .... but hey why not just use the authors own words to sum it all up : this is surely: >dance for the moment<

incl format b remix !! the 6th release on david keno s own imprint comes with a deep harmonic bass and a fragile synthline embedded in a pushing groove. berlin s format b don t have to be introduced any more because everyone knows their incredible releases and remixes on highgrade, stil vor talent, opossum or great stuff. their pattexremix is more stripped down and rough than the original what brings more rave attitude to the dancefloors. that is why we love these guys so much.

bbe records have teamed up with dj/producer mr thing, to dig deep into his extensive collection to compile a series of albums of rare and sought after breaks. this series reflects brilliantly on his dedication to digging for those untouched and unrivalled samples and breaks as you hear him use in his dj sets. as a dj, mr thing never fails to engage the crowd with his winning combination of hip hop and funk breaks spiced up with his legendary mixing and scratching skills. the first installment in the five part strange breaks & things series contains superb songs, some you ve probably never heard of, some which may make you go: i recognize this sample! because it was once used as the backdrop for a classic hip hop track. if you liked the legendary strange games compilation series on bbe compiled by the likes of kenny dope & dj spinna, you ll love strange breaks & things.

that gel abril is destined to be one of the main producer of 2008 is already clear to a lot of djs and producers worldwide. be as one, ovum, renaissance all these great labels have already put their hands on this tel aviv based guy, and the remix package of his new single >your face is a mess< including three of the most interesting artists of the past year, is just a confirmation of gels destiny to climb up high. deetrons not a stranger to the electronic music world. hes been constantly in the spotlights of the scene for many years, and now once again he proves why. his 10 minutes marathon remix on the a side really stands out for its superb programming throughout the entire track. starting building things up slowly it relentlessly delivers the goods with one of his best work to date. on the b side, its the hottest uk techno producer mark broom who joins the be as one crew bringing all his experience to serve the cause. another winner! closing the package, itamar sagi, one of baos new artists, delivers a very interesting and original >jazz meets detroit< mix and gives the package the right balance between the techno genres. a storming rework from a fresh talented producer that cannot help but keep the eyes of >those in the know< down on him!

brand new album from alec empire on his new label, eat your heart out. the golden foretaste of heaven finds the unmistakable energy, political savvy and aggression still intact - together with the industrial sounds, the barrage of electronic distortion and the throbbing beats a.e is known for. firmly more electronic than on previous albums the sounds are rounded out with a sublime melodic quality. the golden foretaste of heaven presents original electronic sounds of new berlin in 2008.

with blind way, franck roger is going back to the early years of house. in fact he shows a lot of himself, musically and vocally, taking us onto a fascinating night-tracky journey. some may call it old school, franck simply calls it 100% pure house music. i dream of u is a little shout out to the wonderful & inspirational detroit scene. the hypnotic chimes loop, turnin around a looped bass, whilst stabs drive this riveting track along its way. only for real house lovers! call it detroit house but why not also call it paris house music!?

what can i do for you? its been a busy year for yapacc. released a handful of quality releases on wir, the green empire and lessizmore, remixed dole & kom, german pop-duo 2raumwohnung, co-produced three releases with good groove, the studio wizard is also working currently on his very first solo debut - coming out in march 2008 on neutonmusic. with >n!ce< yapacc returns to neutonmusic on where he has collaborated with fadila demirtas. ex-repeat repeat member, mark rutherford, shows his first solo work under his object object moniker. and proves easily why andrew weatherall calls himself a fan: this is dark, somehow trippy, much weirder (and faster) version of the original - which reminds us of submarine raves from back in the late 1950s... played by sven väth

phoonky minimal techno !! behind the 18th release are 3 locals from berlin. philip bader joins forces with heinrichs & hirtenfellner to rock your socks off. just like they do in every weekend back to back with a dj calendar busy as fuck. off course they are producers well renowned in their own right and this ep is a good example why

ibadan records releases yet another double-pack of killer remixes. this time of >f12< and >elevation<. jerome sydenham and tiger stripes started their collective creative journey with the now classic >stockholm go bang!< they followed up with two installations. >f12< and >elevation<, on the successful ibadan 10inch beats series which leads us to this searing new double-pack. featuring delectable remixes from radio slave, argy, ink & needle, and hideo kobayashi. f12 in true argy style he delivers two exemplary and innovative remixes giving us fresh insight into his state of mind for the next musical season. hideo serves up a punchy jacked tech mix with progressive overtones. a winner for those so inclined. elevation radio slave yet again shows his musical prowess with two remixes from both ends of the tech spectrum that will more than satisfy his ever expanding fan base. ink & needle waste no time proving why everyone will be paying them serious attention in the new year. what else is there to say – tech-house at its freshest!

unsoaked girl (a1) is probably one of the deepest and best works that rush ever delivered. soulful strings and a bassline that sounds a lot like early saunderson makes it hard to believe that mr. snare-and-bass has been working here. wonder why he didnt keep up like that… one time 300 unit repress only !

