Formally Unknown - Untitled

'Untitled' opens up, building behind a gently reverberated 4/4 kick and interchanging hat sequences. Hypnotic, off-kilter samples and subtle flecks of acid generate a brooding and purposeful tone as a sense pressure builds throughout.

'Tribalz' steadily grows with space echo tails drifting in amongst full and tenebrous pads. A brash and busy 2-step rhythm emerges as an overdriven kick sticks wood-blocks and cowbells to the floor. In a manner akin to the likes of Joe and Blawan, rattling rhythms are mapped across all corners of the mix with imperious accuracy.

Early DJ Support :
Loefah, Breach, Hodge, Benjamin Damage, Sly One, Eats Everything

The Cheapers - Amazeballs

In 2011 it got a little quiet around the co-productions of Fraenzen Texas and Ruede Hagelstein aka The Cheapers. But since the beginning of the new year the lights don`t go out in their studio doing beats and sound. Next to Releases on Areal Records and Bar25 the UY063 was born. Title of the name giving A-side goes back on a quote from Paris Hilton who wants to tell with 'Amazeballs' how super cool she finds things. Anyway the two artists made it real with their concise bassline which will make the people reliably squeak more than hobby DJane Hilton. On the B-side things turn a bit more severe: 'Egyptian Summer' quotes with samples the Arabic spring in Africa and produces a revolutionary ground mood which has never been heard before. On B2 however there are the cheaperesque absurdities on the microfon like we know them... depositing skillfully their own vocals in the belly of a hungry electro monster.

Elektro Guzzi - Observatory 2x12"

Live "techno-tanzband" trio Elektro Guzzi are set to release their new studio album 'Observatory' via Berlin based record label Macro. From their 2010 s/t debut album ("hauntingly beautiful" - Resident Advisor) and 2011 follow up 'Parquet' ("hypnotic, near kosmische reverberations" - Clash) Elektro Guzzi have taken their man-machine live show of bass, guitar, drums around the world, from landmark clubs like Fabric and Berghain to major festivals Roskilde, Sónar and Mutek.
With 'Observatory', Bernhard Hammer, Jakob Schneidewind and Bernhard Breuer shift everything anyone could expect from a live band. Tellingly, instrument credits have been wiped off the record sleeve. Still a string and a drum skin at the source, the sound emanating from the speakers seems to have travelled light years. Utterly alien, 'Observatory' unfolds into a paradigm for both the performance of music and the music performed.
Despite advances in software, ironically it is this live band that initiates a redesign of how techno could leap into the future. There is nothing retro about it. No citations of historic moments. The album resembles a party on the edge of the solar system, with scraps of distant sound memories - a shocking abandonment of anything an instrument was supposed to do. The recordings' warmth is at a stark contrast to the music's Skynet thrust: a time capsule of techno projected into the dark unknown. Metallic and human at the same time, a love cry miles from home...

Miguel Puente - What To Do Ep

or their latest single No.19 Music turn to the excellent Miguel Puente for an EP of soulful, twisted grooves...

2011 ended on a high for Jonny White & Nitin's No.19 Music label with Maceo Plex dropping 'Under the Sheets', for many, one of the biggest records of the year. 2012 has already begun in style with the awesome 'So Good EP' from rising star Louie Fresco and now No.19 looks to continue its unbrokenrun of quality music with this; the latest single from Barcelona based Mexican DJ/Producer Miguel Puente.

Puente has been at the heart of Barcelona's thriving scene since relocating there from his hometown of Monterrey, Mexico. He has established himself not only as a sought after DJ and producer but also as a promoter, putting on some of the cities hottest parties with guest such as Soul Clap, Art Department, Lee Foss etc. It should be no surprise then that his talents came to the attention of fellow Barcelona resident and No19 head honcho Johnny White who snapped him up to record for what has become one of the most talked about labels around. Miguel's single kicks off with title track 'What You Do', an incredible update on the classic sound of early house, with 808 drum patterns, bubbling bass, old school synths and seductive vocals fused into an infectious piece of house music, sublime!

Next up we have the excellent 'Save Each Other' with its dark edged, future retro synth work, haunting riffs and speaker shaking bassline playing off the classic vocals perfectly. The package is completed with a third vocal cut in the shape of the electro influenced 'It's Been So Long' which has a deeper, cinematic inspired feel whilst still retaining a strong dancefloor sensibility, definitely one for the early hours! 'What You Do' is another superb release from a label that is unstoppable at the moment and an artist who looks set for big things, enjoy.

Various - Hardcore Traxx: Dance Mania Rec(1986-95)
 
24

Strut presents Hardcore Traxx: Dance Mania Records 1986-1997, the first definitive retrospective of one of Chicago's most important and innovative house music labels. Emerging as a raw alternative to the powerhouses of Trax and DJ International during the mid-'80s, Dance Mania continued to represent street-level Chicago club music into the '90s, helping to pioneer the Ghetto House sound.

