bottom forty s fifth release and second vinyl press showcases two french producers living and banging the drums in berlin, a long time bottom forty favorite, la fraicheur, teamed up with veteran producer and leonizer record label ownerleonard de leonard. la fraicheur, a producer of emotional and story-telling minimal techno, is seen here paired with leonard de leonard to turn up the heat on our first club-banger release track, -afraid of the groove-. la fraicheur and leonard de leonard beat the hell out of their analog elektron to lay out a relentless whipping melody that demands a twirling dance floor while a classic minimal bass line, rhythm and -she s uh-fraid of the groove- sample keep this track dark, dirty and underground. in a beautiful contrast to the heart-pounding a-side, flip to the b-side for -une place au soleil-. literally translated as -a place in the sun-, the saying is more about conveying the emotion of your hard work is putting you in a good place in life . -une place au soleil- is a gorgeous deep house track filled with teasingly melodic stabs and subtle hardware sounds that come and go, crashing on the record like powerful but soothing waves on the hot beach sands. while -afraid of the groove- may twist a peak-hour dance floor into a frenzy, -une place au soleil- will entrance them in the after hours, reminding dancers why electronic music is so beautiful and why dance floors can carry so much emotional release.

neon finger strikes back! release number four starring midnight runners is here! a full time ultra delicate piece of disco-funk and boogie where the indonesian band, headlined by munir, will take our minds away. a mandatory release for all weird funk lovers.

its certainly not easy keeping up with tuccillo. the relentlessly productive producer has been constantly firing off dancefloor bombs on labels as respected as visionquest, one, holic trax and 8bit for years, but never before has he turned his hand to an album. finally, hes decided to do the right thing and give us a deeper insight into his sound, and he s doing it on his own unblock label. fans will get everything they crave on a part of 20, as tuccillo indulges his dancefloor sound and keeps the quality level as high as ever. there are some choice guest turns from vocalists on tonight, feeling hot and again, but throughout the album tuccillos commitment to the stripped down, emotive house groove remains constant.
