played by sebo k, karotte... layo and bushwacka! are equally at home turning out summery housey affairs as they are peak time stormers, and >now is the time / the time was then definitely fits into the latter category. a double header, the loose concept behind the release is to represent the sound of the dancefloor now versus the sound from a few years ago. >now is the time< has its feet placed firmly in 2008 - a crisp, clean techno bassline, topped by hand claps, snatches of breathy female vocal, and full of an irresistible array rattles, whooshes and other indefinable sounds that the duo seem to pull from the depths of their imaginations. it breaks with some simple electronic sounding chords and a stirring martin luther king sample that makes this record so memorable. >the time was then< is based around that same sample, but gives a cheeky nod to a few years back, with a bassline and keys that wouldnt have sounded out of place on their seminal ‘night works’ album. it never goes too far towards nostalgia, though, and either would rip up a late night dancefloor

energie in bestform is glad to release the producer and dj tobias lützenkirchen. actually well known with admirable releases on labels like great stuff, blu fin, selected works and his own label platform b. the main track is called >afterhour is the pusher< and will - we guarantee that - not only >push< in the afterhour .... the bonus track >ketron< will turn every dance club - with its forward-pressing bass rhythms - into a tropical drum jungle. the two >afterhour is the pusher< remixes of flea and baby chris complete the record!

introvert (aka jukka varis) was born in northern finland in 1982. he lives now in helsinki, which is situated in the southern coast of finland. he has been making music for over 7 years, including progressive house back in 2004-2005 and his first own release from aurium records. the words >original<, >emotionally attractive<, >artistic<, >atmospheric< and >experimental< are the best to describe introvert’s sound. it gives people different moods and visions, something to listen closely to and to think about, and it works on the dancefloor too.

on side a ku bo presents his first collaboration with são paulo, brazil based mc fefe. on >turnerment< fefe rhymes in portugese about the crazy beat of ku bo and how it turns her on. the paulista mc, who also works as an acclaimed visual artist, has already collaborated with other bass music related artists such as al haca and is well immersed in the sound of future bass science. >turnerment< perfectly combines joey beltram basslines with an irresistible house groove, brazilian cuica sounds and a hands up in the air atmosphere

norwegian songwriter, guitarist and vocalist ane brun is a rising star. with two norwegian grammys for best female artist and song of the year in 2005, her most recent and third studio album >changing of the seasons< entering the norwegian charts at 1 and the swedish charts at 2 the future looks very bright for her. now brun has connected with dennis ferrers - objektivity. ferrer has gathered an international cast of some of todays leading house and techno producers to take the works of brun one step further. the aptly named >ane brun objektified< full length will be released later this summer here is the first single, a taster of what is to come - bruns >headphone silence< remixed by henrik schwarz. schwarz composed his remix initially as a live lap top piece, mixing it down under the watchful eyes of close colleagues ame. on the flip you find a dixon edit

phunklarique s edit is groove based, same as his amazing piemont works. strong bass and again with his incredible sense for shuffles and drumming in general while pierce concentrates on minimal house grooves reminding us of sebo k. or buttrich productions with 11 minutes playtime and an intense 3 minutes hammond break

we think this is the dirty work of the leeds freek! this just works! you know you need it!

timbee strikes back again. this time featuring spanish newcomer duo >aboga & alex font<. their track >excuse me< is a straight grooving tech-house monster that works on every floor. on the flip the label owners patric la funk & timo becker themselves deliver a stunning remix

the pairing of maziar namvars audio soul project and the highly regarded urbantorque label is, (in the words of idj magazine) a match made in underground house heaven.product of modern living is the second installment of this fine partnership following on from satellite a release that drew attention from a diverse collection of djs including danny howells, ben watt and pete heller. the three tracks on this ep exemplify the combination an unexpected fusion of disparate flavors that works a treat!! special rerelease

backdraft and slim blue are on da remix dutties for the bassrock crew, reworking 2 of darkus best works >jah know< and >dub jah<

nice price deal !!! medway is one of scenes best know names! his early outings on labels like hooj were the staple of pretty much every djs boxes a few years ago... he has now relocated to holland and here he teams up with sven hauck, who has pushed out some stell works of his own over the last 12 months. deep dirty throbbing house music.. sexy stuff!!!

stereogames is known for his former works on blackjack under the name of sonabilis (copyshop). he decided to create his own label. inspiration comes from detroit and german electronic scene.

