regular pressing on black vinyl, housed in reverse-board gatefold jacket.

invoking the power of a stampeding herd of mythical beasts, the animais soar o alarme 12inch is a carnivalesque dancefloor exploration that highlights the unbridled percussive sound for which ninos du brasil have become known. according to the label: the a side presents the shadowy duos original track a rollicking and propulsive explosion of beats unified by steady stomping bellows of unknown origin. the b side sees the bunker resident dj patrick russell providing the first ever remix of a ninos du brasil track, imbued with the precision, discipline and restraint for which he has become known, making animais soar o alarme seem all the wilder for his skillful steadying hand

before his debut studio full-length, dubbyman racked up a remarkable discography of dance singles and remixes. he has been away for a little while, but his new 10-tracker album is the perfect tool for him to make his anticipated return. -deep is dead- is a fascinating mix of organic and synthetic, past and present, smoothness and eclectic, darkness and brightness. the spanish producer has veered away from those dub-heavy and dark atmospheric deep stylings, and instead has ventured into much classic house and musically territory. almost all songs are soaked in warm chords, dreamy leads and gripping melodies. dubbyman also offers an immense and stunning roster of credits and guest musicians such as kuniyuki takahashi, leo gunn and george btp aka allstarr motomusic, just to mention a few.

fresh from wowing us with that crazy limited promo 45, parisian krikor kouchian delivers 11 tracks of expertly executed boogie funk. big tip!

having established himself as a vital figure in the brussels music scene, biologic records co-founder dc salas presents his debut album the unspoken. the 10-track lp features collaborations with fellow belgian electropop duo joy wellboy and mirror minds. after a string of dancefloor oriented eps, he draws inspiration from his live act and diverts away from the club to explore the more melodic aspects of his sound.

following on from ninos odyssea ep, batti batti call on artists from brazil, ukraine, luxembourg and the uk for their v/a release the breeze ep. acasual, tominori hosoya, kiddmisha & apoena and jonno & tommo are all on top form making this a must have for anyone who likes their sounds deep a luscious.

boys noize über “midnight”: “ich hatte das vocal schon längere zeit und setzte es in meinen dj-sets ein, aber ich fand nie den richtigen aufhänger, um daraus einen song zu machen. mein erster versuch war diese industrial-break-artige idee, aber ich verwarf sie und versuchte viele andere versionen. ich dachte, ich könnte etwas wie “xtc” machen, aber es funktionierte nicht. also holte ich meine initiale idee wieder hervor und ja sie wurde zu meiner lieblinsgversion. dieser prozess ist ein gutes beispiel seinem initialen bauchgefühl und seiner intuition zu vertrauen.”
remixes kommen von boys noize & mr. oizo, addison groove, audion und ein vinyl-exklusiver remix von cardopusher.

nino delivers his first well-deserved solo ep on batti batti. originally from bosnia, but based in brussels (belgium), nino s tracks have always been a perfect representation of a purely deep underground sound. starting off with a soothing piece of ambience to set the mood , odysseia ep is aimed for club use and hence depicts ninos evolving style yet maintaining his secretive and atmospheric element as a common factor.

deluxe doppel-vinyl edition im klappcover, limitiert auf 1000 stück.
neue elektronische instrumente – minimoog, arp odyssey, roland system 100 und mc-4, die legendäre korg ms-20 oder die roland tr-808 – ließen die musiker zwischen punk und klassischer ausbildung, zwischen kunstakademie, ratinger hof und dem kölner studio für elektronische musik, einen völlig neuen hybriden entwickeln. die zusammenstellung trägt neben der historisierenden leistung aber auch einen deutlichen genusswert: neu!’s “isi”, rothers “karussell” oder wolfgang riechmanns traumhaftes “abendlicht” nehmen einen mit auf eine reise durch die wolken, daf, liaisons dangereuses und die krupps tanzen gleichzeitig am boden mit schweren stiefeln auf den verdreckten böden des düsseldorfer untergrunds. “electri_city 2” versammelt die exzentrischen protagonisten einer bewegten zeit, gleitet im rundblick durch den elektronischen kanon der landeshauptstadt nrws und birgt gleichzeitig lang verloren geglaubte schätze wie teja schmitz weitestgehend unbekanntes stöhnen in “studieren”.

