oslo says hello to 2011 with a great ep again from one of the best electronic producers at the moment, guillaume & the coutu dumonts. we all know his eps on oslo, so we can be sure that he will not dissapoint. on the a side we find >praise to the beat maker< an amazing track with lyrics by dave aju, you will never take this track out of your mind. the rhythm is 100% guillaume. the second track of the ep >promess-lovin< gives the main melody to the release, and with some female vocals remains us one of the best old school house periods. the last track >all you have to do< is a very slow and musical track, wich keeps the line of the ep and at the same time add something different.

recorded in the winter/spring of 2009, first released in june 2009. at the time i called it my failed kompakt techno experiment, i started out with that minimal beat in mind but ended with something different. the title was the first thing i started with after watching some miss helen mirror on tv at the period, still love the title really. songs became longer and i discovered the delay while recording. this second record was the first one were i started settling on an sound of my own. some weeks after recording the screaming girls on the last track during their sunday afternoon youth group activity a baby fetus was found on their field with the mother being one of the girls

this is pure underground house music with detroit and chicago flavours!! tip !

a1: your last chance - very housey vibe on this one, with a heavy kick drum/snare combo. expanding synth line and very subtle percussive elements help the track build. it really kicks in when the vocals hit along with a funky ass bass groove. beautiful! a2: sailin 79 - slow paced track, centred on the vocal. great backing with bass, rising & shooting synth sounds. not so much for the dance floor, a great track for bar surroundings or a low key dj set! b1: youre welcome - smooth groove on this one, vocals are really well executed and give the track a great edge. killer track! b2: love is gone - super chilled track with a cosmic disco feel. waving synths, and echoed vocals create a very big sound. this track is encapsulating, pulling you into the groove for the entirety and sticking in your mind once its ended! brilliant stuff!

after an incredible whirlwind of a year lee foss returns to the culprit fore with >your turn girl<. foss is the labels most consistent and prolific artist with this ep being his fourth release, solo or as part of hot natured. it is safe to say, lee has become one of the pillars around which culprit is being built. the >your turn girl ep< carries foss signature hallmarks: melodic funk-infused basslines, vocal hooks that grab you from the off and a smooth electronic edge. lees incredibly emotive sound makes him stand out even in the current glut of soulful dance music washing over the global scene. your turn girl – the title track is an epitome of foss >ominous funk< style, playful yet with a distinctly sultry edge. yet another memorable r n b female vocal bit sits on top of some of lees own best synth work. and driven by a killer analogue bassline. >pyramid scheme< –bristles with the disco-inspired propulsive energy. an acid-flecked low end, that comes to the fore mid-way through, a swirling guitar sample, the crisply sharp drums add up to the releases, perhaps, most hands-in-the air moment. >cabin party< continues the themes lee explored with his mega successful hot creations ep. foss eschews the standard house beat yet again, opting for his most organic drums yet, stunningly conceived textures and melodies, with another pair of vocal hooks to die for. finally >warriors< has been a staple of many a culprit dj set for the best part of 2010. lees trademark combination of a terrific electronic bassline, and an unabashedly emotional sample work make for a deep house stand-out tinged with a sense of nostalgia.

groovy , jazzy tech bomb ... made in berlin

once again leng deliver with a lovely bit of heavy electronic stompery. tiagos >the source< goes straight for the dark end of the dancefloor and wallows in the smokey acidic enivirons of the late night moody corner ! with a punchy throbbing bass, hefty beats, tons of spacey effects and some awesome delayed hi hats to really mess your head, this is in the box for the strobe light moment. on side-b >mudds slow rave mix< turns up the acid a few notches, somehow gets even swampier in the bottom end and slightly more whacked out on the fx, add a lovely niggling synth line for a dark heavy dancefloor work out.

