MM001 : Giom – People EP
Motion Music – US
Freshman
release here from our friend Greg Yuen over at Primal Records. This is actually Giom's first solo EP after
a serious string of dope remixes for labels like Amenti Music and Aroma, and
what a debut release it is! "People" got tons of love in WMC and has
received support from Farina, Heather, Raoul Belmans, LCG and many others thanks
to its wicked vocal and perfect groove. Notts house kingpins Kinky Movement
turn in a quality remix on B1 complete with chunky bass and a sick breakdown .
Giom takes things deeper with "Where U From" on B2, a lush late night
excursion that completes this EP in fine fashion. This record should do some
serious damage over the next few months, an instant classic A1: PEOPLE - B1:

SSR018 : Jazzy Eyewear
Cruise Control – So Sound
Recordings
Ready to feel the heat? and this time coming directly from Miami in summer time, brought to you by Jazzy Eyewear. Last year Fabian toured the world presenting his debut LP "Cruise Control" and here is the first single, which gives title to the album. Ladies and gents, the long awaited 12’ "Cruise Control". Going to the point, the original is a funk bomb, very original drum programming, crazy basses and tweaks, delay changes and a good mixture between wet and dry, laying down this amazing electric groove. To add the cherry on the cake, we have Del's sexy, sassy vocals setting in a trance every girl out there and turning the track into a "Moist Control". The hot short lyrics bring the funk to the dance floor, in such a way where everyone can relate to it. Del has previously worked with Fabian on awesome tracks such as "Gotta be real" on Uma Recordings, "Girls & Boys" on Aroma, "Let me in" on Icon, "Kinky girl" on Kolour and many more. Fabian's productions have been very well received all over the world and you can find his tracks on a wide range of compilations and mixes, from Darren Emerson to Hed Kandi and from Sony to HBO. If you thought the above was hot, flip the record and get ready, 'cause here IK'S DROPIN' THE FUNK BOMB DUB and this is no joke. These guys need no introduction and have been a big influence to many of us all over the world. This jacking groove will carve in your soul, the analog bleep, the chopped up samples, the HOT hats, Del's dub vocal, the fat bass, the funky horns, a phone dialing in tune with the groove and a female vintage vocal adding a generous touch of soul.Awesome rework, Inland Knights style and one more time, taking things to the next level.

SPAT006 : Real Time Hand Motion
The Primetime Man Lotion EP – Spatula City
Hot off the heels of SPAT005, The Sound Republic's Ill at ease 10”, the Spatula City crew is proud to present some more fresh talent with REAL TIME HAND MOTION's Prime Time Man Lotion Ep! These two have been making major waves with blistering originals and remixes over the last year or so, and “Break ya Neck” and “Who Got it” are probably two of the hottest examples of what these guys are capable of. Unbelievable studio trickery in the vein of SpatulaCity label bosses The Sound Republic, RTHM deliver funky grooves, dance floor fire starters, and were without question one of the most talked-about artists at this year's WMC. This is only the beginning of what will surely be a long career for this Nashville duo. Chicago's Sexual Chocolate (of Junky Trunk Records fame) delivers a nasty Dubsided-esque wobly-bassline stomper of a remix for “Break ya Neck” while the original funks, shuffles and grooved its way in to the boxes of all of the underground heavy hitters with massive support from Dj mes, The Sound Republic, Diz, Raoul Belmans, Justin Martin, The Inland Knights are more. Keep your ear to the underground and know that when you see a RTHM record, its a buy-on-sight affair.These two aren’t messing around. Another stormer from Spatula City!

IRONMAN/MADDERFERRYS (PRYDA) 12 -
105771
Eric Prydz releases an absolute
nuclear weapon of a release for the 8th Pryda installment, once again pushing
the envelope of the electro club sound WAY past what everyone else is doing at
the moment. 'Ironman' is a dark, smoke-filled room builder with an almost
'French Kiss' sense of percussion and slow-building anticipation as the sounds
gradual intensify before the main break unleashes some SEVERE electro-disco
devastation. Imagine Eric and Serge Santiago joining forces and you get the
gist of it! The AA side 'Madderferrys' has been a mainstay in Eric's sets for
a while with its melodic building feel and cool synth work enveloped in Eric's
deep atmospheric swirling sounds.(PRY008)ELECTRO HOUSE- 7/30/07-UK
PEVEN EVERETT
SEXY MAKE UP (DEFECTED) 12 - 105626
The third single from Peven Everett's
acclaimed 'Powersoul' which has been cited as his best work to date.
"Sexy Make Up" is Peven Everett at his best, telling us a story from
the heart. His vocal delivery is, as always, second to none. On remix duties
are the Tarantulaz (Sir Piers and Toni Economides), hot off the heels of their
single on OM Records with Monique Bingham entitled 'They Forgot It. The guys
have done an awesome job taking this one straight to the soulful dancefloor.(SEXYPEV01)HOUSE-

