Mysticisms eyes summer luv dancin' as new-not-new Deep Dean emerges from the Antipodean well to offer sunrise anthems for the me generation. A man of mystery, but too tight to be a total new-jack-wack. Releases on a who's who confirm the tight-tight-tight production matches the swing brimming of technique, confidence and factor one, fun.Undiluted vibe alives, we ride Ocean Groove, with the Original setting us afloat, teasing the monkey, bassline for open skies and warm hearts. You feel good The drums club, the hats fly high and that's all you need.
Someone say 'more Piano' Hop, skips, yearning keys and whooosh. Beyond plastic dreamz, break down, up to the stars.
Basement dub, tribes and community embrace, progressive, House muzak. 6 hours in deep to Tenaglia, heads down Barberellas, past or present, today or tomorrow, it's a way of life.
To close The Awakening presents. Beats familiar, but in a new (beat) style. Eastern strings and bump-to-jump. Never get off that caravan train. Irreverence aside, such music brings a light against an oft-overbearing angle, where fake it till you make, fashionista turned DJ gimmick - instant emperor's new clothes - are carried off by an unquestioning hype. Under that, bumbling away, is a closeness and realness that will remain, whatever the dollar thinks. Love is the key. It makes the world go around.
Join the Mystery.

"The enigmatic DOKTA returns with 'London Nights' the third single taken from his forthcoming album -'Metronomic'.
DOKTA has already received support from Seth Troxler, Laurent Garnier, AME, Maya Jane Coles, Archie Hamilton, Mano Le Tough & Damian Lazarus. London Nights is the sound of DOKTA at his best - real musicians and live parts are intricately woven together in ever evolving arrangement. The piece starts with a moment of orchestral bliss before heading directly into a low slung rumble of bass frequencies and tight drum programming, complimented with trippy vocals. London Nights sees remixes from Constant Sounds founder and One Records regular Burnski taking it straight to sunrise at Panorama Bar, providing his trademark groove and euphoric pads. Complimented by a stripped down slice of dub techno contributed by Ralph Lawson, similar to his recent Lost in Time dub production with heavy bottom end sub and heavily worked poly rhythms, as well as Alden Records' Jason Heath, completing the package with a beautifully orchestrated string version.London Nights is out on 26th February and the album 'Metronomic' is out 26th March.

Alleviated Records is proud to present the Ken Gill EP. Ken was on the scene while Bernard (Badie) and Larry (Heard) worked on music ideas between 1993 and 1997 and they both help out on "Love Moon", our first selection. Larry's "psychedelic" interpretation constructed around Bernard's bassline idea and Ken's original elements. "Just A Test" is up next with its' "tracky" feel that dj's, dancers and all who like to keep it "no-frills" should enjoy (we hope!). "Idol Mind" has an interesting combination of "moody", "upbeat" and "whimsical" that draws you in as you listen. "Jack Wit Honey" is another that draws you in as you listen but this time with a "melancholy" overtone combined with a fun "bounce". Ken has only been making trax for a short time but we were all pleasantly surprised to hear his ideas right from start when he decided to try his hand at it. We're happy to present his first release and hope you enjoy it too! Musically Yours...

Berlin-based American producer P.Leone returns to Spencer Parker's Work Them Records with arguably his biggest offering to date, featuring two standout cuts entitled 'The El Dorado EP'.
Upon being discovered by Spencer Parker, P.Leone dropped his first two releases on Work Them Records in 2016. Since then he has continued to rise, launching E-Missions alongside Caiazzo last year before kickstarting 2018 with a four-track techno release on Rekids. He now returns to Parker's renowned imprint with arguably his biggest offering to date.
With its looping vocals and robust drums, 'El Dorado (Bump Yo Ass Off Mix)' is a monster of a track designed to throw dancefloors into absolute revelry. On the flip, 'Dancing To Get You Back' features crystalline synths, purring bass and a medley of breakbeat percussion.

