billy dalessandro and brian ffar on 180 gram vinyl.

“breathe the machine” is the first installment of dojostudio and presents a musical world rich in harmonics, low frequency and melodic impact, yet with enough space in between to allow that perfect breathing room essential for powerful dance cuts. “breathe the machine” portrays a world that initially feels robotic, yet instills an organic fluidity known only to come from humanoid beings, breathing life into a system littered with code and coldness. billy dalessandro presents 3 original cuts, plus a rendition of the title track by mike shannon.

billy dalessandro is back with a new album! great news for 2014, because this one is truly special. the album is called boomers and reveals billy at his best, showing a lot of craftsmanship in multiple areas of electronic music.

brill four track minimal techno madness

soniculture, the lisbon-based label, proudly presents billy dalessandros 5th album entitled cracktime. this project forges a new generation of production style and sound design for billy as he cocks the shotgun of his latest experiment in electronic debauchery. cracktime sonically defines those innocent and naughty moments that each of us exhibit, in our own way, that helps to fulfill our lives with all those insane memories we carry with us back to the grave. thirteen tracks round out this ring match in a dub-infused, 303- injected, chicago-style bassd-out fight that lasts just about an hour. so sit back (or jack back) to the show, and remember...that if religion is the opium of the masses, music definitely gives us our daily crack.

soniculture presents the second and last volume of the >polis< remixes from billy dalessandros latest album, and what a way to end this project in style with four great floor fillers for the most demanding audiences. the ep kicks off with mobilees exercise one, who take >only your touch< through a ride of arpeggiated basslines and dark grooves only to melt later into the melody that is the heart of track, drifting into uplifting moments. an amazing result from this dynamic duo from berlin. americas own jason emsley, known for his releases on platzhirsch, takes a darker path down the techno lane and creates a mind blowing version of >in the red<, with his own processed vocals which end up being the core his message. from siteholder chicago, billys mate, brian ffar, creates a happy and playful version of >alphasex< fooling around with synths in ingenious ways. an amazing track filled with groove and originality that will bring only happiness to the listener. sonicultures label owner expander keeps the hypnotic feeling of >acidburn< but drives it over a stronger bassline towards a point where fine-tuned melodies take over and fill the soul with several sorts of feelings making it ideal for the mind and the soul...

soniculture has prepared a hot package for the summer with billy dalessandros new ep that is ready to hit the dancefloors. a true visionary in the art of developing new and sophisticated approaches to dance music, billy shows us once again his talent and plays around with new frequencies and soundscapes that blend neatly to form yet another masterpiece.

for our fourth release we decided to take one of our favourite tracks from the discos de lata catalogue and give it to some friends to remix it. the tracks is sour mood by xpansul and damian schwartz.on side a, the capo of the new sond from chicago, billy dalessandro adds all that funk he has, with that remarkable chicago flavour and a subtle touch of acid. a solid track that keeps the hypnotic vibe of the original adding a tension that takes it to peak time territory. on side b, spanish techno master, alex under, joins forces with super talented argentinean producer leo gruenbaum, aka gruenbox, to deliver a piece of strong funky techno. the deep bass and groovy percussions are the foundations for a progression of hypnotic elements that make this a track a sure killer. we love techno!

excellent remix package to the polis album by billy delessandro. incl rmxs by alexander kowalski, elias landberg, nhar and re.axis

support: steve bug, jay haze, someone else, mark henning, matt star, pan pot, agaric, jason emsley!!! 2009 has been an extremely busy year for billy dalessandro. on top of having recently relocated from his hometown of chicago to montreal, the year has marked his most engaging yet in terms of gigging and musical output. along with a successful three-month european tour, billy released a string of highly acclaimed singles, and his latest artist album (not to mention his growing catalog under the huge hephner and tyrone aliases). however, it should come as no surprise that the producer has saved the best for last.
>strombooty< (for details, consult your local urban dictionary) is the modern dalessandro sound, combining heady experimentation with dance floor prowess. the eps title track is a deep, yet explosive number that creeps in subtly like dark clouds on the horizon, before raining down a devastating thunderstorm over the speakers.
the latin-flavored >el tapatio< and super-deep cut >speak to me< make up the b-side. although the tracks represent different aspects of the dalessandro sound, the commonality they share is a thoughtful approach to dance music that much of the formulaic output these days lacks.

familiar billy dalessandro mover !! solid two tracker...

billy dalessandro comes around with three varied tracks ranging from dark house & outstanding electro to some kind of acid-techno. absolute convincing record.

incl hot billy dalessandro remix!!

following the success of last years >nitrogen 2 oxygen 1< ep for siteholder records and the recently released >filthy fibber< ep on uncut, the duo of billy dalessandro and daniel mnookin have teamed up once again under the slutbox moniker to deliver the >backseat driver< ep. switching up the rotation, the ep kicks off with los angeles based producer jason emsleys >lick it, smack it, rub it down remix<, a filthy number that no amount of sludge can adequately describe. a subtle, yet effective rhythm section keeps the dance floor busy while the dirty synth overtones grow larger and larger until they have conquered ones brain synapses. feeding off of the original vocal and adding some x-rated lines of his own, if pornographic techno wasnt a genre before, it is now. the original is pure slutbox at its best. deep bass, seductive rhythm, addictive loops, and a spanish guitar combine to make this one another club killer. as if you had a choice, please make your way to the dance floor - the night has begun. rounding out the vinyl release is st. louis via berlin dj/producer butane (a.k.a. andrew rasse). known for his widely praised work on his own alphahouse label, as well as top techno imprints dumb unit, num, and rrygular, butane has long been a friend of the siteholder crew and takes this opportunity to make his debut on the remix tip. deep, druggy, and hypnotic, butanes >percocet remix< is what one has come to expect from the late night veteran. whether its early evening, time to jack, or after-after hours, the >backseat driver< ep is an all-in-one tech fueled necessity