an incredible ep with namlook exploring the edges of minimal techno and deep ambient, while the remixes are pepe bradocks most dancefloor oriented works in ages! macro delivers a stunning release by a man who has not only produced 3 collaborational albums with richie hawtin, but also runs the ultra influential fax label with an artist roster ranging from speedy j to bill laswell to klaus schulze: namlook is a true electronic pioneer in a league of his own. the track >subharmonic atoms< was produced back in 1995 and is re-released by macro as a long out of print electronic prototype on the edge of minimal techno and ambient. but dont think this is a retro affair: subharmonic atoms sounds incredibly fresh and proves it is as groundbreaking, innovative and timeless as jeff mills early axis works or hawtins concept1 series. entirely remastered from the original source and cut in unparalleled sound quality, it is available on a single 12inch side for the first time ever. the release is completed with nothing short but french remix master pepe bradocks triumphant return to the dancefloor. his versions of >atoms< are rocking upfront house burners, which his fans have been waiting for since 2003s intrusion ep. definitely one of this years hottest packages

bcc ft. robin hannibal of owusu & hannibal the new music for dreams signing (and gilles peterson faves) with their first 12inch release for the label and a fine one it is. yam who works remix duties on the a side with a fantastic house mix, while the flip features the superbly lush and sleek album track combiner in both instrumental and vocal forms.

pure hypnotic dope ! the 12inch opens with a blast of superlative dancefloor funk, >u can get sonar<. its immediately obvious that this track is the creation of someone who knows - as a fan, dj, record-seller and musician - what works on the dancefloor, what sounds good, and has endeavoured to make his record satisfy us on all counts. carried along by an unbelievably buoyant bassline, purring, deep house-style chords and crystalline percussion, the track climaxes in waves of synthesized strings. >upad aah< is a vivacious, skippy dancefloor track, its constituent bass and drum elements rounded and smoothed for maximum bounce, sharp, pressurized snares provide a glorious counterpoint, as quasi-tribal percussion, and airy african female vocals are layered over the top. the result is fresh, powerful and eminently danceable. >persuasion< is a deep, swinging club track. once again that warm bass is at the forefront, with clipped yet languid chords building melody around it as

on the flip, data takes us back ten years ago, with the techie curfew. a sly sample invoking the terror of a war torn citys attempt to enact a curfew sits perfectly before this one truly takes off. this is another cut that doesnt try to be too much, just establishes a serious vibe and works very well in the mix. sound artillery what a perfect name for this label. weapons for mass consumption, tools for the audio soundclash, tracks that hurt you. and make you come back for more!

the mini anniversary 010 belongs to newcomers solar & poppcke and on the remix-side alex niggemann. daniel solar, marc poppcke and alex niggemann are part of a new generation of german electronic producers, who have been heavily influenced by the musical developments of recent years... after some solo works, collaborations on remixes and sporadic contributions for various labels like ostwind & ostwind limited, sportclub and meerestief of course, their debut ep >useless beauty on meerestief ltd, is the beginning of a flood of releases, that are already in the pipeline. no question, solar & poppcke are hot!!

back to back killer selection and re works from one of frances hypest dj of the moment. smart re edits of these two hard to find slices of funk wax. original pressings reach stupid prices on ebay like sites... smiling is a belgium disco funk that very few know about. original version going from time to time very cheesy, it really needed a re edit to reach a much deserved club exposure. jammaster is a pretty sought after chicago funk classic, but strangely enough it got a very particular new jersey feel to it, even recalling some early blaze tracks... played and playlisted with the likes of dj cam, inflagranti, orest, pilooski...

energie in bestform is glad to release the producer and dj tobias lützenkirchen. actually well known with admirable releases on labels like great stuff, blu fin, selected works and his own label platform b. the main track is called >afterhour is the pusher< and will - we guarantee that - not only >push< in the afterhour .... the bonus track >ketron< will turn every dance club - with its forward-pressing bass rhythms - into a tropical drum jungle. the two >afterhour is the pusher< remixes of flea and baby chris complete the record!

jon gurd is back on a solo project, with the usual jon gurd style of using old school rave sounds with a tech and groovy combination that works well on the cooler dancefloors. tom neville - really good stuff. im playing both tracks but grass rots is probably my favourite. thanks slam! co / orde meikle: grass roots – very glichisco – quite intense, the chimes – love the groove – old skool stabs are nice kos: i am really into the chimes record. solid track and i love the old skool riff. definitely gonna play. james talk: the chimes is class mate, big room action

agile recordings is a new label, with a strong concept, the common idea is to promote and support quality music, from well known international artists and give the opportunity to new talented producers to release their original works. the first release is done by uto karem and rino cerrone

this package isbased on the classic of 88 to piano, a track originally released in 1991! the dub version is a bouncy version that explodes in the break, while the original works into a different way to that climax.

finest two tracker full of synth tricks & dynamic percussions !! the german duo of christopher bleckmann and hannes wenner join the hidden agenda family under their main handle misc. best known for their works on sender, klang, kompakt and early asthe alias niederflur this two track ep they offer up is sure not to disappoint fans of their music

taken from the forthcoming album !!knives was produced during the album sessions, but works best as a single for djs as its a massive club track. paul woolford has been the track playing in every set recently. this is the first single to be released from >the truth<, paul woolfords new artist album, and this is the only way vinyl fans can get hold of tracks from paul woolford presents bobby peru >the truth<. knives is purpose built for sound systems the world over. direct floor techno with some quick edits and quirky touches.