Rising stars Pentatones, justly lauded for their distinctive blend of oblique pop, jazz-inflected electronica and languorous torch songs, receive the full Steve Bug treatment on Poker Flat's latest 12 transmission: a meeting of minds that produces an utterly seductive dancefloor anthem. The original version of 'Karma Game' appears on the Pentatones album 'Ouroboros' which will be released early 2015. Distilling the original's haunting noir pop into a deep techno groove, Bug suspends tinkling chimes and tuned woodblocks around a gritty bass stab. A choir of siren voices follow, hauntingly layered as the tension builds and the riff tightens its grip on synapse and sinew alike. But all this is merely a prelude to the introduction of Delhia de France's vocals: a heartstring-pulling foil to Bug's intense repetitions, creating a heady blend that is deeply involving and instantly memorable. An instrumental version on the flipside gives harder-leaning DJs the chance to focus on the hypnotic riff and crisp, percussive touches that comprise the trademark Steve Bug sound, topping off a rich and unforgettable packagep.

BRYAN KESSLER is not a musician, he is a force of nature. The young talent's refreshing perspective on electronic club music shows a love for powerful sounds that so many other producers are lacking these days.
Something that he was already able to proof on releases for Get Physical (remixed by DJ Hell), Coméme, Low Hanging Fruit and Like Records.
The release starts with YOU LOOK LIKE TRUNKS, a heavily driving, desert inspired piece that makes clear hat Kessler grew up in rock music. His second track VEGETA charges up with a red-glowing synth lead that eventually explodes in a wave of youngster mayhem. Teens are still doing it!The B side is dedicated to LUDWIG ZIBELL's remixes of both tracks that continue Kessler's energy with precision and warmth. His B1 remix releases a ock of tarantulas that set the clock to peak time, while B2 adds psychedelic loops to the drive of the original.
This is the fourth vinyl release of SUPERMOLL from Köln. Rooted somewhere between a Sound of Cologne egacy, german experimental Kraut attitudes and dirty acid vibes from oversea.

Electronic music label Sheik 'N' Beik announces its new release SNBV013, an EP called Daisy Cutter by JEM. This EP is the third release in their series aimed at celebrating the diversity and history of New York and its boroughs. As Sheik 'N' Beik's hometown and source of constant inspiration, the label focuses on spotlighting and paying homage to the five boroughs of New York including Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, Staten Island
and The Bronx. Each borough's flag is given a modern and colorful twist via the cover art and design of
each outer jacket. The first release in the series, Manhattan, featured local NYC hero and co-founder of
Voodoo Down Records N'conduit, and the second, Kathisma resident Mr. Dello's Vaadhoo EP. The new EP from JEM, dedicated to The Bronx, opens up with title track Daisy Cutter, which directly sets the tone of the release with a straightforward, dynamic techno, elevated by an eerie, dark atmosphere. It
goes on with Neb, a downtempo second track with a lighter tone that progressively gets back to the initial
mysterious mood and capriciously brightens it with warmer back-and-forth sounds. Next on the 12' is
Semiotic, a third track structured by a clever balance of deconstructed rhythms and sparse acid and synth
melodies in the continuity of the lighter, warmer mood previously built up. The EP ends with Temple, with
a more aggressive accent animated by several lighter melodic layers and a stifled background bass.

Mollono.Bass & AVA Asante celebrate with their first joint album: BIRDS FLYING HIGH.

Matt Edwards' newly launched reissue label, R-Time Records, prepares its third release, the second instalment of Sir Lord Comixx 'Retroactive'.
R-Time Records shines a light on classic tracks that didn't always get the recognition they deserve, with the label's first two releases coming from Sir Lord Comixx and FBK. Real name Amoon Andrews, Sir Lord Commix's discography has been in high demand for many years, evident by soaring market prices. The A-side of 'Retroactive (Part Two)' features two tracks from a rare untitled release on 'Hard Up', whilst the B-side is made up of 'Chicago Jazz' from the 'Funk Box EP' on Eukahouse (under his a.Moon' moniker in '98) and 'Motionvibe' from 'Azid Jazz EP' on Cynic in '05.
Cosmic synths join wonky arps in 'UR My Omen' before moving into the more up-tempo 'Fog Horn' with its robust drums, off-beat bleeps and filtered effects. 'Chicago Jazz' takes things into deeper territories with crystalline Rhodes and jazz-influenced samples until 'Motionvibe' concludes the package with its syncopated structure comprised of twisted sounds, murky atmospherics and effervescent nuances.

