GREENS KEEPERS
THE COLOR PINK / SOME HELP (GREENS
KEEPERS) 12 - 106990
SYNTAX EXCLUSIVE! This one might as
well be a mini LP with four outstanding cuts from James Curd, Nick Maurer and
the rest of the crew. 'Some Help' is every bit as catchy as their blockbuster
'Lotion' more on a deep funky house tip with bouncy beats and a great vocal.
The title cut 'The Color Pink' features a big disco injected bassline and a
punkier Talking Heads vibe. On the flip 'Days of The Week' features a clever
vocal racing through the days of the week and some great bits of jazz funk
reminiscent of earlier G Swing material with an updated and funkier feel.
Rounding off this awesome package is 'Wish I Could Fly' which has a heavy funk
influence, great touches of percussion and that unmistakable Greens Keepers
dancefloor vibe.(GKM021)HOUSE-10/08/07-FR
KERRI CHANDLER
THE DICK DICKLER (MAX TRAX) 12 -
106996
Kerri follows up his "The June 23
ep" on Max Trax with a sizzling four tracker of patent deep house action
with lots of retro influences, some vocals from himself and more deep jacking
beats. Kerri's consistancy is getting scary, definitely one of our top fave
producers.(MT22221)HOUSE-10/08/07-FR
UNDERWORLD
CROCODILE *HUNTEMANN* (DIFFERENT) 12 -
107005
Underworld return from a hiatus that
was way to long and drop this first teaser single from what's sure to be the
album of the year. This first of two 12"s for 'Crocodile' features the
original mix, a quite techy vocal number with deep percussive fuelled grooves
and an astonishing remix from Huntemann who injects the track with darker more
menacing electro energy(4511082130)TECH HOUSE-10/08/07-BE
UNDERWORLD
CROCODILE *AME/HELLER* (DIFFERENT) 12
- 107006
Second set of mixes for the teaser single
from Underworld's forthcoming full length. This package features an Ame
retooling which is every bit as deeply hypnotic and breath taking as you'd
expect and a Pete Heller mix that actually sounds more like Underworld than the
original. Very cool.(4511082131)HOUSE-10/08/07-BE
SWELL SESSION
SWELL COMMUNICATION *WEBSTER*
(FREERANGE) 12 - 107043
Swell Sessions get taken into deep
house territory courtesy of the legendary Charles Webster and Jimpster. Charles
Webster remixes 'All Of Me' and what a stunning rework he returns. It features
a hypnotic bassline, warm chords/pads and atmospherics and perfect use of the
gorgeous original vocal. High Pierre styled strings come in to add an extra layer of
tension and build the drama nicely. On the flip Jimpster drops the funky house
remix of 'Prepared To Go', an immersive dubby deep house
treat....(FR095)HOUSE-10/08/07-UK

JAMIROQUAI
FEELS LIKE IT SHOULD *PRYDZ* (WHITE)
12 - 106454
Eric Prydz works his magic on
Jamiroquai's "Feels Like It Should" giving the track a proper deep
electro feel working the hell out of the melody in a fresh new groove with dope
dancefloor beats. Top quality shit as always from Mr
Prydz.(QUAI001)HOUSE-10/08/07-UK
FURRY PHREAKS W TERRA DIVA
ALL OVER THE WORLD (MISO) 12 - 106522

dub, an Atjazz dub and a dope Jazzanova mix.(MISO008)HOUSE-10/08/07-UK
PS PROJECT *DJ SNEAK & P
WEEKS
AROUND VILLEJUIF
(ROBSOUL) 12 - 106864
Dj Sneak & Phil Weeks are back
together for a funky house feast on the Robsoul label. 'Around Villejuif' is a
deep jacking tune with touches of filtering, plenty of drum funky and clever
programming and a nasty touch of analog bumping synth bass. The second mix of
this tune features more jacking funk and less filtering and adds some slick
breakdown and start/stop action. On the flip 'Gods House' does borrow a few
samples from the DHS classic but works them in such a deep and funky way it's just
irresistable. Getting much props from Derrick Carter and Brett
Johnson.(ROBSOUL57)HOUSE-10/01/07-FR
MARCUS WORGULL & MR WHITE
SPELLBOUND (INNERVISIONS) 12 - 107039
Marcus Worgull teams up with Mr White,
the worlds best Robert Owens impersonater, for an uber-deep house outing for
the Innervisons label. The lead cut is a dark and deep cut in the vein of,
well... the Innervisions label! Containing a nice dose of Mr White's vocals.
Following that, we have the instrumental version for those that don't fancy the
vocal. And to close it out, another Fingers influenced deep cut.(IV13)DEEP

