marco bernardi was an obvious choice for who got to do the first album on frustrated funk. representing his most delicate compositions ranging from freaky minimalistic electro trickery to the sweetest and intense excursions in the field of what they use to call intelligent techno . we simply picked out his best moments along the line and put it all together for this brilliant presentation. with this piece of art we show again that we don t give a shit about new styles, trends and hypes. we just want to deliver a very sweet package that you will still be playing and cherish in 15+ years from now. this deluxe double vinyl album will be sweetened with hand stamped label art, hand made screen printed sleeves and pressed on pretty pink transparent vinyl to make this package extra special. enjoy!!

the viennese djs and producers smacs & patrick kong transformed their studio into a grow room. >no more experiments!< says smacs, when being interrogated about specific preparations for gigs outside of the austrian capital. their critics say: >on the long run the move towards self catering and regional consumer awareness will lower the production output of s&p<. the critics are full of shit though, because the opposite is happening. the recording booths new dedication >gives (you) wings< as a globally known austrian marketing slogan states. >growers< simply became their new single theme. of course dirt crew is around handling business when things get dirty in the techno scene. but instead of cleaning up, the two berliners mash the dope up with their favorite flavors and create special blend of its own, which will probably make it into this years finals of the legendary grand cup. indoor or outdoor, this tune will work!

supported by jimpster, danny howells, andy cato, ben watt, roy davis, luke solomon, tiger stripes,.. pooled music returns with another solid release from label owner, and all round house debonair, ian pooley. more class productions here, with two versions of the unique sounding the dark white and holes in my shoes , a great track that nods heavily to those classic early house productions. proceedings kick off with the lo slung funk of the dark white (juno mix) , sounding like the love child of adonis and moodyman this seemingly simple groove will slowly bury its way into your head.

in addition to our first artist album on connaisseur “estroe – elemental assets“ we present the first single “le flaneur” with interpretations by kollektiv turmstrasse our weimar homies christian rottler & deer. all 12 remixes will be released as remix album in digital plus a few remix extracts on vinyl. look forward to the next packages with remixes from audiofly, ripperton, steve rachmad, melon, beatpharmacy, joel mull, tedd patterson, patrick chardronnet, roberto rodriguez and nuno dos santos. le flaneur - this vinyl extract contains the original version of the track - a melancholic detroit-pop pearl with the lovely voice of miss kittin on top plus two remixes. the first remix is the mindbending kollektiv turmstrasse wald und wiesenreh mix that shows in an impressive manner that the two rising northern stars developed their trademark sound to even a higher and more grown-up level. with their “stumme apotheker rmx” the infamous duo christian rottler & deer give a lyrical answer to the original, its starts as a rather acoustic guitar tune and slowly morphs into a trippy and charming debaucher.

no matter what sounds you profess to be your dance music of choice, chances are that at some point over the last five years, you will have gotten your rocks off to matt edwards aka radio slave. in that time matt has remixed countless tunes for an incredibly-wide selection of notable labels. to boot, his touring schedule must be almost painful. so it was with great pleasure that om was able to enlist his talents to compose a tune especially for our 15 year anniversary compilation. to cut straight to the chase, orchestrating maneuvers in the dark is a rhythmic deep tribal techno groove - obscure, dissident and crunchy - with a breakdown that dissolves into thin air - only to strangely and magnificently re-materialize into his funk-induced groove.

as the days get darker so shall the music, so on that note we welcome back the fold moscows own polymorphic with the ever turbulent rock on ep. this time out polymorphic delivers the goods with 3 new tracks, rock on, scream & move faster. the ep also features a remix of the title track by marseille who also had a hand it turning out proxys raven last year. this ep is not for the feight at heart. both mixes of rock on tear things up with a decidely old school electro undercurrent while keeping things noisy and agressive on the top end. and there s only one thing we can really say about the last two tracks because they are that scary... scream will make you move faster.

dilla would surely be proud! and so would probably theo and moody too. theres a new cat from michigan down with the raw fusion roster. his name is kiyoshi shelton and will, with a 150% probability, hit both the hip hop and soulful house scene large! his 3 track debut ep on raw fusion starts off with a real smooth hustlin deep house tune with parallels drawn to the eminent new york producer, dj spinna or even west londons own soulful heroes restless soul. the flipside takes us down memory lane with some real heavy detroit hip hop bangers, both of them with a nice soulful touch. their heavy and the tough and wicked lyrics are least as sharp.

