RUBBA BISKIT (ROBSOUL) 12  - 104436

SYNTAX EXCLUSIVE! Miss Mee, a favorite of Dj Sneak and queen of the bumping house business drops a jazz laced funk bomb for Phil Weeks in the form of "Rubba Biskit".

"Bailar Contigo" follows suit and has a party vibe latin style like Greenskeepers going south of the border.

WORTHY

IRST TE *VONSTROKE/C MARTIN* (DIRTYBIRD) 12  - 104616

Twisted electronic house smasher on Claude Vonstroke's Dirtybird label from Bay Area producer Worthy.

AUDIO SOUL PROJECT

COMMUNITY *PEACE DIVISION* (NRK) 12  - 103919

NRK recently revived this classic Mazi tune with remixes from Fish Go Deep, here they enlist Peace Division to give this track an update and the result is nothing short of genius.

DJ T

THE DAWN (GET PHYSICAL) 12  - 104530

T's latest Get Physical single is another massive dose for the clubs. 'The Dawn' is a warm & moody houser with crisp electronic sounds that build from a whisper to a scream, dropping back into a chunky rolling groove with melancholy chord changes and tight punchy backbeat. 'Jam Pot' is a more retro sounding affair with bleepy Warp-style synths and warm touches throughout.(GPM071)ELECTRO HOUSE- 6/02/07-GE

INLAND KNIGHTS

HIGH RISE (RAISE) 12  - 104272

Switch's mix is a rude bass-heavy jam that takes the original's guitar licks and Hendrix vocals and chops 'em up into an acidic tech house hurricane. The aa-side features two brand new cuts for youto get your fidget on with, with both 'Close Your Eyes' and 'Bounce' prime examples of twisted floor mayhem.

STEVE ANGELLO & INGROSSO

UMBRELLA (WHITE) 12  - 104571

When Steve played this fucker in Miami all the trainspotters rushed the booth but it was the dancefloor that went bezerk. Holy crap this one goes off, it's like Underground Resistance Knights of the Jaguar meets well the whole Swedish electro house mafia.(UMBRELLA01)HOUSE- 6/04/07-UK

FRANCK ROGER

AFEFE (REAL TONE CUTS) 12  - 102209

Naughty business here from Franck Roger who delivers two reworkings of a track we're pretty sure originally came from Afefe Iku.

REPRESSED & BACK IN FULL!(RTR007)HOUSE- 9/14/05-UK

LINDSTROM & PRINS THOMAS

NUMMER FIRE (ESKIMO) 12  - 104310

After 'Turkish Delight', 'Mighty Girl' and 'Boney M Down' the super hip Norweigian bearded disco duo return with another cosmic space ride looking to be as large as "I Feel Space" people. Holy crap this is next level future disco gear with deep funky percussion, trippy synth action, dirty acidic bass, melodies that have an eastern flair, beautiful string arrangements and a snaking, seemingly never ending groove that keeps asses shaking, heads nodding to the very end of this extra long 14 minute journey!(501725)DISCO- 5/29/07-BE

ARMAND VAN HELDEN

NYC BEAT *MSTRKRFT/EMPEROR MAC (SKINT) 12  - 104292

Armand Van Helden displays his diverse and refined production skills on this next bomb, "NYC Beat". Which has a very cool retro 80's vocal backed by grungy almost Ed Bangers styled synths, beefy dancefloor beats and perfectly programmed dancefloor moments.

DA BUMP *MASTERS AT WORK/AME* (DEFECTED) 12  - 104379

Stunning remix package for Mr V's urban house bomb, "Da Bump" with Ame dropping two mixes and Masters At Work delivering a sexy, sexy mix as well. The MAW mix bounces along with the original vocals providing "Da Bump" while the beats and synths infect your feet commanding them to move.

GLIMMERS

FREEFORM ONE *GARTH* (DISKIMO) 12  - 104552

We haven't seen a production from Garth in quite some time and here Mr Grayhound delivers a Wicked (pun intended) mix of the Glimmers "Ape Or Not", we'll come to this in a second. The Glimmers "Freeform One" is a massive disco kissed rugged house number with loads of funky guitar, tripped out 80's funk action and a twisted vibe reminiscent of Chicken Lips. Now back to the Garth, his mix is as we punned before, wicked. It features metallic cracking snares and a dub meets breaks vibe that is pure west coast drug crazed party shit. One for the Wicked for sure.(DISKO6005)HOUSE- 6/04/07-BE