alexander ridha, besser bekannt als boys noize, meldet sich mit mayday zurück. auf seinem bislang dynamischsten werk führt ridha alles, was ihn geprägt hat, so konsequent zusammen wie noch nie.mayday verbindet die energie und den geist des punk mit der kraft des modernen techno und der frühen tage des rave, und transportiert die unschuld einer vergangenen Ära in die jetztzeit, ohne jemals anachronistisch oder nostalgisch zu klingen. kollaborationen mit polica, hudson mohawke, benga, remy banks, spank rock und so manchem geheimen gast (es lohnt sich die liner notes zu lesen) erweitern das spektrum.ich versuche mich immer selbst zu überraschen, als produzent und dj. etwas neues zu schaffen, etwas, was ungewiss ist, das hat für mich den grössten reiz sagt ridha. mayday steht repräsentativ für eine generation, der genre-grenzen nicht mehr viel bedeuten. musik ist spannend, wenn sie gut ist. und das gilt auch für mayday

hier tueftelte kraftwerk im legendaeren klingklang-studio an klassikern wie >autobahn< oder >wir sind die roboter<, hier erlebten rheingold ihre dreiklangsdimensionen, und hier brachte daf den sequenzern das schwitzen bei. ohne den einfluss der düsseldorfer musik haette es gruppen wie omd, heaven 17 und depeche mode wohl nie gegeben. sie alle bezogen sich auf die pioniere der elektrischen stadt, bevor sie selbst botschafter der neuen musik wurden. von diesen pionieren handelt ruediger eschs buch >electri_city - elektronische musik aus duesseldorf< (suhrkamp), dem die hier vorliegende und gleichnamige compilation zur seite gestellt ist.

following his debut album from last year, el nino andres releases a new ep titled mona. this 12 inch red colored vinyl is home to 4 new tracks that follow el ninos flirting with all sub-genres and sounds of house music. new ep also introduces sleep night, a producer from ukraine whose bass driven lp is scheduled for release on hija de colombia in 2013.

standout track taken from don ninos latest album >in the backyard of your mind< (released in may), >beats< is about to take over your turntable for good thanks to three new remixes at the crossroads of the indie-pop and electronic music genres.
the original version of >beats< is a freaky and well-balanced piece of folk music. its lyrics are about body transportation and spiritual dematerialization. but in the hands of chloe, turzi and cubenx the beat boxes substitute the drums, the vocals get distorted, the track deconstructs itself as well as the walls fall between the genres.

first only available via decks.de
el nino andres delivers a full length debut for hija de colombia, and the music he provides for this releases is a step further in deepness of tech house. album is a intensive orchestral affair, going for over 70 minutes of drums, big piano hooks, strings and other mostly acoustic and analogue instruments, over a percussion layered beats.

the strut label returns with a brand new vinyl edition of one of the imprints most in-demand series, disco not disco, exploring original anthems and rarities from the world of reactionary 1970s post-punk and leftfield disco.
with the original two compilations released at the turn of the decade as a new wave of bands like the rapture and lcd soundsystem drew on the musics influence, disco not disco has since been adopted in its own right as a term to describe a whole genre. the compilation is more timely than ever in 2011 as a reference point for a burgeoning mainstream scene.
the new edition moves from new york classics by konk and bill laswells material to early detroit machine music, belgian new beat and a healthy dose of uk originals from shriekback, quando quango and more on seminal labels like y and factory. watch out too for rare gems from unexpected sources including japanese electronic pioneers yellow magic orchestra and 70s prog collective isotope.
disco not disco is packaged in a deluxe 2lp gatefold with featuring sleeve notes by bill brewster, author of >last night a dj saved my life<, extensive track by track notes and rare photos.

to say that matias aguayo lives in the moment would be an understatement. he thrives in the moment. one of today s most productive musicians in dance music he continues find new challenges – whether it be curating music events (most recently finding lost music and new acts from the sonoma desert of mexico for an upcoming hkw berlin series), overseeing the tremendous cómeme label imprint, and most recently joining warps favourite new york band battles as a vocalist for the lead single >ice cream<. he returns to kompakt with his first new recordings for the label since 2009s acclaimed full length >ay ay ay< – an accomplishment of its own right thanks to the fact that it was created almost entirely with samples of his voice. matias aguayo takes it back to the dance floor with what potentially could be his first obvious foray into the world of house music.

at its heart, the album celebrates the communal ideal of dance music with spirited, percussive tracks offering a clear distillation of what could only be described as the cadenza sound. but mirko also diverges from the dance floor, ducking into shadowy corners in search of more private emotions. rather than scattering energy, that tension between moods helps bind the album into a potent, coherent whole.
