retarded house music from one of the originators in chicago! once a&r for trax record and the man behind some of the rarest chicago house records on this earth, uttu present 3 raw as fuck real chicago jackers! vinyl only!

co founder of one of our favorite labels of the moment how to kill detroit, knocked us over with his own trax recently, so we had to do a release with him. shady p brings us some prime detroit techno sludge with this ep.

cestrian, the darker and more fiercely electronic incarnation of ali renault (dissident, cyber dance, human shield) provides the suitably titled * annihilator* for future flashs second release. witness relentlessly driving, pure electrical energy, biting 606 percussion and raging 101 basses. perseus trax provides the remix here, letting moody pads and screaming machines weave their way round a slightly more jacked drum palette as boiling acid arpeggiates.

supported by animal trainer, chris fortier, ame, joseph capriati, paco osuna, and many more

autoroutes ii by pamplonas iii3s (aka supersobresaturado) is the soundtrack for a 21st-century trip interconnecting continents and generations of acid-house lovers and ravers. this record is a hard-driving journey into (ph)uturistic sounds that takes it back to the old school. iii3s knows that the best road-trips begin and/or end in chicago (which is, after all, the start-point of the legendary route 66) and he knows the start-point of any journey into acid-house is chicagos phuture, the legendary masters whose *acid trax* created the genre in 1986. and so he is humbled to get remix support on this special edition vinyl release from none other than phuture members lothario lee, dj spank-spank, and ron maney aka dj skull.

fly by night music welcomes giorgio luceri back to it ranks for a cool dose of insightful analog house trax, this time deploying bu-mako recordings’ boss jenifa mayanja to share her dreamy vision of luceri’s ‘love is a storm’.

lakehead returns to nabla for a second release by evolving his rendition of unearthly ambient pads with a tasty three track ep. two parts testimonial, one part interpretation, this record emulates ‘90’s groovy techno with modern melancholic keys tantalizingly hovering over fog drenched surfaces. the a-side sees us start with ‘1991,’ an assertively murky tune that immediately intoxicates with the introduction of keys that manage to invigorate and remain melancholic. following bewitching synth work, a throbbing energetic bass line pieces this number together while releasing suppressed emotion. a true anthem! on the flipside, nabla welcomes zaphod salmon to the fore with a well-taken, minimalist approach in remixing ‘1991’. by sparingly using snippets of hi-hats, claps and snares, zaphod creates formidable tension in an onrushing build up. this mixture of harmonic sounds sensibly reintroduces key elements of the original in a sensation shrouded in suffocating haze. ‚workout trax’ maintains the straight-faced groovy vibe with intermittent bleeps and filthy cymbal work whose jacking undercurrent will keep your feet moving. with its rhythmic nature beat, ‚workout trax’ represents machine funk at its finest. like the moon the strength of its gravitational pull will create a powerful tide swiping unsuspecting subject towards the dancefloor, whetting your appetite by precisely ending when the hypnotic swirl begins to form

next up on titanic city, needs no introduction, nigel rogers aka perseus traxx has been a staple part on most record bags, a man dedicated to performance outside the box, has produced one of the greatest releases we will surely drop all year. some kind comments in our direction had to surly be returned with a request for a release and did he deliver. nigels first question was *what do you like* - *well we love your m>o>s, bunker, photic fields, snuff trax material*, he returned with a little bit of all. i am not gonna give the whole soaring pads, scraping percussive smears or the frenzied synth lines. this is perseus traxx he always delivers!! there is a rough and raw diy feel to this music that makes it jump out of the speakers and arrest your attention, as is always the case with titanic city.

dm003 gets the black maths series off the ground. black maths is all about the most introspective of the rhythms that can get the dance floor on fire. one artist per side displaying their separate musical universes with one common link: mystery. a mystery that goes from placid to oppressive, sometimes even bordering on unnerving. black maths is above all an exciting journey through sound.

hailing from the rank depths of sf bay area back-alleys and only the grittiest of rundown nightclubs and dive bars, a taste of dj milanesa especials sleazy magic is finally here for the world to behold. fellow yay area freak and veteran fan of all things slightly askew for the dance floor, dave aju, managed to get dj milanesa onboard in the studio for this nasty ass jam of the highest/lowest order. chili dog surely finds its inspiration in the classic dance mania cannon of raw shit-talking party-rocking house trax, but ajus unique knob twists and turns here and there on co-production steers it clear into 2015 - the first wildly oversexed dance move anthem of the year is here, and hopefully only the first of many: if youre hungry double up, everybodys

this is the fourth release on the 6-volume surgeon reissues label, srx. originally released on ideal trax in 1995, dynamic tension ep established themes that went on to become central concepts to much of surgeons later work. it also marked a refinement of his sound that lacked none of the intensity of earlier releases.