DEEPER DISHES / SPLITTER

WE GONNA FEEL IT / ALL ALONE (WHITE) 12  - 104094

Naughty number here with a remix of Deep Dish's "We Gonna Feel It" on the A, pure epic euphoria on the deep balearic tip. On the flip Splitter's "All Gone" is another bomb of a tune, dark driving peak time club shit!(SPLIT001)HOUSE- 5/31/07-UK

AXWELL

I FOUND U (AXTONE) 12  - 104547

Huge summertime anthem from the Swedish House Mafia, limited to 1000 copies on Axtone before its full release on Positiva comes later on in the year. 'I Found U' is simply a MONSTER of a tune, with its old school rave synth and piano stabs going off over top of chunky cut-up breaks and the amazing vocal hook that powers its way over top. Expect this tune to go off!!!(AXT003)FUNKY HOUSE- 6/02/07-UK

DAHLBACK & DAHLBACK

SWEDEN 10 CANADA 0 (TURBO) 12  - 104346

The cousins are back on Turbo, back with a vengeance!! Jesper & John bring an all-out dancefloor assault so get ready...'Bempa' sports an uber-squelchy synth riff and some crazy distortion effect applied to the kicks that makes sounds we've never dreamed of until now! 'Rolle Niva' is pure genius, combining sounds from 50's sci-fi movies alongside manic sweeps, jacking beats and some amazing sequencing. Unbelievable. The finisher is 'Tumba', rolling, jacking and pretty much annhilating, just like the two tracks before it. Tiga once again does a brilliant A&R'ing job with these two clever Swedes!  BACK IN!!(TURBO039)ELECTRO HOUSE- 5/21/07-GE

LEE DOUGLAS

NEW YORK STORY (RONG) 12  - 104446

More mind-melding outer space dub from Lee Douglas, returning once again on Rong on this import-only pressing. He's got two more spaced-out house excursions in his bag of tricks this time, led by the disco masterpiece 'New York Story' which sounds like an Italo-led epic sporting a monstrous walking bassline and cosmic synth progressions. On the flip is the cowbell-driven jam 'RAVM' with a steamer of a bassline and a crazy spooked-out break.(RONG020)ELECTRO DISCO- 5/29/07-UK

MIGHTY DUB KATZ

MAGIC CARPET RIDE *VONSTROKE* (SOUTHERN FRIED) 12  - 104382

Southern Fried revisit Fatboy Slim's bonafide bomb "Magic Carpet Ride" with man of the year Claude Vonstroke providing a dirty twangy remix that drops all the disco of the original instead heading into filthy jacking house territory like only Claude can deliver. The Young Punx also deliver a skanking remix on the dub house meets ska tip. SOLD OUT IN A SECOND LAST WEEK, BACK IN FULL!(ECB118)HOUSE- 5/29/07-UK

THE CHURCH

UNDER THE MILKY WAY *TV ROCK* (WHITE) 12  - 104082

Tv Rock rework The Church's hit from the late 80's "Under The Milky Way Tonight" into a very cool house track ala Dirty Funker or the Hoxton Whores. On the flip Tom Novy vs Snap's "The Power" goes under the knife and gets smashed to bits!(NOVA001)HOUSE- 5/31/07-UK

CALVIN HARRIS

THE GIRLS *MICKY SLIM* (COLUMBIA) 12  - 104389

First of two 12"s for Calvin Harris' "The Girls". This 12 features the much coveted album version along with a bomb remix from buzz man of the moment Micky Slim. Also featured on this record is "Rock N Roll" attitude.(8697072211)HOUSE- 6/04/07-UK

CALVIN HARRIS

THE GIRLS *GROOVE ARMADA* (COLUMBIA) 12  - 104596

Groove Armada provides both mixes on this platter, a full vocal version and a dub. Big club stuff for sure.(8869709986)HOUSE- 6/04/07-UK

AARON CARL

SKY *OSUNLADE/T PARKER* (SUPERB) 12  - 104390

Osunlade delivers two outstanding deep soulful and quite electronic mixes of Aaron Carl's "Sky". His full vocal mix is genius, the kind of tune you can listen to over and over (which we have) and never get tired of. It features deep analog bass, warm chords, cool bits of electronics  and a definite nod to the whole German deep house sound ie Ame / Innervisions / Sonar Kollektiv. The dub is just as delicious! Terrence Parker drops two mixes of his own, a vocal and instrumental that has a more straight up NY deep house sound.(SUPERB004)HOUSE- 5/29/07-FR

