For number 42 we invited UK's tIJN and Bolumar from Spain for an amazing collaboration.

Written and produced by Vince Watson for Bio Music 2014. Recorded at Biocom 6 Amsterdam. Mastered at Hardgroove Mastering.
Published by Westbury Music Ltd / Spherecom Music. Dedicated to every single soul that supported the Bio label since it began in 1999.

Our little Dirt Crew sub label Spiel started out in late 2013 with three excellent releases, the first two by "Clancy" featuring remixes by "Urulu" and "Prins Thomas" followed by a stellar EP from "Mercury". After a hiatus SPIEL
is back for 2016. Renewed and inspired we have a bunch of both fresh faced and established artists on board packing quality releases for the year. With sounds spanning from Indie Dance and Electronica to Disco and spaced out Balearic jams, we're proud to present you the first of our outings for 2016.

First up is close friend and rock solid producer "Good Guy Mikesh". Out of Leipzig, Germany, he's the guy with the Perfect pitch, forward thinking ideas, an impressive discography of 12"s to his name, and a huge range of influences from funk and soul, to 80's new wave electro and back again. He's come to the table with four tracks we've been busting to share with you.

'Whim' is the steady builder. Spacious and very much alive with sliding leads and layers of analogue synths that sparkle, it's melancholic bliss, it's a deep breath inducing, dance floor lifting, thought provoking piece of beauty. 'Why Not' is something deeper, the bass slips and slides dancing with the top line, while a palette of plucked strings, tuned percussion and Mikesh's signature synth soundscapes reach into the distance as the track continues to roll.

On the B side, 'Cookie' is joyful, its playful keys and poolside energies toast to warm weather and good times. Bouncing arpeggios lead the charge in the break, rising before giving way to euphoric synthetic strings which lead us back into the elated refrain. 'Corone' hints towards Mikesh's disco history, boasting a burly bass and a funk all of its own, this indie dance shaker's got a solid groove and vibe to spare.

A listening pleasure and a dance floor treat, Mikesh's far reaching and assured musical vision is inescapable on this record. The perfect welcome back for SPIEL.

JOHN TEJADA carries a reputation as one of North America's most prolific electronic music producers for good reasons: maintaining a steady stream of releases on iconic underground labels as diverse as 7th City, Plug Research, Tigersushi, Playhouse, Areal, Pokerflat Recordings or his own Palette imprint for more than two decades is one, the unabated high quality of his output another. Classic tunes such as Timebomb', Mono On Mono', The End Of It All' or Music For Doubles' prevail in Tejada's coveted portfolio, indicating an artist seriously committed to his craft. A member of the Kompakt family since the 2011 full-length Parabolas', Tejada has continued to fill the crates of demanding selectors worldwide with two more Kompakt albums (2012's The Predicting Machine' and 2015's Signs Under Test') and much-acclaimed EPs such as Lakewood Drive' from 2016. From the carefully sized floor stomp of the title track CEOL to the snappy momentum of PRELUDE TO MADNESS and AISLING's impressionist, melodic grooves, his latest 12' outing further hones an already unimitable sense for balance between driving techno beats

KOLDE is a side project from a wellknown artist who wants to push anonymous, a new techno experience without limit, this release is a proposal of 3 underground techno weapons and a remix from JOTON

Markus Homm returns with another fantastic EP on Bondage-Music, he delivers again four rooling tracks with his
unique deep grooving and timeless style. 2soul EP - sound for bondage on the dancefloor.