die nächste kts strahler ep , nun auf diynamic music !!! they have come a long way…. remixes for hot chip, releases on cocoon, and part of the diynamic family from the very beginning. christian hilscher & nico plagemann, better known as kollektiv turmstrasse. they return with one of their finest tunes to date. always loyal to their own label-mission - music wins friends (musik gewinnt freunde), this new release upholds this principle! with this new ep, they once again confirm that they are one of the very best in their class. and we are certain it will win them many new supporters for sure!

a classically-trained jazz virtuoso and national rock n roll hero in argentina, gutis double 12inch pack for desolat will leave you in no doubt of his ability to twist a snaking groove into something echoingly hypnotic. the tracks contained here are already a favourite in the record boxes of artists like loco dice, carl cox and marco carola, while gutis life story could itself be the subject of a story by jorge luis borges: >i leave to several futures (not to all) my garden of forking paths<. just two years after his first live sets in europe, desolat is proud to present gutis las cosas que no se tocan. the beats follow guti across continents: mr good vibes was composed in a hotel room in stuttgart after an argument with a friend, while the serious dancefloor vibes of sasa, the hustler and ieuuu were channelled in martinez studio. ieuuu and the hustler feature slices of glamorous, haunting vocals by jayson walker, a british singer that guti discovered on myspace. and sasa boasts gutis own vocal touches. meanwhile, the track aguanile is inspired by one of his favourite melodies as a child, one that he’s collected many versions of. the last track on the release, el campeon, reaches a bittersweet ending in the wide open space between percussive trills and a cut-out refrain, inspired by gutis favourite latin storylines of broken hearts and pain.

a project from spain that was delayed cause we simply lost contact with the artists at the point of signing. the duo seemed to have strong bonds with a spanish clique of the notorious central american gang ms-13. sadly enough, the main producer is in lock-down for a crime committed in the us and therefor we never had the chance to finish this project. it will now be released (finally) as part of the limited when insanity slips in series with a handnumbered screened printed sleeve. the music is pure electronic chaos (think ultradyne). pure analog terror from a project that already ended before even getting signed.

detroit, 1993. the burden brothers, known for their octave one project and 430west record label, start a new sub label called direct beat. it was created to release the techno electro sounds of inner city detroit. in 1995 the label was in full effect and released music produced by friends such as tommy hamilton, keith tucker, mad mike banks, will web and them self.
now 15 years later we know that direct beat was one of the big influences on how electro and techno is today. together with underground resistance, axis, m-plant in detroit and some like minded people in europe and artists such as drexciya, aphex twin, autechre and dopplereffekt it changed the way people looked at techno... it broke away from the dominant 4/4 kick and brought back the funk and emotion that disappeared once house and techno became popular and mainstream music in the early 90s.
we are happy to bring back direct beat records by making some of its classics available for a new generation. this is a part of techno music history we may not forget about! especially in these days that people consume more and more of the format tracks. this shows that emotion, passion and energy creates much more then just a dj tool... it creates tracks that become part of peoples life! and not for just one or two months in your i-pod... but for the rest of your life in your record collection! timeless classic collection... must have!

>seleccion natural< is a project made by the cream of spanish techno, this four part work has seen the light on different labels and now its time for warm up.
oscar mulero delivers the original parts and version for this tune, reworked and revisited by the rest of the partners in crime: christian wunsch, exium and reeko, each one giving their own vision on the noises made by oscar.
original mix kicks off with broken rhythms, crunchy and industrial like, with a heavy synth line approaching till sweeping drones and abstract textures bring to an epic breakdown that will sure destroy more than one bass speaker. another energetic piece of intelligent dance floor techno.
wunschs work is more direct and 4x4 based, taking the synth line from the original and adding detroit flavoured stabs and sharp claps to make a massive techno tool.
exium offers a completely different vision, using the drones and textures as starring, plus arpeggiated synths and baroque percussions fills the arrangement. energy is the word for this remake.
closing release reekos version recreate the spirit of the original, with broken drums again, using the synths on a clever way, extending the arrangement longer on an epic development till the bass drum comes in after 3 minutes of metallic madness. the ultimate release of a series on the most eclectic way. absolute quality.