CHRIS PUNK VS DAFT PUNK

AROUND THE WORLD (FUNK PUNK) 12  - 104478

Daft Punk's seminal classic 'Around The World' gets a proper funky house rinsing by Mr Chris Punk here on his Funk Punk imprint.(FUNKPUNK07)FUNKY HOUSE- 5/31/07-UK

HARDRIVE

HARDRIVE (STRICTLY RHYTHM) 12  - 104503

Does it get more classic than this Little Louis Vega bomb from the early 90's? We think not. Freshly mastered and pressed on loud ass vinyl for all of those whose Strictly Rhythm originals sound like snakes hissing.(SREP2R)HOUSE- 6/04/07-UK

HEADPHONE KARAOKE

WE DONT SAY THIS IS NOT DANGER (BACKROOM DANDY) 12  - 104509

If you were a fan of Golden Boy & Miss Kitten's "Rippin Kitten" you will love this ultra hip number from Headphone Karaoke. "Last Night A Dealer Saved My Life" has a similarly haunting vibe with a sultry and twisted vocal part. It comes in two fabulous mixes. The first sounds like, well a lot like "Rippin Kitten" with a similarly moody, melancholic and funky vibe. Plastique De Reve gets freaky on the mix on the flip adding a rocking acid edge to the track that is pure Adonis / Trax (well more like the acid mix of Sterling Void's "It's All Right" on Dj International but whatever right?).(BRD001)HOUSE- 6/04/07-FR

PILOOSKI

A DIGITAL CATASTROPHE (OMERTA) 12  - 104510

Pilooski is the man behind many of the wicked Dirty Edit series and here proves that he's not just a one trick pony edit master. "A Digital Catastrophe" is a funky ass ode to the all too common hard disk crash. The entire ep oozes funk with Pilooski slaving behind his analog gear, bending the machines until they're dripping with nasty funk, oscillating from Dirty house to slow electro breakbeat stew. Krikor provides a remix for "A Digital Catastrophe" adding an attacking swarm sounding synth, off the wall funked up synth line and frantic drug addled vibe that goes OFF!(OR003)HOUSE- 6/04/07-FR

EDU REYES & DANNY ORTEGA

THE ONLY ONE *DAVID PENN* (URBANA) 12  - 104514

This fresh Spanish number begins with the David Penn remix, a tough and funky pumping house number with evil bass, thumping beats and perfect use of the vocal hook. It builds nicely and has raw dancefloor energy. The original vocal mix has a deeper more hypnotic vibe on the Murk tip and the package also contains a dub.(URBANA028)HOUSE- 5/31/07-SP

BEATLES

ELANOR RIGBY *CUNNING STUNTS* (WHITE) 12  - 104516

Clever, clever use of a few samples from the Beatles classic "Elanor Rigby" in this killer from the Cunning Stunts. The track is a hybrid house / breaks cut with much dub delays and a nasty full on half time breakdown.(CNUT003)BREAKBEAT- 6/04/07-UK

AFRIKA BAMBAATAA

PLANET ROCK *BEAT MACHINE* (WHITE) 12  - 104572

Dirty as hell electro house track that uses just a touch of the vocal from Afrika Bambaataa's "Planet Rock". This sounds like a mixture of Dirty South and Steve Angello styled production and is pure explosive dancefloor power!(12BM001)HOUSE- 6/04/07-UK

NICOLE OTERO

SUNSHINE SONG *JJK/ARNO COST* (CR2) 12  - 104603

Second set of UK-only remixes of Nicole's WMC anthem 'Sunshine Song', with John Julius Knight and Arno Cost delivering a pair of mixes each. Cost's first mix is a pumping electro house re-rub that smartly uses the original's female vocal hook to the best of its ability, over revamped synth lines, tricky, subtle effects, pumping electronic beats and a roof-raising buildup. Think Dave Spoon meets Mark Knight. The deeper house heads will love John Julius Knight's vocal and dub contributions, ideal for those more soulful floors.(12C2X026)ELECTRO HOUSE- 6/02/07-UK

NICOLE OTERO

SUNSHINE SONG*GOLD/B GREEN* (CR2) 12  - 104145

Brand new UK only mixes of Nicole Otero's 'Sunshine Song' from Thomas Gold, alongside the original and Brennan Green remix first released on Nicole's Lovebreak imprint late last year. Gold delivers a pair of mixes, in vocal and dub flavours, really bringing out the best elements of the original as he transforms this tune into an all-out electronic house anthem with one of the best vocal hooks you're likely to hear all year long.(12C2026)ELECTRO HOUSE- 5/14/07-UK