fresh release on Data. Here the four piece genre busting outfit finds another
one of their gems getting the remix treatment. Magick Johnson & Tom Neville
both turn in killer remixes of 'Don't Be Shy'. Neville is first up and turns in
a wicked acid tainted mix with great editing of the original vocals and trippy
effects and programming. Sounds like a mixture of RZ, Mazi, Radioslave and
Switch. Magik J follows with a deep underground mix that features a bouncy
analog bassline, crunchy beats and freaky effects.(SPEK007X)HOUSE-10/08/07-UK

EVERYBODY FREAKIN (C2) 12 - 106899
Australia's biggest dance sensation, Dirty South joins M.Y.N.C
Project for this huge release on the C2 imprint. "Everybody Freakin"
is bound to get just that reaction on the dancefloor with dope hooky electro
tinged synth action, huge beats, and nice building moments. My Best Friend
producer Piedmont provides the remix, a more minimal jacking rub that would sit
nicely next to Poker Flat or Liebe Detail flavored material.(12C2067)HOUSE-10/08/07-UK
JUICE STRING
SEX WEED *R SANCHEZ* (STEALTH) 12 -
106902
Juice String is a saucy new

Heres a monster for ya! Dave Hughes
works as a sound engineer in L.A. and packs a whollop of production techniques into his
debut EP for John Tejada's Palette recordings. The A-side is a dirty beast of a
percussive minimal jam, while ending on a pretty note with Detroity chord
stabs. On the flip, things get a bit scarier and darker but still has the funk
you were egtting from the A-side. Solid stuff that rocks on a good
soundsystem.(PALETTE047)TECH HOUSE-10/08/07-GE

NEED IN ME *JAN DRIVER* (PINEAPPLE) 12
- 107084
BIG BUZZ on this latest Gus Gus

to far from the big rocking Dirty South sound (no wonder why they're playing
it). Remixes come from Jan Driver who launches this tune with huge new synth
grooves and a more distorted peak time vibe. Trick & Cubik turn in a wicked

SAMBADA EP (DESSOUS) 12 - 107044
Here comes a beautiful tech house
number from Solomun. His stuff on the DIYnamic label were big for us around