album, featuring Prins Thomas, Unit 4 and Black Mustang providing the future
disco firepower. First up is the Prins Thomas mix of 'On Just Foot', a chugging
Italo disco groover led by a rolling arpeggiated b-line, quirky analogue stabs,
vocoder vocal hits and wicked conga-laden beats. Proper floor-pleasing Italo
workout. Next we have the Unit 4 mix of 'An Other Skin', more b-line driving
space disco with dark sounds and huge synth lines. Finally the Black Mustang
mix of 'Constantly No Respect' is a hard-hitting percussive jam exploring the
darker side of the Italo universe.(LOEB005)ELECTRO DISCO- 7/23/07-UK

105046

"Love Generation" and "Sun Is Shining" and is set to be as
large as both. Yves has expertly blended uplifting house and a reggae vocal to

12 - 105683
Sultry Blue is a unique collaboration
between Baltic deep house heroes and Californain vocalist Monica Brooke who
has provided many a vocal for OM's Rithma. The original mix is a sultry slice of deep
house which will definitely please fans of Rithma / OM's output and
for kicks and giggles they've enlisted Myna's Da Sunlounge to bump things up on
the remix. Their mix has a typically swinging, funked up bumping house vibe
perfect for the Inland Knights fans out there. DELAYED LAST WEEK, NOW IN
STOCK!(RYRA004)HOUSE- 7/30/07-AU
JOSH WINK
HIGHER STATE OF CONSCIOUSNESS (STRICTLY
R) 12 - 105765
The return of the titan that is Josh
Wink. 'Higher State Of Consciousness' readies itself to deploy its now legendary riff to a
whole new set of ears. It was a tough call to get the remixers right on such a
complete record that has more than stood the test of time, but Australia's
Dirty South Vs TV Rock embrace the twisted elements of this timeless original
breakbeat anthem, delivering an update that has fast become the big record in
the boxes of all the key spinners. Also featuring remixes from Marco V and
Barrat + Falconi, as well as the original Tweekin' Acid Funk
mix.(SR12640)HOUSE- 7/30/07-UK

TOKYO BLACK STAR
STILL SEQUENCE *AME* (INNERVISIONS) 12
- 105847
Alex From Tokyo serves up a rock solid
4 tracker that runs the gambit for the genre of deep house. Starts off with a
super deep broken beat cut that is sure to get the floor rockin. Following
that, the boys from AME do their magic and add some dark piano and a bit more
nastiness. Not to mention the very Carl Craig-esque strings! On the flip,
things get more bouncy with another Detroit influenced jam, followed by a very conga driven
groover.(IV12)HOUSE- 7/30/07-GE
BRETT JOHNSON & DJ HEATHER
EVERYTHINGS ELEC *L SOLOMON* (DOTBLEEP)
12 - 105718
This underground anthem from two of
the biggest names in U.S house was originally released in demo form on a
limited edition release on Classic's Ten Series. Now 'Everything's Electric' is
back by demand featuring new versions by both Brett himself as well as Luke
Solomon! Proper twisted bleepy jackin' house with funky b-lines and big
808-style beats that push the party vibes higher than Lindsay Lohan fresh out of
rehab. Luke Solomon's mix goes down a dirty electronic pathway with enough bass
to shake yer fillings loose. Must have!!(DBR018)HOUSE- 7/23/07-UK

WONDERFUL (SOUL HEAVEN) 12 - 105716
After a short hiatus this Defected sub
label comes back in a BIG way with this killer release by Chicago's Terry
Hunter {MAW}, featuring the vocals of Terisa Griffin. 4 mixes to choose from,
led by the smooth vocals and impeccably soulful production of the a-side's
'Main Club Mix'. This track opens with a rolling conga and clap-fueled groove
before the smooth bassline and keys enter and sweep you away. Blissful chords
and the vocal then come fully into play. Next up is 'Part Sixx', a dubbed-out
version of the track with great vocal processing and a sunny, uplifting vibe.
More quality on the flip, first 'Terry's Alt Remix Main' and finally 'Terry's
Wonderful Dub'.(SHR014)HOUSE- 7/30/07-UK