mike minds only previous release, >acid machine<, has been tigas most played record since it was made. a full-time turbo employee, he has spent the past few years getting his brain around making techno, and continues to impress us with his output. his debut ep, >resonate<, is something of a departure for our label, and one we are very proud of.
its amazing to have this kind of music coming directly out of turbo hq, it nails a sound that we have always tried to cultivate. minimal without being boring, trippy without being predictable, unafraid of melody, and with just enough analog imperfection and warmth to it.
both of the remixers we chose represent different sounds in techno that have influenced mikes sound.
1: sophisticated italian groove*
giorgio gigli is an italian minimal-trance maestro, an incredibly modern renaissance man who is also a trained sommelier.** he is rising in the ranks and catching up in profile to his occasional production partner, donato dozzy. hopefully we will have more of his tracks on turbo soon.
2: m¦n¦m¦l
hobo is a fellow canadian best known for his excellent work on m¦nus. rumor has it, he borrowed richies quad-macro template file to finish the final version of this remix... whatever he did, his second effort came up huge, this mix is excellent.
enjoy!
thomas von party
* i have to include the word groove in every turbo onesheet i write, its either that or washing my hands constantly.

after surprising belgium and the rest of the world with their >zoopah dupah< and >heads up< eps, sound of stereo is back with a new, fresh sound best described as >something you should hear for yourself<.
in the past few months sound of stereo has been all over the place. not only have they played every large festival and venue in belgium & holland, their tracks have also been picked up by big names such as bloody beetroots, steve aoki, mstrkrft, armand van helden, crookers, congorock, jokers of the scene and many, many more.

support from the worlds finest djs and artists such as pier bucci, argenis brito, butane, maetrik, gregory shiff, ambivalent, and id, barem, and noah pred.
this four-track vinyl is an absolute must have for those who love to play a chugging, driving style of minimal and techno. produced by barcelonas pablo bolivar, >looking for a shape<, pushes the depth and groove that he is known for, but in a more aggressive yet subtle way. the original doesnt allow one to breath with constant changes in percussion and amazing flow. his >phase two< track will annihilate the speakers in clubs with deep bass and is a sharp, tightly wound percussive masterpiece.
the remixes offered are by monkey brothers, who take a very different turn with the track and offer a soft vocal and is perfect for the dance-floor as it delivers a strong pop for those later in the night moments. finally, the last track on the record is hidden recordings owner deepak sharma + dieter krauses interpretation of the original. they have created a more slowed down, druggy, groovier version of the original. its not quite as smooth as the original and thats a good thing as the extra glitch is great for those who need more punch in their sets. there is something in this release for all kinds of djs.

kraken are rolling again, with their second release in as many weeks (check out krkn009), and its good to have the denmark based dons back! very little is known about a side artist and la resident jaybird, but im sure plenty of people will be on the hunt for info after this little number drops. absolutely relentless, crushing dubstep music, a refreshingly nasty little number reminiscent in atmosphere to one of krakens earliest releases eye of the demon by wolfman (jsl), this tune is currently tearing up clubs worldwide, with support from 2000f and notably featuring on hatcha & crazy ds kiss fm radio show, you re gunna love this one! legendary kraken artist jsl pops up on the flip with a brand new beat, kept relatively under wraps this one comes out of nowhere and smacks is straight round the chops like kimbo slice! act quickly on this one, it wont last.

vinyl only release of this playmonster! we will manufacture 500 copies of this picture disc for planet earth. strictly limited. there will be no repressing of the picture disc!

limited to 500 copies! hot on the heels of this years maxi single, erol alkan and boys noize proudly present the stunning chilly gonzales piano rework of waves. the legendary entertainist has been a long time friend of alkans (he was also the only performer to play his london niteclub trash 3 times during its decade long existence) and has currently been putting the finishing touches to his boys noize produced next album, set for release next year. released november 23rd on an extremely limited edition 10 inch of 500, the piano rework comes backed with a spoken word episode from chilly explaining how one would translate a club banger into something your grandfather could get with! fresh off his guinness world record performance (27 hours, 3 minutes and 44 seconds), chilly will also be appearing at a londons la pigalle as part of a residency every wednesday throughout november for a series of piano talk shows, each featuring a cameo appearance from friends.

supported by monika kruse, adam beyer, jakob hilden, dave seaman, laurent garnier, kiko, john digweed, nic fanciulli, barem, chris liebing, danny tenaglia. yes, the world can be a cocktail and kaiserdisco are surfing on a wave of success following their track espandrillo. espandrillo made it into the richie hawtin us bus tour 2009 chart and has been re-entering charts worldwide for numerous times since. we think that with amalfino kaiserdisco will be hitting the top 10 charts of many dj s again. amalfino is a strong driving percussive track that builds on child vocals, creating a bit of a fairy-light atmosphere within a massive production. bailetteo is a track that can be understood a bit as a continuation of amalfino working with similar vocals but has less of a peak time formula. with >carachillo< kaiserdisco have added a cool and deep, housy track with indian vocals and samples, which could be cool for the house community.