Newly established Berlin-based vinyl-only label Dreiklang dive straight into the physical world with First Contact. The label's distinctive triangular concept is reflected in its name with Dreiklang pursuing a three-fold approach to electronic music. Each release presents three contrasting takes on the same source material, juxtaposing and unifying three particular electronic music sub-currents. For their first outing, Dreiklang call upon an international team of producers with OCH, Hydergine and Kelovolt dropping in for their respective shots of tech-house, dub techno, and dark drone techno. The tight three-tracker will see the light of day on a 500 limited edition run of 180gr high-quality wax with the beautiful hand-drawn designs of Berlin artist Nils Altland gracing each sleeve, transforming the covers into individual works of arts. First up on Dreiklang001 is Londoner OCH (Autoreply / Stuga Musik), who takes a simple keyboard line into menacing territory, steering the dancefloor towards the grittier ends of tech-house. A funky bassline leads the way as distant synths exhale in glossy metalic fashion and the road is adequately paved for the reinterpretations that follow. Second up, comes Hydergine. The Italian producer lives up to his brain enhancement drug name by dropping a smart dub-techno rework where mind-numbing kicks bring the listener on an atmospheric joyride through the deeper ends of narcosis. Kelovolt complete the triangle with an immersive remix where drone-heavy soundscapes take center stage for a delicately hypnotic finale. First Contact is out December 16th on Dreiklang.

After releasing SPACE CONTROL an intergalactic journey into synthesizers, back in 2012, the Theremynt duo went on to release a successful, if steady, stream of EPs, including 'Robotique de l'Amou'r and 'Vampiros Discos' (a tribute to Brazilian filmmaker Ze do Caixao). With remixes coming from the likes of David Carretta, Acid Washed and Club Bizarre, these were playlisted by scene DJs such as Marvin & Guy and Ivan Smagghe, amongst others.

Now Yann and Eva are striking back with their second LP, Parallels.

It's a record that sees them changing their colour palette and mood, but one that's still haunted by ghosts that lurk within their synthesizers and drum machines. The 10 tracks still exhibit Peel's ever shifting vocal style and Yann's sophisticated arrangements. But the second LP oscillates between ballad and dancefloor, landing between cosmic disco influences, Krautrock and other progressive techno sounds. As a bonus, the album also features a cover of famous 80's anthem Self Control. (Raf & Laura Branigan).

Jan Ketel is back on Tieffrequent with his second solo EP. No razzmatazz, just pure deepness on 4 tracks combined with his passion for Soul and Hip Hop. Bliss!!
On the A-Side the - 30 Seconds Of Yeah EP flows in with a hopeful and wide opener called - Blue Horses . The use of a raw and steady bassline sourrounded by harmonic and melodic elements and the clearly structured drum arrangement makes it a deep going groover. The titletrack - 30 Seconds Of Yeah is a snotty rhythm based pattern with a puncturing bassguitar slap wrapped in a deep pad...but there's a lil' suprise...you will hear and see :-)
The B-side starts with - Come Home , a stomping beat with a coating chord sequence and some straight hidrum patterns. After the break it changes completely and wondrously transform into an emotional deephouse beauty. - Around Tha Corner represents a dusty sound without compromises. The bassline-kickdrum pattern and the repeating deepchord push it from start to finish...one for the basements.
Jan Ketel's - 30 Seconds Of Yeah EP tells little stories containing unexpected twists. It is a very musical record full of warm chords, versatile percussion and phat beats...but always focussed on the main aspects of deephouse music. Can you feel it

Self Reflektion welcomes the talented Den Bosch-based producer Remco Beekwilder to their label, delivering his debut release 'Basement Tools EP' as the fourth addition to their catalog. Four solid techno cuts included on his first release on vinyl to date, this producer is one to watch out for this year!

Heisenberg's sub-label by Saktu. Analog, Deep & Raw. Vinyl Only. No digital promotion or shares! 180g.

Throughout its musical journey ,Algorhythmic brought together many talented artists that shook the dancefloor with their sound. For this third release, the young and talented Dutch artist Pascal Benjamin joins our family with the four-track EP "Cosmic Horoscope". With remixes signed by Vincentiulian and Giash, the record promises to step up the club game thanks to the unearthly groove that these beats possess, which somehow manage to transcend the auditorium to a whole other sensorial world.

* The Russian maestro strikes again. Following his widely praised debut EP, this second outing on Knitebreed should really cement Ant To Bes reputation as a man who can, and a man who does. Adding distinct jungle and dub elements to his already diverse sound, this EP once again runs through various styles of hardcore. Each track is beautifully crafted, sounding deceptively simple when, on closer examination, they are far from it. Any of these 4 tracks could have been the lead on the EP, as all 4 are perfectly balanced slices of true hardcore style.