JORGE JARMILLO & NINO ANTHONY
FUNK SHOP (SUBLIMINAL) 12 - 105766
Down right dirty, 'The Funk Shop' is
nasty house music dipped in acid-electro-funk made for the big room. If you are
shy or fragile you might as well pass on this beast of a release. The
production on both mixes is pristine, hot around the edges, and perfect for the
club. So get ready, this is a big ride with a vocal and a dub cut geared for
the hips.(SUB184)HOUSE- 7/30/07-UK
LEE KALT & ARTHUR EXPLICIT
SUGAR FREE / SPECIAL K (SUBLIMINAL) 12
- 105777
New York-based DJ/producer Lee Kalt
joins Arthur Explicit and vocalist Missus M for his latest production. As heard
on Erick Morillo's latest Subliminal Sessions compilation, "Special
K" is a true club banger and has a hypnotic and quite druggy big room
vibe.(SUB185)HOUSE- 7/30/07-UK
THOMAS ANDERSSON
UPWARDLY MOBILE
(BPITCH CONTROL) 12 - 105861
Thomas Andersson returns for another
red hot release for Bpitch Control. A bangin electro house cut thats not too
over the top. Should work well for those who fancy the genre, as well as those
who hate the very existance of it. On the flip, things get freaky. Very nervous
drums with a grinding sound lying just underneath everything to add some mental
madness onto the dancefloor.(BPC154)MINIMAL TECHNO- 7/30/07-GE
MARTIN EYERER & STEPHEN HINZ
TUCAN *FANCIULI* (RENAISSANCE) 12 -
105113
Incredible new gear from Martin Eyerer
& Stphen Hinz. "Tucan" has a deep electro meets minimal sound
like Poker Flat mixed with Joia / Prydz featuring a monster synth hook that
infects the brain and the feet while tough minimal beats push things along with
bubbly analog bass. Grammy nominated talent Nic Fanciuli provides the remix, a
more hypnotic speaker rattling rub that builds nicely around that awesome synth
freak out hook with great effects that trip over themselves and build into mini
frenzies. Rounding off the package is "Apollo" another shaking
minimal tech bomb that Digweed is playing multiple times in his
sets.(RENX047)HOUSE- 7/30/07-UK
ALEX METRIC
WHATSHEWANTS (MARINE PARADE) 12 -
105778
Adam Freelan's Marine Parade imprint
steps into the Nu Rave arena with the signing of Alex Metric to the label and
the releaseof 'Whatshewants'. a grungy techno/electro/house/rave sensory
assault. Packing an array of chopped-up samples, loops, vocal hits and
uber-twisted synth work, Metric delivers a tune influenced by everything from
80's pop to Daft Punk and Ed Banger. The flipside tune 'Breakin Hearts' comes
with some chunky guitar glitch given the trademark Metric acid wash and nu-rave
beats.(MAPA040)NU RAVE- 7/30/07-UK
JEROENSKI
BACK ONCE AGAIN *SOUL CENTRAL* (CR2)
12 - 105783
Dutch DJ Jeroenski delivers one of the

105784
Originally released to critical acclaim
last year, Dave Spoon's "At Night" returns complete with a fantastic
new vocal from Lisa Maffia and mixes from the Beat Vandals. Dave Spoon provides
three mixes, a club, dub and instrumental but the full vocal mix is by far our
fave. It features Lisa getting sultry, grimey and slightly R&B at times
delivering a powerful performance that will undoubtedly launch this club killer
into the charts.(ELECTR009R)HOUSE- 7/30/07-FR
VINCENZO & J. MULL/E DAVENPORT
STOCKTOWN / EYESPEAK (LIEBE DETAIL) 12
- 105850
Another righteous split 12" here
for the Liebe Detail label. This time, the A-side belongs to Joel Mull &
Vincenzo. The Stockholm duo deliver the goods in the form of a deeper tech
house cut, that comes off more pumpin than what you first expect. Thick compressed
drums, and some nice subtle synths and a hypnotic bleepy thing make the whole
thing come together for something kinda nice! On the flip, Ed Davenport gets
things bouncin with his brand of house. On the deeper side, but not too deep.
Could easily hear JOHN TEJADA or JOSH WINK serving this one up for the housier
moments of a DJ set.(LIEBE018)HOUSE- 7/30/07-GE

first instalment from the brand new 'We Love' mix album series. This awesome 2
tracker features 'R2D2' on the a-side, a nutty hypnotic minimal track rocking
rude bass spurts, wonky percussion and a pumping minimal vibe that feels like
Ricardo Villalobos on too much ketamine. The flipside track 'Sound Of The

Peter Brown returns to Fine Tune after
his highly successful "Feel Good". "The Game Of Love" is an
energetic dancefloor workout with building grooves and a rocking French house
meets electro house vibe that will go over well with fans of Sebastien Ingrosso