mentioning that they all are pretty slammin!(IMM032)MINIMAL TECHNO-10/08/07-GE
JAMES PRIESTLEY & DAN
BERKSON
CHARIOTS *MOTORCITYSOUL* (SIMPLE) 12 -
107052
New slices of deep tech house from the
duo James Priestley & Dan Berkson. Deeper and pretty stuff that fits right
at home on the Simple label, who is known for this sort of sound. On the
flipside, Motorcitysoul does one hell of a remix combining elements of the
German side of things, as well as the Detroit side of
things.(SIMPLE0725)HOUSE-10/08/07-GE
KJ GIBBS
OUTLAW APPRECIATION (TITBIT) 12 -
107054
New bit of bouncey and housey stuff
from KJ Gibbs (aka Kenneth James Gibson, or Apendics Shuffle) on the Titbit
house label. 3 originals from Mr Gibson here with the production techniques you
would expect from him, with a touch of added boompty boomp. Solid house jams
that should work well in most any setting. Also contains a nasty remix from
Giancarlo Lanza aka D.A.T.A.(TITBIT07)HOUSE-10/08/07-GE
FERGIE
SHIFTY (CRAFT) 12 - 107079
Craft Music follows up Lutzenkirchen's
recent 'Brazilian Experience' with three killers from Belfast's Fergie
(No relation to that pant pissing Black Eye Pea). What we get are three dirty,
haunting deep tunes that fit perfectly with recent label offerings, trippy,
techy, driving and perfect for those more twisted times on the dancefloor. 'Up
And Over' is particularly twisted with sparse urgent synth arpeggios, bits of
dubby psychedelic delays and off kilter little synth builds that break back in
with 'Nervous Acid' styled drops.(CRAFT026)HOUSE-10/08/07-GE
MARC ROMBOY VS STEPHAN BODZIN
ARIEL / MAB (HERZBLUT) 12 - 107081
Longtime friends & production
partners Marc Romboy & Stephan Bodzin team up once again to sick effect on
this Herzblut release. 'Ariel' features a droning buzz that sounds like a plane
divebombing the dancefloor while slick funky shuffling beats and minimal
percussion drive the groove forward. Very catchy, funky and recognizable in the
vast sea of unmemorable cuts out there. On the flip 'Mab' is a bleepier more
minimal shuffler with quirky melodies, twisting grooves and haunting
sounds.(HERZ006)TECHNO-10/08/07-GE
NACHO MARCO
THE LOVE *MIKE SHANNON* (LOUDEAST) 12
- 107083
Nacho Marco returns from his lauded
release on Freerange to deliver this funking slice of deep house for Loudeast.
'The Love' has a similar feel good vibe as his Freerange release and features
deep jacking beats, delicious electronic melodies and uplifting strings / pads.
Wagon Repair's Mike Shannon provides the remix, a techier more brooding rub
which Troy Pierce has been dropping in his sets.(LDS001)HOUSE-10/08/07-GE
DAPAYK & PADBERG
BLACK BEAUTY THE ALBUM *DP* (MOS FERRY
PRODUCTIONS) DP - 107087
First full length from Dapayk &
Padberg in quite a while. Deep dubby percussion with infinite deep grooves that
spank their ways through dark clubs providing the soundtrack to an atypical
night out. Strange sounds for strange people. Getting rave reviews from Mike
Monday, Mr C, Tom Clark and Italoboyz.(MFP031LP)MINIMAL TECHNO-10/08/07-GE

electro house synths and even tougher dancefloor
beats.(RTFB001)HOUSE-10/08/07-UK
FEAR OF THEYDON
REMIXES (SUNDAY BEST) 12 - 107116
Take Lemon Jelly, add a healthy
helping of Beyond The Wizards Sleeve, a sprinkly of In Flagranti, some Optimo
and Quiet Village and you begin to get confused, and a starting point
for Fear Of Theydon's incredible sound. They're quite unique, funky ranging
from deep abstract Warp styled remixes to more dancefloor oriented indie
killers. We love this ep which features four remixes from Fear Of Theydon who
have been donned 'The Best Unsigned Act' of 2006 and judging from this remix
package, we'd agree wholeheartedly.(SBEST49)LOUNGE / DOWNBEAT-10/08/07-UK
ALEXANDER ROBOTNIK

Hot remix package from Creme.

Electronique (an amazing chicago house remix with a strong bass line..) and a more
straight 4/4 mix by Robotnick himself. Each mix is pretty fucking amazing here

IM A VOCODER (CLONE CLASSIC CUTS) 12 -
106779
Highly sought after Italo classic,
originally released on Il Discotto Productions in 1982. Fantastic song about
what being a vocoder is like. One of the funniest & sneakiest but super
cool and hip talodisco records ever now once again available thanks to Clone