PP proudly presents another double urge to turn up the volume": The 12th offering on Public Possession comes from TMO (aka Leonid Lipelis). Lipelis, who is based in Moscow and whom we met there first when playing in Russia, is a music maniac. This was clear almost instantly and at some point during the night we found ourselves on the couch in his homestudio, where he played us an array of tracks from his various guises and projects. One of the first tracks presented to us was Melodic Jam". It grabbed our attention immediately with its raw acid sound merging perfectly with beautiful atmospheric synth pads and an almost naive melody - powerful and emotional stuff. Since TMO is a project based around the concept of Lipelis recording one-take jams with his studio hardware (only doing slight adjustments subsequently) the sound has a lot of grit and spontaneity. Jam IV concludes this EP. Shorter and a bit slower than its counterpart on side A, it gets to the point quickly and leaves no questions unanswered - except when is the next one coming

Incepted just three years after the beginning of the Kompakt venture in 2001, it's safe to say the Speicher series holds a very special place in both the heart of the label and its audience's. Taking the helm for the 102nd instalment in the catalogue (and the first Speicher to feature 3 tracks) we find an eclectic squad of producers triangulating from all corners of the globe but united by their boundless science of the groove.
Longtime friends turned studio companions, Enzo Elia (of Balearic Gabba Soundsystem fame) and Musumeci join forces for the first time on the unfaltering late night hip-swayer 'Gothic Safari', kicking things off with a relentless deep dancefloor epic à la Âme. The vibe then swerves into further savannah-friendly audio territories with unheard French newcomer La Marine who, like his glorious predecessor Oxia (but is it fate) operates out of the mountain-ringed city of Grenoble, here popping up with an off-axis downtempo electro hybrid of unknown provenance.
Looping the loop with maximal tension and mind-piercing depth,
rising Bolivian duo Animal Print serve up the aptly named
Badalamenti-esque roller 'The Last Night Of Laura Palmer' - a track that won't fail at recalling the 'Twin Peaks' aficionados the bizarro ambiences of Lynch's acclaimed TV show all the while following a rather straightforward, frontally club-ready sense of style, resulting in a fine balance between down-to-earth pragmatism and unbridled reverie.

Antique Fragments EP is the third release of our Kommuna Tapes imprint. The A side starts with a quirky fast-paced track created by a mysterious producer named Schematix in 1997. Thinktank, an electro/breakbeat act who signed his first and unique EP only a few years later in 2000, takes us on a punchy yet dreamy techno journey. On the flip side, after Schematix undusted his hardware to extract the stems for the occasion, wizard Sergio Moreira mastered the challenge of creating a slower and deeper version of the track, while upcoming Madrid talent Javier Moreno closes the release with a bouncy acid burner.
Track by track, we build a Kommuna of artists who share our insatiable appetite for music discovery, guided by a certain vision of the dancefloor: deep stripped-down grooves, sometimes challenging, always with character.