aka manuel tur & langenberg (millions of moments / ovum) welcome and hello to the first release on mild pitch, the newly launched label from essen, germany. founded by manuel tur, dplay and langenberg you can expect tons of groundbreaking and earthshaking house music on this label in the future. the first release is called >this feeling<. produced by essens finest, ribn, this tune is what house music should be all about. ribn is a project of manuel tur and langenberg that sort of happened by accident. after some productive jam-sessions in their studio they discovered that both shared a passion for deep and dubby techno tracks and all of a sudden they had their first releases on styrax leaves, millions of moments and ovum. a stunning new ep on mule electronic will be released very soon. >this feeling< is a deep, chord-driven track in the tradition of global communications infamous >the way<, that with its enormous vocal loop and warm harmonies grows constantly to a catchy tune. with no doubts this track is a real peaktime smasher, which became obvious when being played for the first time at mild pitchs legendary >slow club< parties in essen. the flipside includes the brilliant >rapidsnare mix< of this feeling

we are proud to welcome tobi as part of our nachtstrom family and to release his first ep on our label.

brand new intrusion! the first killer twelve of 2009 and the perfect way to soothe the post nye hangover. the title track >seduction< is an epic beauty as deep as the sea which does exactly as the title suggest, a sort of seduction of sound if you will, so immersive you could swim in it’s three dimensions. the bass line is so deep you can feel the vibrations in jamaica! the song soars along and in minutes reveals its magical analogue frequencies as shards of blissful chords sail around your speakers in a full spectrum panorama affair so easy to sink into. next up is “silence” leading us into ambient territory for a short but sweet three minute excursion which i could only imagine as a soundtrack while floating in deep space. the release comes to a close with cv313’s near 12 minute rendition, a beautiful dub house soundscape filled with tribal rhythms and gorgeous atmosphere recalling moments from echospace’s landmark album “the coldest season” on modern love. this is music which clearly focuses on every fine detail, filled with loads of space and bass and the analogue warmth we’ve come to love from the echospace signature. as with all things echospace this is severely limited and is pressed on to beautiful coloured vinyl.

bodo elsel has only done a handful of records and the two that i have known and loved since 1998 were put out on playhouse, the excellent housey sister-label of mighty klang elektronik. one track in particular, discount baby, has always stood out in my mind as a high water mark in the sacred art of groove (you may have heard of it). punchy accents and resonant bass layered with trippy vocal loops, its dubby acid house of the highest order, made by a mysterious german lego-master, who the a&r team of mike mind and thomas st shindig managed to coax back into activity.
it only took bodo a year to answer mr. minds email, but he eventually delivered three amazing tracks... >haustier< revitalizes piano house. >mai< is incredible, and >mein haus< is one of the top few all-time expressions of the greatness/meaning of germany, putting it in the fine company of the autobahn, sven väth and christmas-market schwein. nice wibes!!
the icing on the cake was that bodo made it very clear he wanted no part in royalties or any of that business crap... he just wanted 42 copies of the record. yes. 42.
we were so inspired by all of this that we decided to put this record out in a different way for us that just feels right this time.... if you want to find out just how good the >mein haus ep< is, you will have no choice but to buy a copy of the 12 inch because this one is a vinyl exclusive!

love from montreal,
thomas von party

mothership transmission 027 – maetrik the >space chronic< ep was the biggest selling record on mothership last year and for good reason. maetrik has an incredible knack for innovative and original sound design. he is also able to package these sounds inside great arrangements and very dj friendly beats. this is what really separates his records from the rest of the sound design experts. >show me< is the perfect example of maetriks amazing talents. after several minutes of a super funky techno groove (2 things that dont usually go together) we find ourselves at the drop. and this drop is one of the best we have ever heard. it sounds like an angry wasp is flying full speed through the inside of your brain. the riff will melt your mind. >simpleman< on the other side is a great example of maetriks versatility. you might be expecting a hardcore techno bit but instead we hear a very groovy, almost reserved jazz techno fusion joint, but still with the heavy beats to keep it real for the clubs.