This is the Birth of B00M JACK's New Baby my dear friends 'n freaks...

being asked to describe the 22 year old german musician Kolja Gerstenberg - one possible answer could sound like that he might be the lost twin brother of Jamie Jones (but it's just one among any other suitable answers) the youngster and music student (he's studying drums at university) Kolja is a total opposite of the typical modern-music-scene-kind-of-guy as he sticks to his assion, which is House Music in it's classic disguise like 20 years ago. Kolja is not interested in following hypes or trends. what he loves are raw & dirty US House like trax or disco house flavoured tunes with loads of jazzy smell and glitter all over. Kolja is and will stay real & authentic by keeping this behaviour. He is not aiming at superfi just for the higher potential of success or money or fame . . .
This is the Birth of B00M JACK's New Baby my dear friends 'n freaks...

being asked to describe the 22 year old german musician Kolja Gerstenberg - one possible answer could sound like that he might be the lost twin brother of Jamie Jones (but it's just one among many other suitable answers) the youngster and music student (he's studying drums at university) Kolja is a total opposite of the typical modern-music-scene-kind-of-guy as he sticks to his passion, which is House Music in it's classic disguise like 20 years ago. Kolja is not interested in following hypes or trends. what he loves are raw & dirty US House like trax or disco house flavoured tunes with loads of jazzy smell and glitter all over. Kolja is and will stay real & authentic by keeping this behaviour. He is not aiming at superfi just for the higher potential of success or money or fame . . .

Being deeply connected to the funk/soul & disco era back in the 60' / 70's or early 80's, the era of studio 54 & the times of the discoball & hedonistic nights without limits is an evidence that prooves the existance of some kind of legacy within Kolja's family. It's like if his extraordinary talent & feeling for grooves and rhythm was planted in his DNA Code. Why.. Just because already Kolja's father has been one of the very early techno music pioneers being known & popular in the underground music
scene as he was part of the technoproject called AFROTRANCE" with vinyl releases more than 20 years ago on worldwide respected labels like R&S Records or Sven Väths Harthouse back in 1993/94 (!) with these facts in mind it is no wonder or miracle that B00M JACK RECORDS is proudly presenting the result of Kolja's DNA Code as he - more than 2 decades after daddy's artist days - steps into his fathers footprints by delivering the LIBIDO EXPRESS EP for the long awaited launch of BOOM JACK RECORDS. There is no doubt about ... his dad will be proud as fuck!

On the A Side one gets caught by the records title track LiBiDO EXPRESS - which actually is a co-production by Kolja Gerstenberg & his partner-in-crime, Yannic Krauß. As a duo they are working under their moniker F.K.K. This tune is not wasting any time as it immediately takes you by the hand, dragging you straight to the dancfloor, leaving no chance to escape. It's simple but perfectly used ingrediences like the strength of a pumpin kickdrum, the raw and mean bassline plus its beanfield'esque kinda vocal samples doing a propper job untill a well hidden Monster of a 303 acid sequence suddenly emerges out of nowhere to drill holes even through thick concrete walls! This is a truly stunning tune guys that will make loads of people go nuts on the floors around the world. the flip side delivers two extraordinary convincing Space-Disco-House tunes that are playing in a totally different league. But this league is Kolja Gerstenberg deepest love when it comes to music. listening to "Diggin Digger" & "Let it Whip" automatically reminds of house music's hall of fame members like Kevin Saunderson, Derrick May or Juan Atkins. Quite weird though - because they wrote history with their work, founding a never heard before kind of sound back in the day, when baby Kolja G. wasn't even planned by his parents. These US House Pioneers who invented the sound we all are addicted to could almost be Kolja's grand fathers today but this young talents tracks, born in 2014/2015 somehow sound deeply related to the 30 year old hymns from Chicago or Detroit... Amazing - as we think!

This new edition on the everlasting Tresor Records catalogue marks the return of Pacou, more than five years after the release of his last full EP, Sense.
Three recently produced tracks in the true sound that defines the work of the German techno expert, meet a remix of 'A Texture'. Initially released on his 1998 Symbolic Language album, 'A Texture' is a distinctive interlude, so supreme that it remains a Tresor favorite.