Man Power's Me Me Me label proudly presents a very special new compilation, 'We We We', which will see all profits donated to the vital Help Refugees charity. The release boasts 25 new and exclusive tracks from a wide range of artists both new and established including Pional, Juan Maclean, Shit Robot, Medlar, ASOK, Ian Blevins and more. As well as the full album, two limited, vinyl-only samplers will also be released, with each featuring one exclusive track that is not available anywhere digitally.
The recipient of the albums profits, Help Refugees, is the leading UK NGO in a new movement of humanitarian aid, helping to plug the gaps in services not provided to those displaced by war. The man behind the compilation's concept is Man Power aka Geoff Kirkwood, an established producer with credits for his off kilter mix of house, disco, ambient and techno on labels like John Talabot's Hivern Discs, ESP Institute and Jennifer Cardini's Correspondent.
Kirkwood says, 'I have wanted to do a compilation of this nature for a long time. I'm incredibly lucky, as well as eternally grateful, to know so many talented artists who were willing to donate wonderful music towards this important cause.' The gratitude clearly flows both ways with Help Refugees director Philli Boyle saying 'We are so grateful to Man Power and to all the incredible artists who have shown solidarity with displaced people across the world'.
The superb compilation kicks off in plaintive fashion with absorbing ambient tracks from Ian Blevins, Dharma and ASOK. Pale Blue's 'Eyes' then brings deep and persuasive drums into the picture with thoughtful, sombre synths lingering up top. There is a real beauty to much of the selection here, as demonstrated by more wistful chords on Forriner's lush deep house day dream 'Sunrise in Bensham', while jacking dance floor tackle comes from Pink Skull and Medlar's pumping 909 drums and the pixelated melodic delights of Christophe's rugged, Chicago-indebted jack track 'Winder'.
Man Power himself pops up with an epic nine minute opus that is broad, sweeping house music at its most dramatic and evocative, and Pional's 'Night Charmer' is a typically inventive cut with icy drones and dehumanised vocals. Big hitters like Shit Robot offer a heavy dose of dub house, while 'Quantume Reach' by Juan Maclean (feat Amy Douglas) is gorgeously off beat house with thoughtful chords and spine-tingling vocals with a poignant message.
This is a compilation jam-packed with a broad array of accomplished and standout sounds, and that it is all for charity only makes it an even more essential and welcome release.
The full album is released exclusively via Bandcamp on 4th May in exchange for a 'no minimum' donation to the charity, with the label asking to please give generously.

Concealed Sounds return with a fresh 12" Vinyl for 2014.
This time around we have invited our friends from mysterious SYLPHE label to remix the title track by Martinez, and they delivered a monster!
On the A side we find: "Consolidation (Sylphe Lydløs Dub)", where we are taken on a journey thru sound and rhythms for over 13 minutes. The remix kicks off in a kind of tracky way, with a strong focus on the irresistible groove laid down by Holdie Gawn & Micawber. After the first small breaks and manipulations to the groove, we are introduced to some very trippy modular made sound design. These sounds takes the lead of the remix and forms into small melodies in a very organic way as the track progesses. While you can still sense the ingredient from the original track, Sylphe takes a different directions and offers a good opposite to the original with their own special twist.
The original version of "Consolidations" is presented on the B side of this 12". Its a more dirty groove ridden track that goes on for well over 10 minutes, developing from a broken beat groove into a more danceable Techno pieces, with its shattering metallic sounds, bubbling layers of baselines, deep sub and lush pad chords to give it some spacey atmosphere.
Two very different version of a modern instalment in Techno music.
We hope you enjoy it as much as we do... and as always there is a special hidden track on this 12".

Vivus Records, the underground South German label, invites London-based and RLZ Music label boss Rowlanz for an acid-infused journey thourghout some minimal streets.
Having received constant support from the likes of Gescu, Barac or Archie Hamilton, Rowlanz is a name you should keep an eye on in the future and it is fitting that he has decided to collaborate with Melodie, a young Romanian prodigy that has had a quite meteoric rise in the past year.
We kick things off with Laniakea which is full of brisk grooves with just a pinch of an acid feeling to it that will get you moving accordingly. The hi-hats and subtle bassline complete each other to a mesmerising effect and the background sounds give a lovely deepness to the track.
The stunning vocals on 312 act as a reminder that you can always expect a surprise from Rowlanz and he is in full creative mode here. You can almost imagine the radiant energy boost that this track would give to dance floor enthuasiasts after a long night with a dark atmosphere.
Melodie's interpretation of 312 has the Romanian's trademark sound all over it: acid sounds covered with a strong but linear bassline that floats all over the song.