hipp e and mastiksoul show on this record why they are world top producers. an amazing record with all the quality you would expect from a club anthem

huge 2 track dubstepper. includes why dem fight feat bunnington - flip for the outlaw dub

produced/written by theo parrish, rick wilhite, marcellus pittmann and kenny dixon jr. aka moodyman tracks of jazz fused house music on a bottom heavy detroit tip. very strong record througout, ltd repress

dimi angélis & jeroen search. both artists are among the few internationally acclaimed techno artists from the netherlands. their dj activity and production work reaches back into the early nineties. >the new frontier< melds the firmness and determination of old school techno with a contemporary subtlety. it is amazing how few elements jereon search and dimi angélis need to create a dense and compelling athmosphere. >lunar< is the kind of track that slips perfectly in a wide range of club sets. while it offers the dj a vast span of possible connections to other music, its hypnotic melody does not leave your head for hours. >jupiter< is bolder, it is centered around a demanding groove. while the melodies operate in the background of the track, the complex net of rhythmic patterns shifts indistinguishably. it is the type of music which holds you in a tight grip - and you are not even able to tell what exactly is so striking about it. its implicitness makes >the new frontier< such a special record. it belongs to the rare breed of music which does not demand to go into your box - and this is exactly why it is made to stay there for quite some time

zwart is dutch for black - the label which was recently brought to life by the twins of tormenting techno stefan and vincent de wit. the style you can expect is a twisted dark combination of furious beat programming and full on percussion. these men support the dutch scene by offering a platform for true dutch product which can easily compete with any other techno movement! this is why you can now nod your head to the pounding productions of carlos rios

limited to 500 copies worldwide!!! after the overwhelming success of last years singles >wade in the water children< and >theres galaxies better<, the irrepressible bruno pronsato presents >at home im a tourist< as a taster in anticipation of his new album >why can’t we be like us<, out in january 2008 on hello?repeat

after the hugely popular conf006 (inc bitch fuck) comfortable records returns with three choice underground cuts. 76-79 (aka label owners vigo & tomski) show they are adept at creating 3 totally fresh and edgy house cuts that will appeal to a minimal or tech house floor. however if house/minimal is not energetic enough for you, check >six ten< for a record that llies halfway between techno & house & is layered with some very nice old school sounds. this ep really breaks the mold!! in the past when these artists have released tracks they have had a massive amount of praise from the likes of laurent garnier, rob mello, mr scruff, charles webster & fabrice lig. this release is a prime example of why they deserve such high merits & is destined to becoming just at large as comf006

sebastien leger s mistakes has undoubtedly been received as one of the coolest imprints this year. here it returns with the 3rd release, again in the planets theme : venus / jupiter. its easy to see why these two stormers are doing the business for sander kleinenberg, chris lake, pete tong and a host of other djs

they love it: laurent garnier, tocadisco, sian, tom wax, felipe, dr. motte, monika kruse, leandro gamez, oliver huntemann… + big in groove mag ! voodooamt aka patrick lindsey is frisbee artist since the very beginning and now, mearly 10 years since his first release on the label (ft 002 – 1/98), delivers 2 highlights why we asked ourself for a while >what is the a-side?<. finally we decided to have the first double a-side on frisbee and german groove magazine is already hyping both tracks in their last issue: >primetime bomb< & >ecstasy<. all that right after his current hit >wanton mood< on funkwelle, which also got rave reviews

a perfect example for the second category is the lnz013 track rezolution. even though limited on 500 white label copies, this hypnotic minimal trip became an incredible public success over the last two months. not only, but especially on ibiza, the feos & miroir production is regularly spinned by all important tech house djs. not set the dance floor alight or keep it ablaze with rezolution is a big faux pas the party crowd hardly could accept. due to the overwhelming demand for the lnz013 (and the fact that its sold out mostly everywhere) the label decided to press a second edition of this legendary tune. unlike the tria track of the limited vinyl, the flipside comes with a re-edit version of rezolution, produced by pascal feos studio mate chris wood. extended to 8.30 minutes of playtime, he retained all stunning sound elements of the original, re-arranged them, gave great new accents and lifted the track cleverly up to an even higher, minimal house energetic level. thats why we dont call it a b-, but aa-side track

deadmau5 mau5trap label returns, this time with 2 monstrous melodic gems from close friend and production ally glenn morrison (morrison recordings). tiesto featured contact on his brand new in search of sunrise cd, and its easy to see why. essential lush melodic housers, as supported by sasha, tiesto, kleinenberg, matthew dekay and many many more.

hot! massive rockin new breaks monster on the aside !! funkatech have been getting serious support all year and are dramarically building their rep and this single proves exactly why

the new label by antipop / telepopmusik!!! hot!!! why toxic girls and vampire lesbos are kissing on suspot while france is falling ?? the fisrt official refuge records release plays with versus, bootlegs, and covers, showing an eclectic juke-box with antipop, asia argento, archigram, etienne daho, fischerspooner, chef, nine inch nails, britney spears and these bones

the debut album of a master of the hardtechno scene, sven wittekind presents itself as a round and perfect work. the album is dark, hard, enigmatical and relentless – once more a proof why sven wittekind is a mastermind of hardtechno !!

the bear family is obviously not ashamed of their thick, flowing fur which might explain why the special k dance orchestra addresses a musical ode to kinky hotshorts a midpaced space boogie tune with robo vox and gyrating space gun sounds galore hotshorts is the perfect theme fur struttin around and displaying unshaven bear legs in all their glory. the flipside holds a darker, distorted piece of funk soaked house. let it grow