REJEKTS
ES KUBELLS (REJEKT) 12 - 106842
Sounding like a hybrid between a
Crosstown Rebels release and a Get Physical release, this is the first release
on Rejekt Musik. Already getting support from M.A.N.D.Y, Claude Vonstroke and
Layo & Bushwacka, this label and the Rejekts (long time Sankeys Soap &
Tribal Gathering Resident DJ Iain Taylor) are definitely something to be on the
lookout for.(REJEKT001)HOUSE-10/08/07-UK
BATTANT
KEVIN 1987 *WEATHERALL* (KILL THE DJ)
12 - 106992
Incredible slice of indie-electro-punk

the remix, slicing it up into a Stone Roses meets Chicken Lips styled banger
currently getting mad props from Joakim.(KTDJ011)ELECTRO-10/08/07-FR
DAVID TORT & DJ RUFF
LA GIRLS *DJ DISCIPLE* (SPIDER) 12 -
107014
Big tune at the moment for Erick
Morillo and Roger Sanchez, 'L.A. Girls' is a sexy electro house cut with a
heavy Spanish vibe in its original form. Dj Disciple's mix adds an eastern vibe
thanks to some wicked new melodies, deep jacking percussion and perfect use of
the sexy vocals.(SPIDER007T)HOUSE-10/08/07-FR

HOSH comes over to the Stil Von Talent

SPEKTRE
MYTH (DANCE ELECTRIC) 12 - 107080
Spektre returns to Oliver Huntemann's
Dance Electric with their third rock solid release. Their twisted take on
modern dark minimalism has earned them fans like Tiga, Oxia, Miss Kitten and of
course Mr Huntemann. 'Myst' is definitely one of their strongest releases to
date with dusky trancey elements backed by wobbly basslines, tough driving
beats and warped sounds & effects. The breakdown on this tune is old school
and goes off! 'Winterfall' is a more stripped down cut with really pumping
beats, off kilter synths, crunchy sounds and nasty effects. Has a cool
Trentemoller vibe.(DAN016)HOUSE-10/08/07-GE
VANGELIS / CLAUDE LARSON
MULTI TRACK SUGGESTION/64K RAM

We're nearly at the end of the Cloud

given the full 12" treatment for the first time. Vangelis
"Multi-Track Suggestion" is simply awesome for for freaky dancing or
chilling, gently re eq'd and spread across a whole side of a 12" like
never before. Claude Larson's '64k Ram' is simply bonkers, off-kilter stuff
from a super-rare library album.(CLOUD008)EDIT-10/08/07-UK

The Radius imprint continues to
impress us with their seemingly unending supply of fresh new electro/italo
disco goodies. Here Belguims own Guiseppe Manuele provides the fresh disco funk
with three cuts of future/retro disco perfect for fans of Eskimo / Lindstrom

MARTIN RUSHENT
DISCO UNLIMITED (TIRK) 12 - 106608
You might not know Martin Rushent's
name but you're bound to know a few of the bands he's produced, most notably
Human League, The Stranglers, The Buzzcocks and XTC amongst others. This debut
single "Itchy Hips" is a piece of late 70's styled disco with a
modern twist, full vocal and full disco motion. The dub has a wicked RONG vibe
to it.(TIRK028)DISCO-10/08/07-UK
ARNE WEINBERG
PARABOLUM (AW RECORDINGS) 12 - 106807
If you're into the deep undulating dub
sounds of Chain Reaction, DO NOT MISS THIS WICKED RELEASE from Arne Weinberg. Heavy
dub delays and Detroit techno sounds on the title cut 'Parabolum' with
'Microscopic' heading down a similarly deep Detroit avenue with gorgeous
melodies and less empasis on the heavy delays. Rounding off this amazing
release is 'Omega Rising' another slice of the deepest techno
around.(AW009)HOUSE-10/08/07-NL
ARSENAL
SHU QI NI DE TOU FA *KRAML* (PLAYOUT)
12 - 106828
Excellent remix package here. First up
is Andre Kraml who turns in a sleazy underground mix of "The Coming",
very much in the dirty jacking electronic vein of his releases on Crosstown
Rebels. On the flip you'll find a Midnight Mike remix of "Shu Qi Ni De Tou
Fa", sinister, dark and a real rework masterpiece totally tearing apart
the original vocal sung in Chinese.(POM007)HOUSE-10/08/07-UK
KIT CLAYTON & SUTEKH
I LEFT MY HEART IN SAN FRAN (ADJUNCT)
12 - 107027
West coast boys Kit Clayton &
Sutekh hit us with a big one on the Adjunct label. A split 12" here with
an original from Mr Clayton and an original from Sutekh. Kit's is a mean one,
pumpin, grindy and acidic. Broken beats with dirty basslines and lots of FX
swirling around. Sutekh's is more like what were used to from him. Broken beats
with the bounce he is known for. Also a catchy synth line that has classic
written all over it. Also contains remixes from Dilo and Jorge
Savoretti.(ADJUNCT16)TECH HOUSE-10/08/07-GE
PIGON
PROMISES (DIAL) 12 - 107030
Pigon brings us a rock solid 3 tracker
of the deep tech house variety. 3 deep dark and moody cuts that have late
nights and early mornings written all over them. Some of the nicest stuff we've
heard on Dial in quite a while.(DIAL039)TECH HOUSE-10/08/07-GE
STRATEGY
PACIFIC AGENDA (DRECK) 12 - 107031
Strategy is a producer based out of Portland who has
had a huge amount of respect in the west coast techo community for some years
now, and is finally getting more stuff out there. This one for the Dreck label
is some completely deep mental madness at it's best! Think Theo Parrish and
Basic Channel collaborating and this is what you would get. Keep your eyes
peeled for more from this guy! We have a feeling he will continue to do great
things in 2008 and beyond.(DRECK14)TECH HOUSE-10/08/07-GE