NOON presents SOMETHING STRONG
NOON means midday, the time when the sun is at its highest each day, even if we cannot see it.
It is the moment of greatest light, where one cycle ends and another begins. It is the end of the day and the beginning of the night.
It is that brightest moment that always leads us to the darkest one, and vice versa.
THE EP
Celebrating the seventh NOON-RECORDS release, we are happy and proud to present you an EP with a name that speaks for itself. SOMETHING STRONG is one of these high pressure peaktime cuts, that can turn any club or festival stage upside down. The slick combination of raw and dirty drum programming and twisted funky stabs & organ sounds, will take you on a ride. The head infecting vocals and synths during the break make sure, that no one will be left behind when the beat pounds in again and again. TOMMER is more on the bumpy house side. With it's massive bassline and percussive patterns, you can get any party started. A perfect track to round up an EP - truly dedicated to the dancfloor.
THE ARTIST

THE REMIX
MATTHIAS TANZMANN
We don't really need to explain you how excited we got to get no one else but our long time friend and MOON HARBOUR head honcho MATTHIAS TANZMANN on board, to remix the main track SOMETHING STRONG for us. Taking a look at his ridiculous summer schedule and the massive successful release of his latest EP on NIC FANCIULLIS - SAVED RECORDS imprint called NO SLEEP, we are even more happy that he found the time to deliever us this monster of a remix. By adding a sick funky bassline and and some air cutting sharp hi-hats, he takes the original track to a totally different level. The perfect arrangement and ruthless drive of his interpretation turns every club into a sweatbox. Thank you Matthias!

The first track is Nima's remix from Pearled Into Droplets in which he created an exceptional base with a prominent tech rhythm, in which we can perceive a few percussion layers that work amazingly with the original synths. Those synths create an incredible atmosphere as they softly evolve in a slow progression during the track, creating tension and release, exactly when is needed. The whole minimalistic approach brings a more than suitable vibe that is driven by a rock solid bass line too. The second remix is from Martinez, who also worked over Pearled, but he went through a more experimental and deeper road with an exquisite re-interpretation, in which the articulations created between the several percussive sounds are beautifully placed in such way that, alongside the synth pad in the backend, creates a superb hypnotic vibe and groove. The third remix is from Daniel's track Yi and was charge of Doubtingthomas, who flawlessly captured the primal essence of the original track with a superb twist in the rhythmic side, in which he created an amazing blend between of minimal house and deep, that easily immerses the listener into a powerful trip. This remix also presents several melodic elements working together with the original track sounds, like the strings during the break and synth pads, which adds a beautiful musical and organic feeling to the remix. The last and not least of the remixes is also from Yi, but in charge of the talented producer Faster, who also took as working base the ambiences and textures from the original track to create a subtle and beautiful minimalistic vibe alongside the percussive elements. The most distinctive sound of his remix is the electric synth riff, which adds soft craziness, and lays the ground perfectly for the hypnotic percussions to take place later on the track, which also finishes the remix's groove exquisitely.

Fort Romeau's second outing for Running Back is another exercise in dance floor synthesis. Starting where its predecessor 'Saku' left us with the green shimmer of a Fairlight, 'Emulators' - you might have guessed it - greets us with the grey realism of an E-MU II. Purchased first by none other than Stevie Wonder, immortalised in Ferris Bueller's ode to absenteeism and the original loon sampler, there is nothing this machine cannot do for you - the same goes for Fort Romeau. His disco-informed, trance-induced tracks that usually end on a high note, are elevated by ambient soundscapes that end with a bang and sugarcoat your warm-up slots, while bird-heavy bonus beats that stand up on their own or help you out in the mix. Nice like a stick of liquo-rice.

Von mama weiß man: die Suppe ist das maß aller dinge, da gibt es mehr rezepte als Sterne am himmel, von bauern-
schlau bis ganz shishi. aber immer ist sie total herzerfrischend. Freude am Tanzen hat sich diese erkenntnis schon vor
Jahren ganz weit oben ins label-büro gehängt, daheim im lauschigen Jena.