Hardcore Traxx traces the full story of the label from its heyday. Founded in 1985 and managed by Ray Barney, Dance Mania hit the ground running with its second release in '86, the incendiaryHardcore Jazz EP by Duane & Co. Barney quickly became a trustworthy outlet for early house and acid productions by upcoming Chicago artists such as Lil Louis, Marshall Jefferson and Farley Keithaka Farkey 'Jackmaster' Funk.

The label set out its stall with a series of landmark Chicago releases including 7 Ways by Hercules, Li'l Louis' The Original Video Clash, and international smash House Nation by Housemaster Boyz. During the '80s, it cemented its reputation for uncompromising club records and DJ Tools with sounds spanning raw garage (Victor Romeo's Love Will Find A Way), acid trax (Robert Armani) and quality house (Da Posse).

Into the '90s, Barney unleashed the groundbreaking "Hit It From The Back" by Traxmen and Eric Martin, ushering in a primitive new sound around faster, stripped down rhythms and X-rated party-starting lyric lines. Barney remembers, 'Guys used to call in and ask for music on Dance Mania - they were saying, 'gimme some of that ghetto stuff.' Dance Mania producer DJ Slugo adds, 'when we made Ghetto House... we made music for the bitches. Music for the grinding sh*t and all of that.' The sound spawned a whole new swathe of homegrown producers releasing a fast flow of no-compromise dancefloor bangers: Paul Johnson, DJ Deeon, DJ Funk, DJ Milton, Waxmaster and Slugo all became leaders of the scene. The influence of ghetto house became widespread, not least for Daft Punk, whose track "Teachers" from their Homework album in 1997 was effectively a tribute to Dance Mania. The new wave of productions also paved the way for the later Chicago juke and footwork scene.

Today, with the label back up and running courtesy of Ray Barney and Parris Mitchell, Dance Mania remains a revered Chicago institution across dance music. With Hardcore Traxx, Strut traces the history of the label on a definitive compilation for the first time, from the early classics to ghetto house anthems alongside big money rarities and oddities hidden within their substantial catalogue. Produced in association with Dance Mania, the release is compiled by Conor Keeling (DJ behind the popular "Teachers" Daft Punk influences online mix) with help from Miles Simpson of Ransom Note. Physical formats feature full label history and artist interviews by DJ Chrissy Murderbot alongside rare photos.

The two each split a side of a record this time, delivering no holds barred, peak hour tracks in the handy house bootleg format. Edition of 300 copies. No digital. Punks is Hippies

Kitchenstudio3 - Analog Sphere Ep

New release from kitchenstudio3 On "Analog Sphere Ep", the misterious Program Raphel and Pezzo come up with three fresh releases who show their love for unexpected soundscapes and musical emotions.

With "Smile revox" , Program Raphael seems to use the same recipe used in
the mythical production of old Kitchenstudio3's friends , Poker ( Eukahouse
rec.) and Borgomanero ( marshmellow rec) during the last decade. Big bad
bassline, vocals that comes from a lo-fi cassette and a "move your ass"
style drumkit. Old style synths that provide a crescendo feeling directly
for the dancefloor. Play it on your old boombox!Pezzo's 'Analog whisper' is
upbeat and housey, with a screwing bass melody and distorted voices directly
from the streets. Hipnotic keyboards mixed with a hipster drumkit that seem
to come directly from a stoned sunrise in a riviera's beach.
Segment Snap's track from Pezzo lives around a heavy kick and a sinth
breakbeat ska structure. Dreamy voices bring to an altered state of mind .
Use it to fit yourself with a skinny swimsuit or a skimpy bikini.

Tube & Berger - Introlution 2x12" Lp

Die beiden Solinger Tube & Berger sind schon lange keine Unbekannten mehr in der internationalen Clubszene. Sozialisiert durch Punkrock wurden Arndt Roerig und Marko Vidovic schon wenig später von der in den 90er Jahren boomenden House & Techno Bewegung mitgerissen. Mittlerweile produzieren, remixen und DJen die beiden unter dem Pseudonym Tube & Berger bereits seit 8 Jahren. Angefangen hat alles mit einem Riesenhit: die Debütsingle "Straight Ahead" featuring CHRISSIE HYNDE von THE PRETENDERS kletterte bis auf Platz 1 der US Amerikanischen Billboard Dance Radio Charts und es folgten Booking und Remix Anfragen aus aller Welt. Um sich nach dem überwältigenden Starterfolg keiner Major Label-Diktatur unterwerfen zu müssen, gründeten Tube & Berger schon bald ihr eigenes Label Kittball Records. Nach kurzer Zeit zählte Kittball zu den wichtigsten Imprints der Tech & Deep House Szene.