FLYING LOTUS
RESET (WARP) 12 - 107098
Debut Warp EP from one of the world's
freshest and most anticipated production talents, and (much publicised) blood
relation to Alice Coltrane. "Reset" is the first taste of new
material from the Lotus and just doesn't disappoint, offering up some of the
heaviest, most cleverly produced beats we've heard this year. The trick here
is, of course, the robust production, making use of an almighty low-end that
underpins every track, accompanied by a filthy swing that Madlib would be proud
to call his own(WAP228)ELECTRONICA-10/08/07-UK

synth line that will drive the whole dancefloor completely mad! If you were
into the one on Orac a couple weeks ago (and you damn well SHOULD have been),

Oliver Lieb don's his Spicelab guise
once again for this double dose of dark demented tech funk. Definitely on the
more techno side of the spectrum, 'Re:Break' has dirty synth action, hard
hitting beats and a thumping bassline which gives the tune some crazy rhythmic
action. 'Re:Start' on the flip is a similarly fashioned dark and dirty technoid
bomb perfect for fans of Claude Vonstroke, Martin Landsky
etc..(HHMA015)TECHNO-10/08/07-GE

FOGS & FROGS EP (UPON YOU) 12 -
107088
Heres a real banger from the Upon You

from The Cheapers is a darker techy number that thumps more than beats. Lots of
FX and deep grooves ala Tim Xavier/Tony Rohr. Definitely a nasty
one.(UY006)TECH HOUSE-10/08/07-GE
STEVE BUG & CLE
SILICON BALLET EP (POKER FLAT) 12 -
106936
Steve Bug & Cle team up for an
outing on Mr Bug's own Poker Flat imprint. This one is a classic example of the
Poker Flat sound in relation to more housey doings. Warm chords with shuffly
percussion and an energy that just builds and builds creating tension as well
as release. Solid work!(PFR88)TECH HOUSE-10/01/07-GE
METALLICA
ENTER SANDMAN *DIRTY FUNKER* (WHITE)

Dirty Funker is up to his dirty tricks
lacing up Metallica's smash "Enter Sandman" into a rocking house
joint. The first mix gets behind the great guitar licks and adds jacking beefy
beats with a bit of the original vocal and nicely programmed grooves. The mix
on the flip has more of a dirty electro house vibe. BACK IN AFTER BLOWING OUT

CALLING CHICAGO (A SECOND SMELL) 12 -
106325
Calling Chicago definitely pays
hommage to one old school Chicago master, namely Marshall Jefferson from whom
the track borrows many production / sound elements. It features a cool spoken
word vocal reminiscent of "Mushrooms", pushing stabs ala "Move
Your Body" and funky swinging beats.(ASS004)HOUSE-10/01/07-BE
DJ YELLOW
FOREVER AND NEVER MORE (SLIP N SLIDE)

