soundway hat neben einem herz f³r die afrobeat-gemeinde einfach die besten connections. um beatkoryphõen ausgesuchte sortimentsperlen zur exklusiven verfeinerung anzuvertrauen. und so erklõrt sich auch die 12ÆÆ mit den beiden edits von -only you- und -hafi deo-. zwei dancefloor-klassikern aus den achtzigern. sie treten in die fu?stapfen der beiden kompilationen -doing it in lagos- und -nigeria disco funk special-. -only you- ist eine nummer des nigerianischen disco-altmeisters steve monite. das bereits im original ein gefragtes dj-st³ck ist. aber durch die ?berarbeitung von frankie francis (sofrito) noch einmal an tanzflõchen-f³llqualitõt gewonnen hat. etwas entspannter geht es auf der b-seite mit -hafi deo- zu. einem kongolesischen disco-pop-song von tabu ley rochereau. den nick the record und dan tyler (idjut boys) mit diversen dub-spielereien veredelten.

this reissue of the small batch of records which was at first released in 2015 now comes to the stores in this years fall. the record is the successor of the record bombtrap1 which is also called restless breed by chip tronic from 2004. * during the year 2014 the idea emerged to have these tracks remixed by musical friends. like minded artists were contacted by email or chat and samples were uploaded. during this process it became clear that it would be a better option not to do only remixes of the original tracks but instead to include tracks which have the same mood of the original which is industrial wonly dark techno. straightforward but quirky at the same time. * so the concept of doing a pure remix was enhanced to the upgrade idea. hence the number increased. apart from this maybe confusing history tree – it was a kind of freaky concept idea . but the label name can sometimes explains it – the resulting fruit which is this record contains 5 very different tunes. every record needs a kind of opener / hymn. the a1 is: flekk-botox_neoflekk. flekk takes the original robox neotech track and transforms it into a crispy blend between dutch electro . british wonky techno and french techno from the first zero years. the tune might have much cheese but this its character. bon appetit !

the raw jacking sexiness of ghetto house has always played a big role in the killekill universe. so its high time to put out our first release which goes that direction. italian andrew soul is an artist we have been watching for a while already. when he sent the demo with the extremely raw and dirty tunes that you find on the a-side of this 12inch. the decision was easy: killer stuff which makes you bounce immediately we want to put this out! the b-side comes from dirtbox. who is also one half of snuff crew and therefore has been part of the killekill family for a while already. actually almost from the start. being the musical wizard he is. he can not only make house and acid music and anything else you could think of. but also class a ghetto house. maybe even more classic than andrew souls side but ranging from the percussive style of smmfd and work that to the raw energy of fukk it is definitely in no way less original. shake dat ass!