THOMMY DAVIS

I WANNA *SPEN* (CODE RED) 12  - 104605

Thommy Davis drops another serious slice of main room house here on Spen's Code Red label. 'I Wanna' is packed with old school stabs and lots of jackin' attitude, fueled by big, tuff drum sequences and an epic break to go along with the cool vocal. Mixes come from Spen & Thommy together plus the Jack The Trax Mix, ensuring a little something for everyone.(CODE11)HOUSE- 6/02/07-UK

ALEX PARSONS

STORYMATE *AUDIO SOUL PROJ* (GOURMET) 12  - 104621

Special limited clear vinyl pressing on Gourmet featuring some pumping old school house pressure from Alex Parsons and remixers Audio Soul Project who deliver a wonderfully jacking, bleeped-out reworking of 'Disco Drums' that is off the hook!!(GOUR036)HOUSE- 6/02/07-GE

MARI BOINE

VUOI VUOI ME *HENRIK SCHWARZ* (UNIVERSAL) 12  - 100865

Mari Boine is a Norweigian singer with 8 albums under her belt. After meeting Henrik at one of her gigs he revealed that he had secretly done a mix of one of her tracks. She liked it so much she got the people at Universal her label to approve this release. Henrik's mix is an 11 minute epic masterpiece featuring Mari's sensual and mysterious vocals over a production that builds and builds with slick percussive loops and bass & synths that drop in and out in unison. There's also one killer percussive synth interlude that drifts off into outerspace. Big ups on this from Ame, Dixon and Dirk Rumpf.(1721216)HOUSE- 1/15/07-GE

JAMES HARCOURT

GALIA MELON *LEE COOMBS* (SPINOUT) 12  - 104508

Galia Melon is a rough and rugged electro house cut with superb shaking synth action backed by beefy beats and off the wall sounds that perfectly compliment the synths. Filthy big room appeal on this mix for sure. Finger Lickin's Lee Coombs runes in with a remix on the flip that is equally large that adds an Oizo styled jerky bassline and a hybrid house / breaks groove to the drums and more bleepiness to the synths. In a word MASSIVE!(1REC016)ELECTRO HOUSE- 5/31/07-UK

DJULZ

RUNNY *BERKSON/WHAT* (POKER FLAT) 12  - 104432

D'julz is breakin em off something proper on this one. Deep and hypnotic and completely off the hook for any hour of the night! Easily one of the better Poker Flat records we have seen in a while. Tack on a most excellent remix from Dan Berkson & James What and youve got a versatile record worth owning and playing for quite a while.(PFR85)HOUSE- 5/29/07-GE

WILD RUMPUS

MUSICAL BLAZE (BITCHES BREW) 12  - 104581

2 remixes of Pan-pot's "Maffia" here. 1 from the Argentinian wonderkind Barem, and one from Seattle to Brooklyn to Berlin transplnt, Camea. Both mixes are rockers in their own right. One is rougher and more direct, while the other is bouncey with a rolling bassline and percussion thats dripping with FX.(EIN021)MINIMAL TECHNO- 6/04/07-GE

3 ABNORMAL BOYS

KEEP IT (FRANKIE) 12  - 104584

HALF HAWAII

MIR NICHTS / DIR NICHTS (HELLO REPEAT) 12  - 104587

Sammy Dee (Pantytec/Perlon) & Bruno Pronsato team up again under the name Half Hawaii for another outing of minimal tech house that sure to rock the party. The last one on Perlon was a lil more laid back that this one, which is more floor driven.(HELLO007)MINIMAL TECHNO- 6/04/07-GE

AME

BALANDINE EP (INNERVISIONS) 12  - 104589

Well, here we go again, folks. A new hit for AME off of the Innervisions imprint. This one is a 2 tracker in their traditional signature style. 2 slow building floor movers that work the feet as well as the head. Not QUITE as magical as "Rej" but 2 hits nonetheless.(IV11)HOUSE- 6/04/07-GE

