austrian musican martin brunner aka madney moon scores with two refreshing tracks. with a wonderful catchy melody, the first track >is it hot< sounds quite imposing. patrick kunkel (coccon recordings) does a very nice remix and straightens the framework. the second original mix >is it what< is a powerful contemporary techno track with a dark concise vocal. its therefore no wonder that rocco caine does his typical deep interpretation of that track. the remix sounds monstrous and gives your spoilt feet all they want and love on the techfloor.

hot on the heels of the recent greg wilson/ray mang edits paper recordings have enlisted the remixes talents of two further hot acts in the form of faze action and brennan green.

new york, chicago, detroit? nop, boring shizzle!! just try miami!! sun, butts, flamingos and music! only an idiot can think this way! the bar is for sure the answer to the question: what is the most important part of the house? so what is more obvious than crowning a house-track with a vocal by the person who enhances life to the bar and to the party as well as the dj? luna city express wants to build a monument for the ones bearing this responsible task and say thank you, together with enliven deep acoustics. they want to pay homage to the person every visitors welfare depends on! so just imagine the bartender not only leverages your drinkable luck but also sings for you! not only sing, just utterly make the party to an unforgettable experience which makes the dancefloor to a trivial idea. everybody who is pleasured by this record is forced by associations which will make her or him hugging the person behind the bar!!

big with sven vaeth, francois k, karotte, dj hell and many more!

>france 2< deservedly takes the headline-grabbing attention-seeking lead track position: pure mediterranean melodrama with a bold approach to gut-wrenching operatic melody that vangelis himself would be proud of. on a further anthemic tip comes the atonal melancholic vocal symphony of >voci giaga<, whose delicately constructed layers of harmonic voices build up to form something very special indeed. >h2< meanwhile is an exuberant explosion of arpeggios underpinned by an insistent analogue club groove, whilst to finish, the heady, disorientating >oceano< promises to be a key component of many a dj journey over the coming months, leaving your faithful disciples just-the-right-kind-of-lost within the cosy dancefloor bubble. already homegrown heroes in the club scene of their native italy, with the >france 2 ep< the time has come for margots 21st century krautrock message to reach out across the rest of the world.

here we have yet another vinyl release to supplement the highly anticipated cos/mes album. while the first three singles boasted massive a-sides backed with incredible remixes, this release contains two exquisite album cuts deserving their own slab of vinyl. natural lifespan (acid orchestra mix) is a slice of pure bliss, a mid-tempo jam to which you can hug your friends as the sun rises. on the flip, i-bizan (build the progressive band) rides a stomping and tainted rhythm into a dark den of iniquity. pass the lotion

named after the bird that graces the cover of watergates latest mix cd the, >peacock ep< contains all the exclusive tracks from the mix compiled and blended together by club resident lee jones. the a-side is handled by matthias meyer and lee, who team up for a peak-time killer laden with warm chords. this one has already proved itself on watergates main floor by getting butts shaking on multiple occasions. >kreuzberg 61<, musically is clearly inspired by lees experiences in watergate and his home for the last 8 years in berlins kreuzberg district. the reduced tempo and warm melancholic strings are an audible representation of looking through watergates glass walls out upon the river during the wee hours of a saturday morning. wrapping up the ep, is the after-hour anthem collaboration between lee and daniel dreier, >lullaby<. the perfect track to hum on your sunday morning stumble home.

dixie yure is the incarnation of contemporary oldschool house music from seville. after some digital only releases it is about time for some haptic experience. with the 10“ record „show me satisfaction“ on berlin-based label fenou his sound is rotating on turntables for the first time. monotonous minimalism ain’t dixie yures world. the sound tends more towards 2step and builds a homogeneous and pleasant mixture with classical house elements and vocal parts. you just cant deny yourself dancing the >chicken dance< and stepping like hell! thanks to the funky improvisations extending over the whole track you wont get bored even after listening to >show me< for the hundredth time. the a-side is just fun - in the club as well as on your couch. you wont miss the low-pitched vocals on the b-side either as they are typical for the spanish producer. >satisfaction< is a little more reduced than >show me< but is enhanced with jazz elements such as pianos and saxophones. it shows that wind instruments in electronic music dont have to be annoying tribal elements. in this example acoustic instruments do not just get mixed up with house music but merge to one groove – absolutely rocking tune!

once again another masterpiece from the dynamic reflection squad in your face! this time its from the uk monster voidloss. the title track acteon is already an oldy and paul felt in love with it a long time ago. it was already digital released in 2007, but we asked voidloss if he wanted to see this on pure gold as well... and of course he wanted that! so why dont we put up an whole ep with more dancefloor killers of this man? grovskopa is always capable of delivering good remixes and so he did. this time something a little bit different then what you expect, but with this track he shows us what an open mind he has on techno. rolling crunchy basslines and smooth pads bring this track in a perfect vibe to set the tone for the night. moment of total emptiness is a more deeper and hypnotic tune, but will definitely bang your head on the dancefloor. mr. a. paul is going for the rework and came up with a really great uplifting and oldschool touch. perfect tool to use in your dj sets! all n all a superior release by this uk studio wizard. lets pray for more of this pure quality stuff and keep our eyes on the the future. the scene need more labels like this which reflects the current techno movement and promises loads more of that sweet stuff in days to come.. dynamic reflection will represent only the true spirit of pure techno, they will put only the quality stuff back on the dancefloor!