lehult is back on the roll after living the rockstar life that naturally follows a sold out debut release.

behind the next release on meant records are italian duo boot & tax, a relatively new pairing made up of claudio brioschi and cristiancroce. here they serve up three great originals baced with a stellar remix from alien alien. before now, boot & tax have released two extremely well received eps on jd twitchs optimo trax and have also recently had their music licensed to erol alkans fabric live 77, so the pair are really on the up.

the detroit music community has outposts in nearly every major city, and vancouver, british columbia is no exception. this ep represents the connection of two such artists, detroit native, josh garrett, who currently resides in vancouver and runs the subspec label, and rennie foster, a stalwart of the underground, who has spent a quarter of his life in tokyo, but born in bc and now living back there, in vancouver. rennie has released on a myriad of detroit labels, such as transmat, teknotika, soiree, subject detroit, wallshaker, and motech. josh and rennie met in vancouver, only since rennies recent return, and realizing they were of the same tribe, immediately began to collaborate on a number of projects, now including this limited run, double a-side, record, chalk full of dj friendly techno trax, firmly rooted in the motor city sound, yet unique enough to be a contributor, not just another imitator.

the bodyjack label returns with a bang and a split ep with the man himself and fresh talent soundbwoy killah. hot on the heels from ep s on unknown to the unknown, his clone co-run bodytrax label and a remix for jimmy edgar s super hot ultramajic, bodyjack is on fire right now. not much needs to be said about this, other than shake that ass is an unapologetic main room banger with a rough bassline and cheeky vocal. also comes with an instrumental version for the heads. soundbwoy killah has been turning heads this year (if you have heard his cheeky edits online you know what we are talking about). this brand new artist drops us 2 of the rawest jungle-fused underground party trax you ve heard this year and this is just the start for this bwoy...heavyweight tracks for the floor from the bodyjack crew. support from: jackmaster, james zabiela, claude von stroke, huxley, eats everything, shadow child, la4a, monki, serge, tiga, dj haus, serge and many more.

we are pleased to announce the release of dr burisch by perseus trax on crimes of the future. after releases on bunker, mos & chiwax (to name a few), the ep is a four track soundtrack to some forgotten alien abduction documentary... maybe. starting off with rainy tuesday and its skipping pitch shift melodies, and followed by lotus protocol and its almost richard d. hook. on the flip we have the title track, slow and building, very much the theme of the piece. the ep finishes with electrical surge, and its static crackle of radio interference and damaged power lines.

the first release of the year from hot trax comes from the german duo raumakustik, with jamie jones on remix duty. having had recent releases on a grain audio, ipoly & mangue records, raider is their debut on the hot creations subsidiary.

ashville residents oliver dodd & grey people team up for two cuts of razor sharp acid. oliver released his first record on acacia in 1995 and runs the konstructure imprint while grey peoples work can be found on cgi, proper trax, mystical disco and cult trip. both tracks were recorded 100% live. this record launches clear, a new label based in chicago dedicated to releasing subterranean electronic music from between the coasts.

the new bomb on echocord colour comes from brendon moeller. brendon already did releases on echocord and echocord colour before, also on his monikers echologist and beat pharmacy. words from the artist: much in line with the label aesthetic, i set out with these trax to explore the dubbier hypnotic side of techno music. my goal was to present 3 trax that could be played at different times of the evening because ttheres nothing like giving a dj who has to carry a bag of vinyl around the world a record where each track can be played in one night! of course, the question rremains, are you a dj that wants to play 3 trax like this? if yes, buy this now.

not since edward iii rolled out his cannons on the french battlefield during the 100 years war have we seen such shock & awe response to fresh, terrifying and complete weaponry. many of you will already know the name of tx connect from his previous sides on dabj, not to mention cuts on l.i.e.s (w/ willie burns), bad mums and adelaide soundworks. the three tracks present here for his first bonafide dabj solo outing are no-nonsense jack trax strictly for the vagabonds, rogues, sages and full-on midnight wizards. if you were to drop this fizzing slice of wax into a two-litre bottle of coke, it would level your whole fucking town.