DJ YELLOW has always had his finger on
the pulse thus encouraging him to release the first, "Bossa Tres
Jazz" tracks on Yellow Productions label. He signed artists like Salome De
Bahia and has worked with the likes of Masters At Work, Dj Gregory and Martin
Solveig to name but a few. Here for Slip N Slide Dj Yellow drops a sleek and
quite hypnotic deep house number that definitely borrows some of that Dj
Gregory haunting, entrancing synth action. David Alvarado, who we're quite fond
of and haven't seen anything from in quite some time turns in a stunning deep
house mix that will go down big time with Ferrer / Ame fans and rounding off
the package is a mix from Phillip Charles (Ovum). Excellent well rounded
package.(SLIP235)HOUSE-10/01/07-FR

Ireland's Chymera releases his debut
release on NRK after dropping a beast of a release on Josh Wink's Ovum. 'Wish'
has been drawing comparison to the mighty Underground Resistance's
"Knights Of The Jaguar" and oozes with deep undulating techno class
and Detroit influences laced into a deep pulsating rhythmic groove. House,
Techno, Trance heads alike will freak on this one. 'Eucalyptic' on the flip has
an old school Orbital vibe thanks to some great melody work but proper
futuristic drums & grooves.(NRK134)HOUSE- 9/17/07-UK

Vocalist Michelle Amador has a smokey
jazzy voice that has a similar vibe as Amy Winehouse. Here her laid back
soulful jam 'Because of You' gets some dope remixes. Osunlade dons his Yoruba
Soul monniker for his rub, a deep electronic mix that fits perfectly into the
Ame/Ferrer sound as of late, super sexy and soulful. Atjazz provide a minimal
breaky mix that lets Michelle's vocals do all the work while minimal
percussion, deep broken chords and beautiful strings fill in the rest of this
very cool arrangement.(ST007)HOUSE- 9/24/07-UK

crunchy and quite funky and soulful grooves with dirty booming bottom end,
rugged swinging beats, a nice vocal part and twisted bits of noise, crackles

Heres another absolutely fucking
STELLAR release from The Mole. This one is a lil less straight up disco
oriented, and more on the deeper darker side of things. Still mostly made up
from organic samples, but in a much darker way. Also not quite as slow as he
usually gets. This one is around 128 or so. Quite a difference from his usual

Kompakt. The vocal on this beautiful number reminds us a lot of Hird's
"Keep You Hird".(EXEC83)HOUSE- 9/24/07-UK
EBBRO

every groove.(LLQR003)HOUSE- 9/24/07-FR
URBANSKI WOJTEK
VIOLENT VIOLIN (COMPOST) 12 - 106859
'Violent Violin' takes much influence
from Ninja Tune's Cinematic Orchestra as well as Herbie Hancock and Sun Ra to
name a few. It's an emotional slice of electronica perfect for chilling with a
joint or for movie soundtracks. But wait there's more, a full disco motion
remix from Maximilian Skiba which sounds like it came directly from Prins
Thomas or Mudd.(COMP268)DISCO-10/01/07-GE
CATWASH *CHRIS CARRIER*
SUPER BODY (ADULT ONLY) 12 - 106930
Chris Carrier and DJ Wild return to

SWEET N CANDY
47 PANCAKES & 1 JOINT EP
(EINMALEINS) 12 - 106932
Sweet N Candy has always been a
favorite around these parts. Minimal that has a bit more going on it it, but I
supposed that would be semi-maximal? Ahem... anyways. Bumpity basslines and
radmon clickyness with some extra edits to go with the grooves. Getting lots of
airplay from Camea, Mike Shannon and Mike Monday, among many
others.(EINS025)TECH HOUSE-10/01/07-GE