after having published more than 20 eps and two full length albums billy dalessandro arrived at the first league of worldwide respected producers. his third album >into the atom< can be seen as a milestone of the chicagobased musicians history. he publishes a mixture of chicago style funk and deep minimal electronic style. here are 3 gems born out of his virtuosity you cant miss

another bomb that will definitely not make it through airport security undetected. explosive kicks serenade a nasty acid line over a signature dalessandro-style vocal. this peak timer is no holds barred techno armageddon. new york based clink rec artist elon makes his debut appearance for the siteholder team with a storming remix. twisted effects, a unique take on the vocal, and a pulsating bass line define this hard-hitting approach. fearless in its pursuit and certainly without any room for prisoners, this re-working of >are you there< comes out of the gate sprinting and never lets down. another successful new york-chicago connection has been made. rounding out the ep, brian ffar follows up his highly successful >ballroom hustler< ep with a take on the single reflecting his cultivated production style. an atmospheric tech house approach reveals well-placed synths over the drawn out vocal from the original. but dont assume this is child s play, ffars kick drum isnt afraid to pummel a club systems subs. the avalanche inducing bass line that follows caps off this fifth siteholder record with a very clear message: >are you there< is serious business

yeah, billy delessandro double vinyl !! nothing to say.. its pumpin, its groovin, its jackin, its delessandro !! must have for all siteholder lovers

billy dalessandro – working as a multimedia designer during the day, the american with italian roots creates his music in his legendary dojo studios in chicago while releasing it mostly on german labels – which is not as paradox as it seems…. his productions, thought-through, fluid, rolling monsters that surprise with darkness and groove, are released on labels such as resopal, force inc, forcetracks, konvex-konkav, disco inc., relax, kompute and soniculture, as well as his own imprint siteholder, and make the dj and producer a much sought-after artist whose records end up in crates of well-known artists as diverse as mathew dear and john digweed.

clever beat construction with a slight minus & perlon feel, this fledgeling chicago label brings a minimal and hip shaking vibe to the masses. the brian ffar remix is dope enough to drop at your upcoming loft party. viva chicago

hot remixes with a great variety by tomas andersson, billy dalessandro and boris brejcha!! john andersson and johan emmoth aka zoo brazil caused huge reactions to their last two longplayers which rapidly became milestones in electronic music history. harthouse mannheim presents another piece of their successful journey with an astonishing remix – ep. harthouse gained names as thomas andersson, billy dalessandro and newcomer boris brejcha for the remix project – nothing more to say – listen!

played by: martinez, 2000 and one,tadeo, stare5, jeff samuel, karotte, matt star, x-pansul. cray1labworks have arrived to their tenth release. to celebrate, they have chosen none other than the copenhagen based theodor zox. thick, liquid bases spread over theodor zoxs >whats in a number<. the blips and crackles playfully dance around the base line while the main melody slowly comes into shape, creating a delicious danceable song strolling between minimal and sweet old school techno touches, following the path that cray1labworks have always laid. the volatile sound of >whats in a number< is overshadowed by the strong, mysterious, seductive synths of the minimal tech >feed me lies<. a song thatll make the ladies sway their hips on the dancefloor

>active agent< is the new groundbreaking composition from harthouse - highly epidemic and instantly causes addictive behaviour. the wisely assorted collection of artists is a clue for how high the bar has been raised and you can look forward to the adverse effects. phil kieran amongst others released magnificent stuff at soma with funk d void. his latest production comes on novamute and announces the second half of >active agent< with a wonderful playful minimal track. kiddaz fm labelowner holgi star and miro pajic fly the berlin flag and polish the dance floor with an excellent minimal techno track. you cant miss hardfloor at a harthouse compilation. the all time heroes spread their message: acid will never die! ..and prove that they take their business serious! axel bartsch runs his own imprint >sportclub< and shows his talents at kompakt and spielzeug schallplatten. he presents minimal house at a deeeep level for the second coup of >active agent< huge track!

detroit s new >soundshift< imprint makes a stunning debut with this intoxicating two-tracker. opening up is the soultek remix of billy dalessandro s smashing >don t sleep< release (which was found in the many sets of dan bell, ame, annie mac & pete tong last month) this mix is nothing short of brilliant and will certainly capture the hearts and sets of all those mathew jonson or loco dice fans out there. it has a subtlety that really creeps up on you and before you know it you re tapping your feet and zoning out listening to the intricacies of the music. truly minimal, there are loads of space within the track which is somewhat similar to the original but still a world apart, particularly in the fantastically eerie synth programming. in the forefront of the song is the shimmering and haunting vocal loop, >don t sleep< which has an almost hypnotic effect. (think richie hawtin in closer) the melody of the title is a delicate affair which sips cocktails in the company of some nicely chosen whirring and echoing noises. the build is effected so subtly it verges on melancholy but halfway through a rumbling bassline, appregiated melody and backbeat hi-hat pattern announce a funkier escalation!!