PAN POT *VAN DOWNSKI*
MAFFIA RMX PT 2 *AGNES* (EINMALEINS)
12 - 105846
Final set of remixes of Pan Pot's
"Maffia". The Camea & Barem mixes are still big sellers around
these parts, and these mixes match them, at the very least. Lee Van Dowski runs
the techy and hypnotic business while Agnes grooves it all out with lots of FX
and a bass heavy rhythm.(EINMAL023)MINIMAL TECHNO- 7/30/07-GE
GABRIEL ANANDA
STREAM OF CONCIOUSNESS (KARMAROUGE) 12

Gabriel Ananda comes with another one
for the Karmarouge label. This one is a late night tech house cut, blissed out
with lots of strings to float you out of the night. On the flip, things get a
bit more chunky with some more upbeat percussion and an extremely disorienting
synth sound thats hard to deny it's funkyness.(KR27)TECH HOUSE- 7/30/07-GE

105863
Peter Grummich is always a wild card
with his releases. You never know exactly what youre going to get before you
drop the needle. For this one on Mule Electronic, he tones it down... ALOT!
Very minimal here. Warm pads here and there to drift you away into the night.
On the flip, he pumps it up some. Very old school feeling bassline and
pads.(MULEE035)TECH HOUSE- 7/30/07-GE
ALBATROSS / TULLIO DI PISCOPO

Albatross's "Ha-Ri-Ah"
awesome pre-cosmic afro piece that found favor with a whole host of Italian
dj's and one Mr Harvey. Previously only available on a rare 7" version and
never before in this extended version. This joyous dancefloor chant is now cut
super fat for discotheque play. On the flip the Supersounds crew uncover Tullio
di Piscopo's "Temptation". Everyone knows stop bajon by mr piscopo
but there are also a few awesome and very hard to find earlier releases from
the primavera man. This is insane percussion driven european funk driven tune
has Prins Thomas and Lindstrom written all over it.(TEN200)EDIT- 7/30/07-UK

Remix beast of the moment Micky Slim
works his magic on Seb Fontaine & Jay P's "Do The Do", injecting
the track with dark brooding and quite twisted and fucked up dancefloor power.
The build on this one is filthy and explosive and is like a mixture of Benny
Benassi, Prydz and Jesse Rose.(MTR008)HOUSE- 7/30/07-UK

105775
Evgeny Bukreev aka Freska delivers a
blinding 2 track slice of electro-tinged tech house gear for the established
Darkroom Dubs imprint. 'North From South' rides a punchy 4/4 groove with
crunchy lo-fi percussion, deep rolling melodics and a slowly filtered-in b-line
that fully drops in with full on reese-style subs. The violin-like synths and
strategic chord shifts add a lush, melancholic vibe that works a
treat.(DRD015)TECH HOUSE- 7/30/07-UK

New one from the Was Kids label from
Senil. Sparse tech house with pads that feel very organic and rather old school
meets new with modern drum sounds and FX useage. On the flip, things get a bit
more bassy and groovy. Kinda like a new take on some of DBX's older
work.(WK011)TECH HOUSE- 7/30/07-GE
SMITH N HACK
TO ALL OUR DISCO FRIENDS (SMITHNHACK)
12 - 105857
Heres a special re-release of the
strongest track from the ULTRA-HOT Smith N Hack LP from 2002 that was composed
entirely of samples from Hamilton Bohannan called "Tribute". It's
been LONG gone for years, but theyve decided to release just the strongest cut
from it here. Youve probably heard the track before, as it's quite catchy.
Absolutely ROCKIN bassline to start it off, then a very twangy guitar for the
catchy parts, as well as some strong stabs of drums and guitars here and there.
It was big for everyone from DANNY TENAGLIA to LAURANT GARNIER to even RICHIE
HAWTIN! Dont sleep on it this time around, as it might not be around very long
or ever again.(SMTHHCKLTD)HOUSE- 7/30/07-GE
ELTRON
ITS MY MUSE (FESTPLATTEN) 12 - 105864
Strong release from Eltron here. It
starts with a SUPER deeeep remix from Dave DK. Not really like what were used
to out of him. Late night tech house with really warm pads that pan from time
to time to disorient in strange ways, along with shuffly drums to keep the
spunk up. On the flip are 2 originals from Eltron. The first one is a jumpy and
funky number that should please those into the Boys Noize or Tiefschwarz thing,
but like it to be toned down a tad. The closer is the original of the remix on
the A-side. Shuffly and techy drums but at house tempo. Some nice strings that
make an appearence here and there with some dark piano chords for the
breakdown.(FESTPLAT36)TECH HOUSE- 7/30/07-GE

