repress 2019 - after a full year of dedicated work we are happy to announce that dominik eulbergs fourth album >diorma< will be released in may 2011 on traum. after the >heimische gefilde< album on traum, which won the german critic award, as the first techno album ever where comments by the artist himself appeared in spoken word, eulberg has this time aimed at an album which embodies various facets of electronic music. >diorama< therefore resembles something totally new and original and can be referred to as an affiliation towards the real authentic eulberg sound cosmos. he has accomplished this with the highest possible standard and contemporary sound aesthetic.

>let life dance thru you< reveals itself as a safari of live played percussion, instruments and sounds. the duo create here a biotope of sounds that interact with each other... like a live band would do… at times almost arabesque sounding this track is full of mysterious soundscapes... jazzy played instruments... flutes running havoc... it could as well be: a spiritual voodoo session from the 70ies!
the whole sound selection if it would be described in colors, would be dark brown, black... with bits of gold. no shiny lights or illuminated plains. almost 11.00 minutes long this track is a real journey and certainly for the people who know rather than feeding djs.

john tejada and justin maxwell have been floating on top now for more than 10 years taking into account that an army of hungry music programmers have tried out every trick to motivate the masses and to become the new stars. john tejada and justin maxwell can afford the luxury of not needing to do that, since they have written techno history. their education which started with hardware in the earlier techno days ... gives them the privilege to accomplish also this release with machines only. so you will witness 3 raw and beautiful tracks that activate our minds.

max coopers returns to traum with his brand new >empirisch< ep. he opens his ep with >echoes reality< and we realise right away this might be another cornerstone of max coopers musical carrier. inspiring and beautifully crafted as it moves from wonderful lush sounds to a sequences of screeching tones and back to heavenly sounds, >echoes reality< shows all signs of an etamorphosis deluxe realised on the highest possible level of production. from roaring basslines to cadillac squeaking tires to ambrosial vocals ... this is max cooper at his best and a true tour de force.

we are happy to have a follow up of m.in on trapez ltd in collaboration with his fellow mate jonas fahz. the duo has released together already under their pseudonym of mucky pups on the trapez ltd 100 anniversary compilation in may. their a-side welcome to my house features again a jack track, produced and written this time by a whole team including: m.in, jonas fahz, peter eilmers and featuring nick maurer on vocals. bringing together old school and new school this was also the idea with m.in s debut a-side track teach me house . welcome to my house instead has more of a live jammed attitude to it... in this respect it is meaner, rougher and tougher as the predecessor! the alienated and twisted voice of nick maurer adds a psychedelic feeling that keeps you making funny faces to yourself . delgardo has been a long time favourite of m.in and jonas, it is an approved dance floor track, and indeed a slow moving... but funky rocker. fuelled by vocal snippets and fx sounds... the beat goes non stop beat non stop ! elephant blues is the favourite track of m.in and a bit of a mad and deadpan track. fitting very well to the actual chart breaking tunes that spread like a virus in the underground scene, this could be the most modern of the three tracks. equipped with a strong drive, whipping its percussion line into oblivion it is a sexy track. the original 3 tracks are Êsupported by alex piccini with a cool post detroit remix of welcome to my house and well as heartik who has speeded up elephant blues turning it into a cool techno- rush of a track.

the good the bad the ugly the evil is a full on and brandnew 4 track ep from our cologne artist roland m. dill. roland has worked here with a stronger live-set up resulting in tracks more organic. developing from within rather than being developed, the tracks seem to have a stronger hypnotic edge to them. according to the titels the track all show diffferents characteristic. starting with the evil this track is not very obvious but works very much by itself, whereas the good is a perfect intermezzo for djs who really build up their sets with a lot of skill. the ugly is a mental track... it has stunts, it screams, it sees no end... this is mandness on the highest level and also the bad is written in this veain.