Out of the south american continent Colombian producer duo Uron appears for the
first time on Black Brook Limited. Two tracks of the original and three remix versions
completes the EP. The tack titles Hiperion and Leda are multiple terms. One of
Saturn's moons is called Hyperion and one of Jupiter is called Leda. We don't know
for sure if there is an intended meaning to their sound involved. What we listened to
is what you get now. Pure energetic techno, signal sounds, heavy drums. The
upcoming EP contains more than 30 minutes quality music. Responsible for the two
remixes is Greek producer Endlec. Hyperion and Leda are also two terms leading
into the world of greek myths. Is it the bridge to Endlec While travelling through
space your soundtrack should be the 9 minutes groover of Leda - Repressed Mind &
Escape to Mars Remix is the perfect piece to float.

Villem & McLeod return to Samurai Red Seal for another outing to follow their successful pairing on 'Hush' for the label in 2012 which was part of one of the labels biggest 12"s ever. This time both sides of the record are collaborative pieces and both tunes are overflowing with glistening summer vibrations. 'Another Star' has been heavily supported by the likes of Marcus Intalex (who debuted it on his Soul:ution Radio Show), London Elektricity, and of course Friction who has been hammering the tune on his BBC Radio 1 show, as well as picking it up for inclusion on his forthcoming Fabriclive CD. 'Keeper Of The Sun' continues the theme with every element honed to perfection, a tune that transports you smiling into the sunset. Further DJ support already in from Hype, Spectrasoul, Nu Tone, Die, Bryan G, Kasra, Tokyo Prose, Hybrid Minds & more to come. Limited Edition Sunshine Vinyl with free download card & 2 track digital release.

Kling Klong welcomes a new talent from Berlin: Steve Nash. He's already known for some releases on Dantze and Circle Music but what Martin Eyerer & Rainer Weichhold convinced to release this Ep was Steve's fresh approach on the use of nice melodies which give his tracks some nice pop appeal. Basti Grub, the remixer of our choice already proved his skills with very successful releases on Suara, Deeperfect, Kittball etc. and gave 'Taubenhaucher' a great different face.

Our New Muna Musik 007 sounds like if all 4 artists were sitting on a table checking together sounds and how they can create a journey together. Never before we had soundwise one direction of grooves with deep and surprising synths and spinning voices around the dancefloor like on this new various artist. Cinthie´s 'Hurt me", Hector Couto´s 'Ciroco", Christian Burkhardt´s 'Hola' & Luca Donzelli´s 'Not Ordinary' are made for dancefloor lovers with a smile in their faces and enough energy to dance the whole night.

Classic Detroit Techno at its finest give a Chicago twist by Nick Simoncino and Slowburn. Label Boss Costelloe supplied the first two Basic Channel style cuts on the local label under the alias 'Subsignal' and has provided here two cuts of classic Detroit. Included on the release is a remix by much talked about producer, Nick Anthony 'Simoncino', putting his classic Chicago style signature down alongside Costelloe's spacey Detroit cuts. Simoncino has racked up an impressive string of releases on top labels such as L.I.E.S., Aesthetic Audio, Skylax, Mathematics and Balance among others. Also on remix duties will be local boys Slowburn, whose latest EP on Lunar Disko caught a lot of well deserved attention. Their experimental analog house sound should add plenty of extra interest to what is set to be the biggest release on Signal Code to date.

Early Support from...
Larry Heard, DVS1, Marcel Hesse, Billy Nasty, Jereon Search, Victor Martinez, Rob Hall, Slam, Franco Cangelli, The Parallel, Adam X

One of the most promising newcomers around and known from releases on Bedrock and Aeon, italian born Francys presents his first EP for OFF.

Now based in Berlin, and already hauling an impressive back catalogue, Francys delivers five tracks filled with dancefloor goodness.

Opening up with Elsewhere, a catchy melodic deep techno cut, the track creates a tense yet sustainable build up by the way of ambient-ridden synths.