Travel' into a Carl Craigs-eque beast with hidden references to Lil Louis'
French Kiss. The track evolves from a techno beat into the Chick Corea's style
jazz funk original. Yosaku has turned the track 'Brazillia' from Amedeo Tomassi
into pure deck candy with both an original and beats edit. These are warm
broken Brazilian beats with carnival percussion, piano and trumpet all

3rd and final 12" installment of

tough electronic house affair riddled with rolling delay lines, spacey keyboard
sounds and driving 4/4 beats, sounding like Rob pulled out nearly every
production trick in his arsenal in order to ensure that this track kicks ass.
And it does!! The flip introduces you to 'Tarja's Dream', the polar opposite to
the a-side with a warm, dub house approach that sounds like a drowsy Terry Lee

classic. If you can even find one an original 12" will likely cost you
over $150 and has only has 3-4 minutes of playable grooves in the middle of a
pretty rank cover version. Supersounds have extended the break and dispensed
with the rest and turned this track into a killer, killer tune. Supermax's

Kat returns with DJ only ZE edits of
two tracks from the infuential label that fused the parallel NYC dance and punk
scenes to create a new sound that they aptly christened Mutant Disco. Kid
Creole and Material are the artists getting the once over from DJ Greg Wilson,
the oracle on this vital and misunderstood period in music. No one can argue
that Mr Wilson is the perfect man for the job. Having already paid Credit to
the Edit, Greg Wilson tastefully reconstructs Kid Creole and the Coconuts' 1981
hit 'I'm a Wonderful Thing, Baby'. Emphasising the driving piano and mid-tempo
beats, 'Wonderful' is in safe hands with Greg Wilson in control. Impossible not
to move to this! On the flip we find Material's 'Over and Over' being edited by
Greg, putting the funk into jazz-funk. Material were an early Bill Laswell
project that delved deep into dancefloor-orientated jazz.(KAT03)EDIT-

Lowdown Brittle is webster defined Someone Else. Crunchy, bouncy, and trippy
with all sorts of clicks and whirls, and lets not forget the vocal snippets.
Following that is the Fusiphorm remix, which pumps the cut up some with a
darker bassline and fx washes, all of which are Fusiphorm trademarks. On the
flip, is the true trademark of quality, Mr Josh Wink, who lent his remix skills
to the Foundsound crew out of the fact that they are both based in Philly.

JOHNNY FIASCO
TUNNEL VISION EP (CONTROL) 12 - 105841
Fiasco givesus a very diverse set of
tracks here. A1's "Go Deep" is a thick latin tinged number, based
around an infectious piano loop and monster bassline. "My House" is a
traditional Fiasco acid track, with full shuffling drums and twisted,
squelching 303 lines filtering up and down throughout. Flip for "The
Message", a classic disco sample excursion that is highly effective on the
dancefloor, polished off with the climactic female vocal "love is the
message". Last but certainly not least in the B2 position is
"Hijacked". with it's abrasive bassline and clicky drums, it's the
sort of vibe we've been hearing recently from Hipp-E and the Odori crew. Vocal
bits throughout borrow from James Brown-esque funk to MFSB to the Peech Boys
and on.(CR005)HOUSE- 7/25/07-US

Muffler has become the latest addition

'Waves Breaking' 'Mermaids' is a track as elegant and beautiful as the name

ocean trenches come correct with a swelling bassline and a rolling Balearic
guitar hook. Already getting much hype. But thereÆs more to this 12" with
the sublime 'Waves Breaking' on the flip, a consummate slice of electric soul.
The intro washes over you before the hypnotizing piano hook snares you in like
a siren and you come crashing down on the rocks of the drop. As the track
progresses the mood shifts from ambience to energy as synths that would make
Vangelis blush roll onto the scene and elevate the track to a whole new
level.(NHS124)DRUM & BASS- 7/26/07-UK

BREAK
DIFFUSION/LOCKED OUT (SUBTITLES) 12 -
84208
Proper proper proper bass and drum
action, from underground don Break. Sparse yet full, dark yet uplifting.
'Diffusion' offers the usual sick undercarriage we expect from Break, Gritty
snarling bass and urgent beats deliver the funk. Sc Fi strings slide as touches
of melody emerge. 'Locked Out' locks on with a punishing groove built from sub
zero subs and techno bleeps. Arctic drifts topped off with killer percussion,
that just keeps driving home the message....You need to buy this record.

energises, as the acid trippy backdrop and inspired bass/synth manipulation
makes for a fresh exhilarting ride. DJ support from Friction, Logistics, Ray