KLOCKWORK

GREEN MEN *CHACONA/SASSE*

THE FOG *DARSHAN JESRANI* (MOOD MUSIC) 12  - 104591

Nick Chacona did some gigs last spring in Berlin and had some more sessions with Mood Music head honcho Sasse (aka Freestyle Man) and this is one of the results of that. A long and drawn out funky builder that starts out on the housy tip with a simple bassline, jangly percussion, and some nice jazz keys. As it progresses, it gets a lil darker and leads up to an absolutely brilliant breakdown with one of the fattest, sickest basslines we've heard in quite sometime! Gets the crowd screaming EVERYTIME we've heard it played out. They also got Metro Area co-hort DARSHAN JESRANI to lend his skills to this, and he makes it a disco influenced monster. Also included is a cool dj tool edit done by Sasse. This is well on the way to being one of the bigger recrds this summer, so dont sleep!(MOOD052)HOUSE- 6/04/07-GE

Originally out on the Stereo Cool imprint, this Lemans release of Peter Gelderblom's "Let's Go All The Way" features a special remix from Wawa who gets all percussive and funky on the horns ala Joeski on this one!(LEMANS015)HOUSE- 6/04/07-GE

CLAUDE VONSTROKE

Mr Von Stroke's new UK-based label, Undefeated, drops this 4 track EP of Claude's own productions, under a variety of pseudonyms. FINALLY REPRESSED!!(UNDY1AND0)HOUSE-12/04/06-UK

CLAUDE VONSTROKE

WHISTLER *AUDIOFLY* (WHITE) 12  - 104083

Maybe the baddest of all the remixes for "Whistler", Audiofly provides a burning epic dark and funky mix that just couldn't sit shelved any longer. Get these naughty mixes quickly as they won't be around for long.(GRAD001)HOUSE- 5/24/07-UK

BEN WESTBEECH

HANG AROUND *KARIZMA/WAHOO* (BROWNSWOOD) 12  - 102208

Karizma's mix of Ben Westbeech's "Hang Around" has a beautiful Amp Fiddler vibe with deep pushing key grooves, funky touches of percussion and classy drum production. Defected's Wahoo delivers a more sparse rub, more on the Sonar Kollektive tip pushing the vocals upfront in the mix and laying a deeper than deep Ame flavored groove behind. HOT!(BWOOD12)HOUSE- 5/29/07-UK

LOGIC

THE WARNING (STRICTLY RHYTHM) 12  - 104383

Delicious deep house resurrection here, Logic's "The Warning" was and continues to be one of those classic NYC tracks that sits perfectly next to Frankie Knuckles "The Whistle Song". Remastered and repressed thanks to the good folks at Defected.(SR1207D1)HOUSE- 5/29/07-UK

NYNEX *JOHN LENNON*

EVERY MAN HAS A WOMAN WHO LOVE (SUPERSOUNDS) 12  - 104388

John Lennon "Every Man Has A Woman Who Loves Him (dj version)" a superbly funky and typically Lennon-esque love song in  a similar musical vein to Yoko's "Walking on Thin Ice", extended intro and outro for added dj friendliness. This has never before seen the light of day on vinyl. On the flip you'll find Elvis Costello & The TKO Horns cover of well, Yoko Ono's "Walking On Thin Ice", an extremely cool alternate version of the classic disco-not-disco original stretched out with extended instrumental passages.(NYNX1001)DISCO- 5/29/07-UK

TRICK & KUBIC

BELIEVE (GREAT STUFF) 12  - 104457

After a long break in the studio Trick & Kubic come all the way back with this anthemic electro jam! Whispered vocals and a squelchy lead riff set the main cut 'Believe' off to a great start, getting better and better thanks to twisted synth riffs and more intense vocals. The flipside track 'Container' works a manic slap bass guitar line and freaky synths over a driving electronic beat. Two amazing sides to choose from!(GSR046)ELECTRO HOUSE- 5/29/07-GE

ROBERT BABICZ

CRYSTAL CASTLE (SYSTEMATIC) 12  - 104464

Rob's new 'A Cheerful Temper' album is being released in 3 parts, this 3 track 12" being the first to drop. This release features the tracks 'Crystal Castle', 'Neoreplicator' and 'Liquid Titan'.(SYST007-3)ELECTRO HOUSE- 5/29/07-GE

MAREK HEMMANN

MONSIEUR JUNO EP (GLUCKSKIND) 12  - 104529

Inspired minimal house from one half of the Freude Am Tanzen label. After his excellent remix of Someone Else's 'Water In Mexico' Marek delivers his first maxi on Gluckskind led by the cut 'Strange Woman', a galloping workout with a bassline that instantly fills the room. The title track 'Monsieur Juno' is a warm housier affair with crisp synth drumming.(GLK004)MINIMAL HOUSE- 6/02/07-GE

MATTHIAS SCHAFFHAUSER

LOVE IS A TRIP (NEOPREN) 12  - 104533

Two solid tracks from the one and only Matthias Schaffhauser here on Germany's Neopren label. Once again Matthias dares you to pigeonhole his style, incorporating elements of minimal, electro and techno along with a sultry female vocal snippet and amazing rolling drum patterns. Wicked at the peak hours of your set but definitely cool enough for the iPod too!(NEO008)MINIMAL HOUSE- 6/02/07-GE

ALTERED STATES

V/A *AKABU/MAGIK J/J ANDERSON* (NRK) 12  - 104377

First of two 12" vinyl releases taken from the "Altered States" CD compilation due out on NRK in a few weeks.