helado en globos is the main track for this release, this number has a bassline which is so funky and driving thats going to even make your grandma dance (expect bootlegs of this track with donna summer funzion ones). for the remix, we had no other than the pan-pot guys who kept the original flavour of the original one adding their special touches to the original recipe turning this track into a deep funky stormer. finally, we took one of funzions best works from the igloo back catalogue, his remix of qiks fall. the only reason we did this because its not just a filler, its killer. enjoy your >helado en globos<!

tobias lüke a.k.a. obi achieved success, knowledge and respect at an early stage – his connection with electronic music was set at the age of 13 where he started spinning and later developing his own craft. soon after appearing at the local decks he won a newcomer contest at the world famous fusion club, founded his label tekktribe and nowadays has grown to an established name for hardtechno, plays all around the globe and works with the likes of pet duo, andreas kremer, arkus p. and more. his first releases raised to the top of hardtechno playlists and charts !!

milenko subotic is the man for the second drehmoment. after his works for kill brique and some hot remixes he now found a platform to bring out his great driven technoid tracks

call me mr cold blooded takes things to a shockingly new level. king cannibal (a new moniker for seasoned producer zilla), uses the essence of drum & bass by the likes of limewax, spl, technical itch and re-works the sound into a breakstep epic. the 2nd track one hundred eyes closed is loosely dubstep but goes somewhere darker and more twisted...

mothership transmission #4… todd bodine has been one of our favourite producers for a long time so we are very excited to be able to bring to you this ep on mothership. todd always brings a swinging groove that works for both minimal and house djs and this release definitely delivers the doughnuts. side a, >secret edge< will turn any stale room fresh and get everyones toes tapping and asses wiggling. its got elements of detroit, chicago, and berlin all wound up into a really nice party starter. you can never underestimate a fun grooving track thats easy to mix and fun to dance to. side b, >back to back< is a submariners dream with bubbling water sounds floating and popping over a low funk groove. this is the track for when you want to take it down a notch without losing any dance-floor magic. its a real dreamy affair with a fat bottom end. thanks todd!

support comes from paul mac, ben sims, reynold, fabrice lig, russ gabriel !! a solid detroitish techno ep from franco cangelli. digging deep into his roots, he delivers 3 brilliant tracks that exemplify the machine soul of techno. >highway< pulsates with deep bass kicks, slowly evolves to a rhythmic orgy of beautiful detroitish chord layers. future classic deep techno. the darker and moody >things coming together<, works the dancefloor with classic 808 sounds, a square bassline, dark strings and a nasty melody. dbx meets detroit. >presumably so< starts off on a minimal trip slowly evolving into a funky track with a moving bass string, squelchy electrifying sounds and a sweet pad to add a nice deep touch. reynold then comes along with a mind shaking remix, funky chords, electro bassline, building up to an unrelenting dancefloor experience

bralli records, located in sao paulo/brazil, initiated its works in the year of 1998, having as goal to release, spread out and divulge brazilian high quality electronic music. here comes a great electro banging 4 tracker by frederic de carvalho

with a name more suitable to a private eye than a dj duo, guy noir is coming at you at full force. born out of a cross of diverse backgrounds and disciplines, the london based duo is spicing up your current techno aesthetics by adding a pinch of house thats sprinkled with the exact touch of sleaze. guy noir is gowers and georges black box that embodies their visceral secrets ranging from their hispanic and greek musical roots to their seductive sound that works the dance floors. raised within the emerging club scene of the late 80s

felix dickinson and toby tobias team up to great effect under the name of the mythical beasts on the newie from hector works. low slung funk bass and disco claps and synths make the original a sleazy discoid workout par excellence and as if that wasnt enough both q burns abstract message and nick chacona & anthony mansfield are on the mixes too. q burns mix is nothing to write home about in truth but chacona and chum do good things on their take, upping the tempo and aiming it squarely at the floor. hot!

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 !

both tracks sitting firmly in the techy house bracket that works so well for peak time, early on & those 4am moments... in other words a perfect 12inch for pretty much any occasion like the little black dress of the music world!!!

nu school of deep house ! baaz music has matured so much in a couple of years, it is now something very special, that appears simple to your ears but is indeed properly produced and incredibly deep. baaz gained as well with hes recent works hes very own sound signature that is really incredibly sweet, groovy, intelligent and properly swinging. we think that this is one of our pearl record and we are simply proud of pressing it on black wax. dont believe the hype, copies remains copies, the truth is in the original !!

two more excellent works from the wurst edits label. this time my cousin roy delivers the good with the electro italo disco tweaked class of frozen sitting on the a side while in for it is a more percussive dark disco cut that builds and evolves the longer the track goes on. top stuff.

deep grooving soulful, a little detroit/techy edged house number. martin solveig works the track into a tribalistic electrofunker. flip for 2 excellent greenskeepers mixes, who add their trademark sounds and chicago vibes. a must have

another two tracker from one of the few real technoproducers who have resisted against the minimal overkill. beside his recent works for clr and the continuing credo-series, alex found some time to throw out another high quality technopiece on reduced bpms, but lots of energy
