you want techno? we give you techno! >quazar< knows his job, very well. bruno sacco closes that ep with a slow, heavy and wet remix of quazar.

now techno has its own fair trade. basmati, the new label by gabriel ananda (artist direction) and marcel janovsky (management), does not indulge in pretentious bragging. epic tracks are rarely seen in such a light-footed mood: gabriel ananda shakes his hairdo again, this time in cooperation with floor hope daniel mehlhart and the pioneers from superstitions quazar. the results are two genre-bending tracks, whose friendliness makes them look like 10 minute long wolves in sheeps clothing. pinpoint funk with panoramic view, coming from true masters of all classes.

(2000 and one rmx) vinyl sampler 2/2 contains exclusive & unreleased tracks by sandy huner, quazar, dj madskillz & randy vicious. indeed, high quality tech-house from within: amsterdam is here. already supported by dj s like richie hawtin, sven väth, laurent garnier, roger sanchez, ricardo villalobos, luciano, karotte and many, many more

after the huge success of the debut single >from the future< the imperator returns with his second output on the german electro imprint alphabet city. beeing in the case of well known likes as john acquaviva, westbam and mike monday the new single shows us that the quality of the first one can be topped. a sure floorfiller for fans of the good old days of trentemøller

quazarz came to the earth from somewhere else, a musical ambassador from his place to ours. somehow, through fire or through fury, the palaceer of shabazz palaces caught wind of the tale, and it is through his prism that we hear the story. the beach was there, and atlaantiis, and chemical alterations and cell memories and andre norton, richard k. morgan, and always octavia butler. there were killings and there were votes, and brutality in both. there was sound and there were other worlds, and there was a vastness so participation sometimes came only at the edges. and the palaceer coasted down with the alien notion, like quazarz, and so became. on quazarz when they look at this place they see the inhabitants, the humans, but they don’t assess as we do. and so quazarz was sent to meet a cat with vibration, a creative and courageous, caring, compassionate dude that stood out. the dude was a drug dealer, but that was neither here nor there, until his dealings squashed the rendezvous, leaving our alien alone to figure out what this place is really all about. the vinyl release includes a download code.

…speaking of air and darkness, “born on a gangster star” came into the world in a big damn hurry, like nightfall on an island. you can see it happening, but then again it’s so gradual that the next thing you know - it’s dark.
imbued with the energy and ideas from all the creative embers floating in the atmosphere like fireflies, shabazz palaces recorded this entire album over the course of two weeks with blood in seattle. new gear and new equipment disintegrated comfort zones into dust and a new path appeared in the rubble.
herein the palaceer continues the tale of quazars, a sentient being from somewhere else, an observer sent here to amurderca to chronicle and explore as a musical emissary. what he finds in our world is a cutthroat place, a landscape where someone like him could never quite feel comfortable amidst all the brutality and alternative facts and death masquerading as connectivity.
the vinyl release includes a download code.

after several releases on huge labels like kneedeep, schubfaktor, fatal resignation, datablender and more, sam silva strikes back with this heavyweight 5 track ep. pure hard techno tracks with heavy breaks!

detroit, 1993. the burden brothers, known for their octave one project and 430west record label, start a new sub label called direct beat. it was created to release the techno electro sounds of inner city detroit. in 1995 the label was in full effect and released music produced by friends such as tommy hamilton, keith tucker, mad mike banks, will web and them self.
now 15 years later we know that direct beat was one of the big influences on how electro and techno is today. together with underground resistance, axis, m-plant in detroit and some like minded people in europe and artists such as drexciya, aphex twin, autechre and dopplereffekt it changed the way people looked at techno... it broke away from the dominant 4/4 kick and brought back the funk and emotion that disappeared once house and techno became popular and mainstream music in the early 90s.
we are happy to bring back direct beat records by making some of its classics available for a new generation. this is a part of techno music history we may not forget about! especially in these days that people consume more and more of the format tracks. this shows that emotion, passion and energy creates much more then just a dj tool... it creates tracks that become part of peoples life! and not for just one or two months in your i-pod... but for the rest of your life in your record collection! timeless classic collection... must have!