Nach fast 8 Jahren Tour-Leben und Gigs in Kult-Läden, wie dem Cocoon Club in Frankfurt, dem Sankeys in Manchester, oder dem Club A in Sao Paulo, haben Tube & Berger nun ihr erstes Studioalbum mit dem Titel "Introlution" fertig gestellt. Ein wichtiger Aspekt in der Karriere Tube & Bergers ist es, Clubmusik möglichst organisch klingen zu lassen, was die beiden auf "Introlution" nahezu perfektionieren. Auch dank der Mithilfe der Gastmusiker Robert Owens,Thalstroem, Meggy, Paji und Juliet Sikora.

Battista - Records Hold Memories

Battista comes through with his debut solo release on Uaudio - uncompromising hardware action from the young Berliner, and a seriously strong second release for the label.After a successful first shot under the Decas moniker together with another affiliate for Uaudio 001, Battista has found his own sound - hard-hitting house-techno hybrids, gritty and straight to the point. Rising talent John Swing makes his first appearance outside his own Relative/Livejam/Appointment nexus. Every new track he lays his hands on is more quintessential than the last - funky, driving, jazzed-out, dubwise, unhinged house music with a dark, brooding techno sensibility. The label will feature a collection of artists and remixers - future releases include remixes from Vinalog (John Swing & EMG) and EMG (another Relative/Livejam kingpin).



A1. From The Otherground. The EP sets off with pure malice, bringing out the big drums for a total analogue frenzy. You can hear the improvisational takes in there, the slight irregularities spicing up the mix. The driving, pulsating beatdown style is pretty heavy on the senses, with metallic synth stabs amidst subtle swarms of acid permeating from the depths of the mix and a looming vocal sample that pushes the beat further and further out into the ether. An impressive

opener, bloodily reconciling house and techno.



A2. From The Otherground (John Swing remix). JS shreds the original to pieces and works from the ground up to re-interpret the track according to his own rules. Chugging, bold, with a hefty collection of drum breaks, it sounds like a mid-90s UK breakbeat track, slowed down, re-pitched and re-wired for contemporary damage. The low, grungy, looming bassline which swamps the bottom-end is easily recognisable as his own... but it all comes back to his drums -

they're just so grinding and effective for any DJ set. Whilst so many 'floor' tracks pack a punch, JS is also tremendously pleasurable just

to listen to: his samples and percussion are all programmed to perfection, with a raw and improvisational glide. Bumpin'....



B1. Natural Instinct. This is the craziest one of the lot. They're all pretty harsh and furious but when Battista unleashes the drums on this one, it's total war. Bare hi-hats and other percussion in the break-downs give the track a warm, real-life feel missing from much house and techno. After the break-down, the arrangement goes completely nuts (and so will the dancefloor).



B2. Flowing Through Time. The dubbiest of the four, with sweltering, detuned, delayed synth shots getting into a complete twist. Another great example of Battista's percussion-heavy, minimalistic take on house music; another Uaudio installment of terse, raw, dance-crashing monsters.

Luke Solomon - Beyond Therapy Vol.1

Now based in the heart of Leeds, the Fullbarr imprint returns with 'Beyond Therapy Vol.1' by Luke Solomon this ..., comprising four original cuts from the Classic Music Company label-head. Luke Solomon needs no introduction with a back catalogue boasting releases on Southern Fried, International Deejay Gigolo, Leftroom, Crosstown Rebels and of course his own Classic Music Company run alongside Derrick Carter. Here Luke returns to the Fullbarr label following his 'Ultrasound' EP last year.
Since its launch Fullbarr has continually seen support across the board from Mixmag, De:Bug, DJ Mag and many more with the labels DIY ethos, hand delivering stock to record stores, simplicity and organic promotion highlighting the attention to detail embodied in the company. The imprint closed last year with a retrospective compilation of remixes from the back catalogue and has picked up support from many reputable DJ's along the way, such as DJ Deep, Ethyl, San Proper, Christopher Rau and Jovonn.
Here the release opens with 'Crash Beat', featuring off-kilter drum programming, resonant, evolving synth lines and bubbling low-end tones. The track steadily evolves in a drum-driven fashion before the focal point sees the introduction of tweaky, acidic synth stabs, resulting in a flourishing dynamism for the rest of the cuts duration. Next up is 'Hoover Bag', employing a dark, twisted feel with an insistent kick pattern creating a bumpy energy. Broken-beat snares shuffle away in the background alongside blocky hi-hats and loose claps while drawn out delays and a heady synth line further fuels the profound depth of the record.
Following on the B-Side is 'Look Back', veering into house territory this time with shuffling 909 style drums, a simplistic, punchy bass-line and bright organ stabs. Luke creeps in murmuring vocal lines to hidden away in the background to add further texture while the hooky, progressive nature of the cut smoothly carries it along. To close the release Solomon turns in 'Pop Rocks', upping the tempo again slightly with a raw, rolling drum pattern and machine noise continually sweeping around, giving off a hypnotic feel. A cutting 303 line is soon worked in adding to the mesmeric vibe its the envelope is invariably altered and subtle automation.
