originally from hannover, mat.joe are up next on hot trax with a release that is straight up raw techno at its best. german production duo delivers two killer new tracks for a great hottrax double-header. nonstop nonsense is a massive barnstormer of a track, thats been massive for jamie jones its a bit of a beast! dat cream is a refreshing bass driven rib rattler of a track grabbing you by the scruff of the neck and shaking you senseless. joining forces to create a formidable duo are best friends matze and johannes. after bonding over a mutual love for hip-hop, breakdance and skateboarding they soon started to produce music together. having previously released on defected, snatch! gruuv and off recordings among others this release is their debut on the grittier hot trax imprint.

-light up- gives the name to this ep, the track builds around a funky bassline but gets deep and intense with dominating synth work leading to huge breakdowns while always keeping the swing. -street knowledge- jacks things up a bit more with a more agress

mat.joe sure had an impressive breakthrough ride last year including worldwide recognition, endless touring schedule and an impressive catalogue of tracks and remixes including acclaimed eps in off which quickly scouted them as core artists.

robosonic has been a pivotal part of off recordings roster, their releases being highly expected every time and usually meaning instant dancefloor melting magic. with a hip hop and techno background and adding many frequent flyer miles with worldwide gig schedule, the pair shows no sign of stopping. this time is no exception, cord and sacha get back in their creative roll of sample wizardry to provide two mouth watering jams. they once again prove their love for organic sounds and reivindicate the use of the turntable as an instrument, adding that old-school vibe to their trademark beats. macho madness is quite a trip, sweet rhodes over a bouncy bassline, great sample work adding guitars and an insane speech. as always, breakdowns are intense and its impossible not to dance to the groove!for the second track, robosonic joins another off family team, mat.joe and together they go deep into their hip hop influences again working the samples as only they could, a little disco flavor, a driving bass...all the ingredients are there for another instant classic and a respectful shout out to detroit producer legend j dilla, who left the game too early. r.i.p!

one of the most participative members of the off family, german production duo mat.joe, gets back on the release pipeline with a new exciting ep, this time collaborating with talented vocalist/producer/dj kevin knapp, already an important part of berlins underground dance scene.

time for another successful introduction to the off roster. meet the spirit of chi thanh, a berlin based multi talented beat wizard who brings us an outstanding debut ep. lets play starts out with infectious acoustic guitars that get in groove with a driving yet deep beat and bass combo.

incl remixes by nicone & hotbox