BARBARA TUCKER

BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE (STRICTLY RHYTHM) 12  - 104384

Another classic Strictly Rhythm hit revived by Defected here. "Beautiful People" was and continues to be a Masters At Work favorite. Louie Vega produced this one and put out a track that sampled Barbara's vocal before the full vocal track came out so when it finally dropped this one blew up big time!(SRB015D1)HOUSE- 5/29/07-UK

Third installment on Agoria's Infine imprint comes from rising Mexican star, Cubenx who delivers two tracks that are incredibly forward thinking blending indie-electronica, organic sounds, glitchy beats and beautiful melodies brilliantly.

BACK IN FULL!(IF2003)HOUSE- 4/02/07-FR

THUGFUCKER

AHH *D'JULZ* (THUGFUCKER) 12  - 103056

Thugfucker come up with another gem. This one is like some blissed out analog nightmare! On the flipside, D'julz goes to work and makes it all jackin with some really nice touches added to the synths as well as the drums. And the dark synth line that comes in half way through makes the whole thing complete! REPRESSED!(TFR004)MINIMAL TECHNO- 4/02/07-GE

ORIOL BENEDET

THE CLOWN *JOACHIM SPIETH* (GALAKTIKA) 12  - 104428

Oriol Benedet's first release on Galaktika was a sure fire winner. This one confirms that he is a player on the minimal techno stage. Dirty yet bouncy grooves with nice edits thrown in, as well as some really nice deep synths. Joachim Spieth lends himself to the release by making a deeper neo-trance style afterhours jam.(GLK011)MINIMAL TECHNO- 5/29/07-GE

HEINRICHS & HIRTENFELLNER

HUMIDITY EP (KARATEKLUB) 12  - 104429

Deeper and gritty minimal tech-house straight from berlin. Think REKORDER meets JEFF SAMUEL and you would be close(KK017)MINIMAL HOUSE- 5/29/07-GE

PLASMIK

INTERSWAP (CONNAISSEUR) 12  - 104456

Wicked track from these two brothers, who have something coming on Crosstown Rebels very, very soon. Here they break off 3 slices of tight, minimal electronic house in their trademark style. Warped & modulated subs intertwine with tight, punchy kicks and subtle acidic keys for a powerful dancefloor ride.(CNS014)MINIMAL HOUSE- 5/29/07-GE

SPEKTRE

CLONE (HEIMATMELODIE) 12  - 104459

Super heavyweight electro/tech workout from Spektre {Dance Electric} here on Heimatmelodie. The intro synths fade out into some mad bleepy keyboard patterns and sick bassline drop. The flipside works in a similiar pumping fashion, scaling back the bleepiness a tad to let the basslines really FLOW.(HEIMAT002)MINIMAL TECHNO- 5/29/07-GE

CRYSTAL FAKE

WEEKDAY TRIP *MARTINEZ* (OUT OF ORBIT) 12  - 104462

Crystal Fake makes his debut on Out Of Orbit with this superb slice of druggy, dubby electronic house which features a deeper and more electronic reworking from label boss Martinez himself.(ORB026)MINIMAL HOUSE- 5/29/07-GE

NPERFECTDUO

SOARTACUM *HANSEN/DJ DANIEL* (TIC TAC TOE) 12  - 104465

This Italian production duo make their Tic Tac Toe debut with this killer dub/electronic house release for this solid Danish label. First class druggy music on the original mix, stuffed with warm echoes, dubwise bass and heavy subsonics, while label bosses Hansen & DJ Daniel provide a shuffling dancefloor workout over on the flip.(TTT019)MINIMAL HOUSE- 5/29/07-GE

SWAT SQUAD / PIG & DAN / ZAHN

MINDSHAKE 003 (MINDSHAKE) 12  - 104430

Paco Osuna must be getting some great demos from all over these days, which would lead us to believe that is why he made this excellent comp. 4 cuts from Swat Squad, Pig & Dan, Dustin Zahn, and Joy Kitikonti. All ranging in dubby minimal techno with a good portion of drive to them.(MSHAKE03)MINIMAL TECHNO- 5/29/07-GE

