having released his critically acclaimed third album �>personality�< earlier this year, scuba has announced news of a brand new single �>talk torque�<. the one-�sider �>talk torque�< will be released through hotflush as a limited edition red marbled vinyl and will coincide with the world premiere of scuba�s live show on november 3rd in london. not one to rest on his laurels, scuba has been busy this summer djing at countless european festivals including off-�sonar, sw4, hideout, primavera, closing bestival on the saturday and making his debut at ibiza. hotflush recordings has blossomed into a veritable juggernaut in underground electronic music, releasing everything from techno (sigha, george fitzgerald) to some of the most experimental and important music of the past few years by artists like joy orbison, untold, mount kimbie and sepalcure. having cemented his place at the cutting edge of electronic music with �>personality�<, scuba now turns his attention to the live scene. scuba�s debut live show promises to be nothing short of spectacular and is not to be missed.

jack dixon follows a string of critically acclaimed releases for apollo (r&s), take and losing suki (hypercolour) with his debut outing for hotflush. influenced by the sparse atmospherics of wolfgang voigt, the playful intricacy of autechre beats and the off-kilter grooves of uk garage, the berlin-based producer is unconstrained by genre or place, pioneering a modern, progressive sound that has already garnered him a glowing reputation. in turns colourful, ambient, melodic and driving, his new ep feels right at home on scubas label. beginning with a deceptively clean and minimal rhythm, >e< slowly gives way to lush glacial drones, skittering beats and huge euphoric drops to form a bold production that sits somewhere between the early morning techno dancefloors of berlin and the murky sweatbox raves of late-night south london. on the flip, he delivers the soulfully taut >find shelter<. warped vocals weave in and out of an insistent, jazzy house groove, backed by a tapestry of glitches, vinyl crackle and live drum flourishes. it all leads to one of the most delirious and ecstatic drops you will hear this year.

after an outstanding pack of 12-inches for scubas hotflush recordings, london dj and producer sigha a.k.a james shaw confidently returns to the label with his heavily anticipated debut lp, >living with ghosts<. for this offering he presents twelve impressive techno and ambient productions and fuses his love of classic uk techno with the contemporary sound that currently pulses through berlins berghain. >brood<, an additional track not included on the aforementioned album, will be released as a very limited vinyl-only 10 inch, and will never see the digital light of day. the acid-licked scene couple<, a track from the lp, accompanies it.

it is a cold dark winter – snow is lying everywhere. simon12345 and the lazer twins are heading up north into a little wooden house in the northern parts of denmark. they will live there for the next weeks and build up a temporary studio in this secluded cottage. simon has got a handful of sketches with him. musical states of mind and conceptual games he developed over the last years. basically the idea is to develop something truly unique and powerful – although none of them knows how that will sound exactly or what will happen in particular during this time. it is not even clear who plays which instrument, who will do what…nothing is set. the only thing clear is that they have things to say, things that have been burning in them for so long now. tell me. how can (mostly) instrumental music suggest a way of life? how can you criticize without pointing at something particular? how can music transport you into place of quietness and self reflection?

badance is a deep house and techno label based in paris, france. our label is for us a platform for beauty, dance, experimental, and every nuances that the spectrum of music has to offer.

support by noir, sascha braemer, tiger stripes, m.in etc. while its getting colder outside, miyagi sends us beautiful melodies for the autumn. you will bet! but such as love the new rennbahn has got a lot more to offer! weird world is a dreamy & floating deep house track, which will levitate you over the dance floor. warm melodies combined with a heavy bass line make sure to catch the mind of the people. the remix of jaxson & david keno let disappear your thoughts in the straight beat and the floating and hypnotizing bass rhythm! this remix is anything but weird. on the b-side, medusa is waiting for you with deep sounds and a beautiful piano chord in order to take you on a journey through her walk of fame. dont you dare to look at her cause her dreadful sight will turn you into stone. with oliver schories remix you will discover an interplay between deep basses and beautiful highs accompanied by his typical piano sounds which finally come together to one gorgeous climax at the end of the track.

after their sure-fire succession of great releases dam swindle end up on the excellent freerange imprint. and if you like the words deep along with atmospheric then this will most definitely appeal to you. from the opening title track with its lush, moody nu-groove styled pads and thunderous hand-claps these three productions simply ooze class and intensity in abundance. next is >gotta know< which rewinds back to classic house sounds and injects a sense of melody into the already swinging rhythms and punchy, detroit bass. which is then followed by >brotherman< and yet more in-depth moods, this time accompanied by jazzy, scat styled vocals for added diversity. finally we have wolf music main man krl stepping up to remix brotherman and a rather sterling job he does to. making great use of the vocal krl brings us a slowed down version with his trademark shuffling drums and a dynamic arrangement. piano stabs and a cheeky boogie synth sample all help bring his own sound to the track and round off the package perfectly.