need to warm up? want to dance and you love house music? then your gonna to love this track. david guettas ability to supply a proper dance-pop stonker again evident with whos that chick. feel the adrenaline / moving under my skin / its an addiction, the barbadian songbird rihanna hollers over bolshy beats and swaggering synths, the studio trickery on her nonchalant vocals feeling colder than an ice pop on a snowy day. its a good job, then, that bopping along to this - and warming yourself up in the process - is pretty much impossible to resist.

southern florida, 1984. the sonarphonic sound was pioneered by james mccauley aka maggotron / dxj / basstech. originally produced for bound sound records in 1984, this is one of the earliest and rarest recordings from mccauley and marks the beginning of the underground miami bass electro movement. in the following years he recorded hundreds of tracks including >the bass that ate miami<, >temple of boom<, and >attack on the planet of bass<. maggotron is still active in the genre and is currently working on a new album. if you are unfamiliar with mccauleys musical adventure, let the sonarphonic be your guide. tip!!

one would be curious as to what a track such as this one would sound like. images and visuals floating through your head as you press play, the airy, angelic pad intro induces you into a trance-like state before soothing piano lines and a pitched-up vocal reminiscent of the early hardcore era takes you away. as the drums come in with a half-time feel, it is easy to imagine japanese taiko drummers playing their part. once the break takes hold, a short span of melodic heaven uplifts before the drums take control again.

mixes by antoine clamaran, tristan garner, olav basoski!! next big house bomb, redroche vs. armstrong... is it lance armstrong ??? no so sorry , its dave armstrong...

the seventh release on dva records comes from a young, unknown resident of manchester named gugu. staying true to the dva style, his two tracks are fine examples of todays hybrid funky house scene, maintaing the 4 to the floor drum patterns whilst drawing on a wide range influencesà and as it suggests in the epÆs title, is packed full of cuban flava. straight up music designed to make people dance. it wouldnÆt be right to get a dva release without a feature from the man himself, rinse fmÆs grimey breakfast show host mr scratcha dva. as a slight deviation from the norm û and in a way a return to the styles his earlier production û dva lays down a heavyweight slice of synth laden half step, defiantely one to pull your dirty face too. check it out and get back to us with your thoughts.

defqon.1 australia started a few years ago with the big dutch names and the upcoming artists from australia. this event has grown and the harddance music had a big boost downunder. this years anthem is made by headhunterz who is seen as one of the biggest names in the hardstyle scene! a pounding track made by scrap ...

we would like to say it was all part of a big bombastic plan… the biggest selling bearfunk artist, a top song, the prague philharmonic, 40 piece strings and some great remixes all to celebrate bearfunks 50th release, but alas, it was not! bfk050 is actually the 67th single release on bearfunk. the strings were done in the lunch-break downtime of a session in prague with strings-chappie, john bryan. make good music and occasionally, just occasionally, good things happen to you! so the knife-edge karma of indie record labels flows.

the lead single from the remarkable forthcoming album from maceo plex has arrived. >vibe your love< is a truly beautiful piece of house music which captures the essence and energy of the forthcoming album, complete with a sumptuous remix from wolf + lambs zev.

already played by: richie hawtin, pascal feos, someone else...

after the first praterei release that received great feedback allover and is now sold out almost everywhere, here’s the follow up. again two strong bottomheavy house cuts are featured. the artists wish to stay anonymous, so the names here are synonyms. all we can say that michael ferragosto is a producer that has also released for the chicago based mathematics label and 7 citizens is a promising up and coming producer from austria. 500 copies pressed only from this one!

incl rmxs by sascha dive & s catt!! it seems almost ridiculous to refer to zoe xenia as a label regular, when we are only on release number 12. maybe? but zoe is without a doubt, one of the our key artists. zoe first featured on bass culture with her >let the music play< ep in december last year, and whilst it may have been only our 4th release, it was somewhat of a definitive one..

obs.cur strikes back with another wicked release on this popular underground hardcore label! 4 vicious underground slammers in the typical (experimental) obs.cur style. very limited release (only 200 copies available), so grab your stock quick!!