MINILOGUE

INCA EP (WIR) 12  - 104434

This new one from Minilogue has got instant classic written all over it. Maybe because most of its influence is taken from an already classic in it's own right? Not sure. All we know is that if we were to be in a mid-nineties late night SWEATBOX of a party, this would be what we would want to hear! "Inca" is a slow building minimal acid jam that takes major influence from the classic "ACID EIFEL" by Choice, off of Transmat sublabel Fragile Records. Its got a neo-trance feel to it, but then again, so did Acid Eifel! The difference here is that as it builds, it gets more and more twisted with detuned stabs that are sure to think youre about to lose control. This WILL be one of the bigger records this summer, just so you know. Oh, and the flipside is good too.(WIR009)MINIMAL TECHNO- 5/29/07-GE

FORTEBA

SPACE BETWEEN US *2LP* (PLASTIC CITY) DP  - 104463

P TOILE

BIRD EP (TRENTON) 12  - 104433

P Toile comes back again to Trenton Records for a 2 tracker which falls into the trippy tech-house category. Kinda Someone Else-ish crossed with Tejada.(TREN019)MINIMAL HOUSE- 5/29/07-GE

JOYFUL NOISE

DIAMOND BLUES (QALO MOTO) 12  - 104392

Joyful Noise return with two slick deep house gems for Qalo Moto. The title track is actually the B and is a dope mixture of electronic and latin vibes that has gotten early attention from Dj Fudge, Miguel Migs and Giles Peterson. On the flip "Peace Love & Harmony" has a dope Tribal Winds / Spiritual Life feel with a great spoken word vocal and beautiful live instrumentation.(QMT024)HOUSE- 5/29/07-FR

BONELLI KLEMENT

ETHNA *PASTABOYS / ROCCO* (KROME) 12  - 104393

Originally out two years back on the Deeplay Soultec imprint, this amazing slab of deep techy soulful house gets revived by Defected's Italian house team, the Pastaboys. The Pastaboys give the track a similar treatment as they did to Ame's "Rej" giving it a heavy tech treatment that perfectly balances the dubby deepness with dancefloor power. Buzzin Fly's Rocco also provides a remix on this plate and the original and 12th Floor (Raw Fusion) mixes from the original are also featured on this awesome package.(KR01)HOUSE- 5/29/07-FR

JIHAD MUHAMMAD / JOE FLAME

THE RUSH / FRIENDS (ASANTE) 12  - 104394

Jihad Muhammad in a few short years has established himself as a heavy hitter in the deep / urban house world with releases on West End, Downtown 161, Shack Music and Hustle Music. Here for the debut release on Asante, Jihad brinds the urban house funk ala Mr V / Sole Channel on "The Rush", a track that has been getting plays from Dennis Ferrer and Kerri Chandler early on. On the flip Joe Flame drops "Friends", a spicy latin fuelled deep house number with a lazy infectious trumpet laced throughout the pushing Latin keys and slick percussion.(ARSAMP01)HOUSE- 5/29/07-FR

WANG DANIEL

LOOK MA NO DRUM MACHINE (BALIHU) 12  - 26467

REPRESS ALERT! The germans just cant seem to get enough of the Daniel Wang/Balihu sound. So, they went and repressed the record that started it all! "Look Ma, No Drum Machine" was completely massive about 14 years ago. Huge disco sample, tough organic drums. Trust us... youre gonna want it.(BAL001)DISCO- 6/04/07-GE

MOTORCITYSOUL

KAZAN *MY MY* (AUS) 12  - 104578

New minimal houser here from MOTORCITYSOUL. These guys always come correct with the deeper and moody stuff. Also contains an excellent reworking from the MYMY camp.(AUS0706)MINIMAL HOUSE- 6/04/07-GE

DOMESTIC HOUSE

DIGITAL VILLAINS

BUSTED SPEAKERS W/JOEY YOUNGMA (JACKIN TRACKS) 12  - 103331

Digital Villains is Lee Mintram from the UK. "Busted Speaker" is a well jackin' house track in all it's glory. a slice of fresh club drivin' music that's perfect for this label. Combining the sounds of the past with the newest tricks and a touch of class. A-2 for Joey's remix steering far from his  signature sound, it comes closer to what you might expect from a coupling of Justin Martin and Jacob London with a very strange vocal. Flip for Joey's "Disco Madness" remix. A full side reminescent of the Subliminal Sound of around 1998 with the Youngman touch added.(JT012)HOUSE- 5/29/07-US