Title track Komorebi exerts a similar feeling, craftly layering grave synths peppered with high pitched acid-like bits.

Fellow Berliner and BLKRTZ label boss Deadbeat is the muscle behind the remix, bringing his well known penchant for timeless techno to the game. The reputed sound designer manages to inject more groove, turning Komorebi' into a peak time
contender.

Pandora's Scream' rounds up the release, exposing a metallic ridden bassline, interspersed with eerie high pitched sounds.

Last up is The Monk', a dark and somber sonic exploration infused with mysterious,
chant-resembling vocal pieces that give the track a ghoulish atmosphere.

Martin Eyerer returns with the single release of probably the strongest track from his last album 'Struktur' featuring the vocals and bass from Berlin's celebrated band ABBY. With remixes from Chopstick & Johnjon (SUOL) and Ackerman this release looks like a biggie!

Excise Records' 2nd vinyl release is a celebration of both Northern and Southern Californian techno. Oakland's Milkplant has been making heady dancefloor bombs for 2 decades, and Los Angeles icon Developer jumps in with a beautiful retro-hypnotic remix of Far Star. Milkplant's Dust Cloud is a 10 minute epic build with dreamy synth work shattered complex metallic percussion and anchored by a shockingly weighty bassline. The original Far Star is a wild romp with psyched out synth arps and relentless spit-fire hi hats.

Artist biography:

US based artist, Milkplant (real name Justin William Pennell) is originally from Milwaukee,Wisconsin; but has resided in Oakland, California since 2010. He relocated to the West Coast in 2004, lived in Seattle for six years, and started the internationally recognized Techno label and artist collective, From 0-1; with fellow artist, Sone. Schooled in the Midwest and developed on the West Coast, his work encompasses over 30 years of combined DJ/production experience, and 9 years of record label operations.

In autumn 2014 he released 'Time Dilation', a four track 12" EP on From 0-1. Charted by Gary Beck, Paul Mac, and Ben Sims at #2, #1, and #26 in their November 2014 Juno charts, this was a turning point for him. Since then he has released on Planet Rhythm, Wall Music, Dark Net, Etichetta Nera, From 0-1, and Excise. His productions have drawn critical acclaim from many notable artists; showing up in mixes and charts by Ben Sims, Jerome Sydenham, Bryan Zentz, Joachim Spieth, Tommy Four Seven, Submerge, Tadeo, Mattias Fridell, Mr. Jones, Electric Indigo, David Meiser, Samuli Kemppi, Arnaud Le Texier, Abstract Division, DJ T-1000, and many others.

As a DJ he can be found playing a combination of vinyl and CDJs. He has played in various cities across the US, most notably in Detroit at the Blank Code - Droid Interface/Scene party for Movement 2016. His mixes have been featured on Droid's D-Node podcast, the Warsaw Torture Boyz podcast, Blank Code podcast, Drone podcast, and Error Sessions. Regarding upcoming releases: 'The Distance' vinyl EP arrives autumn 2017 on San Francisco based label, Excise; his remix of Sone's 'Australis' arrives on vinyl late 2017 via From 0-1.

Early supported by nearly everybody! Comes along with strong remixes from Renè Bourgeois, Oscar aka OZZ and Rich vom Dorf!

Following on the heels of last year's "Circuit EP", which got support from the likes of Scuba, Matthew Dear and 2000 And One, Andre Crom starts into 2017 with "Short Circuit", another offering of stripped back and highly functional dj-tools.

The title track's energetic drums are inspired by it's predecessor, but "Short Circuit" ditches "Circuit"'s vocal in favor of a mental industrial percussion-lead.

Impedance takes things towards a more stripped back and minimalistic route, the "randomly" syncopated drum patterns giving the track an ever-evolving feel.

Tallmen 785, a new member of the OFF-family and known from releases on Hotflush, Fiedel and his own "Tallmen Records", delivers a trippy and hypnotic underground remix.

OFF welcomes 2 new techno artists to its roster, Spains' Rehmark, and UK's Bahahs.

Both artists deliver one piece of functional and deeper techno each, all tracks share a raw and analogue feel.