MICHOACAN

MISTAKE KINDNESS FOR WEAKNESS (SMASH HIT) 12  - 103294

The a-side's "Drowning" is one of his most thrilling jaunts to date and has been wrecking heads in San Francisco since last summer. A gorgeous dark piano hook into a signature Michoacan 4/4, replete with live hats and snare, twisted bells, plenty of swing to move your 'ting, all of it leading to a jaw dropping disco not disco bassline and blissfully edgy    arpeggiating synth. If that isn't enough he takes it up a notch with a breakdown that shifts the b-line to an almost reggae one drop feel before taking it home with more synth and string action. Flip for "Running Back", trippy pads and atmospherics set the druggy overtone. Deep, somber keys provide the insistent hook. Swinging sixteenth note hats and the    best cowbell line ever punctuate the OG disco punk meets paradise garage drums all supported by the funkiest of evil basslines.(SHMEP08)HOUSE- 5/30/07-US

DEEP HOUSE PROJECT

JUST MOVE W/ROY DAVIS JR (DEEP HOUSE PROJECT) 12  - 103567

Main mix features Roy Davis Jr on slick old school flavored vocals supported with tinkling keys and jazzy synth horns that make way to a delicious break that leads into some searing percussion and serious bass all joining together for a jaw dropping, refreshing reintroduction to some real house music. Next up is the Jimpster mix, a deep edged straight ahead affair accentuated with big keys and Roy's vocal right up front and center. A midsection that pulses and hesitates and then drives on with an enveloping deepness that pulls you in. Gorgeous! Last up is the dub, a wildly percussive take with  Roy's vocal setting the tone. Pumping bass and tabla drive the energized big sound with breaks that twist and distort  only to launch back into the infectious groove.(DHP006)HOUSE- 6/01/07-US

CROSS BRONX EXPRESSWAY

TRAFFIC JAMZ EP (BLUE LABEL) 12  - 103076

Fresh talent from the Blue label, this time in the form of Italian American duo Cross Bronx Expressway. A-side features "The One", working a sample which some may recognize and a classic diva vocal-all brought together with thick filters and wrapped into the perfect dancefloor package. Flip for "Turn You Out", another classic sample as used on an old Henry  Street record(among others), with soulful and completely obscure R&B vocal riding  on top. Lastly "Just One Groove" takes the vocal from the main cut,throwingitover a nasty late night groove reminiscent of some of the East Coast sounds of the mid nineties. FINALLY BACK IN AFTER A LONG ABSENCE!(BL08)HOUSE- 4/02/07-US

JONES BRYAN

DON KING EP W/J LETTO (RINGSIDE) 12  - 103330

Bryan Jones returns to his own Ringside imprint in good form. Bringing with him newcomers J Lettow and william Alexanderfrom Lingo Recordings fame. Kicking off is "Make You Move" a pure funk bomb, complete with stellar piano and horn loops and those trademarked Bryan Jones drums that never fail. Next up is "Vibe Like Tonight" is the pick of the platter. Building up with a tough as nails disco loop that drops into a delicious groove half way through. Flip for "Hold Tight" a sinfully sleazy hip house jam already receiving massive support from the usual suspects. Last is "Rub On The Fat Booty", another rap sample fiasco with a bumpy bassline, vocal bits and a very twisted vibe. BACK IN STOCK(RR003)HOUSE- 5/14/07-US

UNDER COVER LOVER

UNDER COVER LOVER VOL 1 (UNDER COVER) 12  - 104437

Limited Ep of special remixes. A-1 is a remix of Nina Sky's hit "Move Your Body" by up and coming producer Mark Militano. With current projects for DJ Heather and Fred Everything in the works Mark goes for a mix reflecting his pop sensibilities. It's a deep and percussion driven take with groovey guitar licks and techy accents. Should work for your soulful and deep crowds as well as the mainstream. B-1 is a redoo of Cassie's "Me and U" by L.A.'s S. Deezy. Stays very true to the original while adding some shuffly house beats and choppy stabs. The sub bass is crushing and when the vocal drops watch out for this party rocker! B-2 features one half of Hustle n Flow in his Mile High guise. With a recent hit on Kolour and new projects coming on Control, Herbal Essence and Greenhouse he takes Q-Tip's classic "Breathe and Stop" and turns