ALTER EGO
WHY NOT *JOAKIM* (KLANG) 12 - 106977
By now we've all heard the original
for this instant classic from Alter Ego. But, ol Joakim from the Versatile camp
is about to step up and crank it out the park. All the craziness of the
original, but with CRAZY editing and many twists and turns. Such a great remix,
as remixes go. And, don't worry, the original is also included if for SOME
reason you don't already have it.(KLANG123R)TECH HOUSE-10/01/07-GE

SWINGERS DELIGHT (PACHA BLUE) 12 -
106602
The original mix of "Swingers
Delight" was an anthem at Pacha Ibiza the entire summer and now finally
finds a vinyl release. For us it's all about the Nacho Marco 'Deep' mix. It has
a delicious Jimpster / Freerange vibe about it with beautiful melodies, deep
hynotic elements and great shuffling beats.(PB006T)HOUSE- 9/24/07-FR

106857
Sasse & Naughty recently
collaborated on Crack & Speed and completely blew us (and many underground
dj's) away. Here the two battle it out for supremacy on the Battle imprint
with each pitching in a track and a remix of eachother's track. The result,
serious dancefloor damage whichever cut you choose to play. Definitely one for
those who like their tunes dirtier.(BAT012)HOUSE-10/01/07-FR
DAVIS & MAY
VOYAXO LIMPAE (MARIPOZA) 12 - 106913
Three killers here, from Davis &
May beginning with 'Ansame Someto' which features a deeply driving and hypnotic
drum groove laced with slick synth riffs, crunchy snare hits and sweet effects.
'Parplez' is the club killer on this one, gritty and crunchy as hell with dope
melodies which juxtapose the darkness nicely. Definitely one for the Great
Stuff fans out there. Rounding off the ep is 'Ligo Greelon' a minimal techno
shaker heavy on the tripped out effects and layered synths.(MARI003)MINIMAL

Roland Appel delivers the next
essential release on Sonar Kollektiv, mixing the deeply hypnotic and soulful
sound of Ame with a synth stab hook that takes over and brings this track into
Pepe Bradock territory. 'Changes' on the flip has a wicked St Germain meets

David K kills it here on his mix of
Simon Baker's "Confused". His rub is as dark, dirty and undulating
underground as they come. Seriously folks this one ain't for the easily scared

Super large French styled house cut

certain hit of theirs and buries it in a pumping slightly filtered house bomb.

SEBASTIAN DAVIDS
NIGHTBIRD *MANUEL TUR* (KINKY VINYL)
12 - 106895
The original mix of 'Nightbird' is a
moody slice of deep house but for us its all about the Manuel Tur (Freerange)
mix on this platter. His mix is a beautifully deep undulating slice of house
business reminiscent of Fred Everything's deeper moments with funky round bass,
clever sound design & effects and a lulling, swaying deep vibe that just doesn't
quit. Getting big props from Justin Martin and

They mysterious Kaliber imprint
returns with another stunning ep of deep emotional and funky music. The a side
is a big tune for Magda and Oliver Koletzki at the moment and features a killer
warped main synth hook, haunting strings / atmospherics and driving jacking
beats. On the flip the psychedelic effects are turned up way past 10 and the
track builds with frantic nervous energy before dropping like a ton of bricks.
Another killer from Kaliber.(KAL015)TECHNO-10/01/07-GE

with the first in the 'Houseworx' series with Muallem. 'I Came To Play'

Oliver Huntemann's Confused imprint

The title cut 'Anxious On Demand' is a fierce slice of electronic dance gear
with modulating synth bass, tough driving beats and moody, emotional synth
work. Big tune for Oxia right now. On the flip, 'Sun Drenched Land' is a more
Hacker inspired workout, with tough driving beats, more great synth work and
raw dancefloor power(CON068)TECHNO-10/01/07-GE
GINO S & SNAKE
LYCAON (NOTORIOUS ELEKTRO) 12 - 106914

are potent ass shaking devices.(NOTO013)HOUSE-10/01/07-GE

almost every genre except drum & bass. It's a stunning breaky electronica
number sounding like a mix of Lemon Jelly and Gentle People in its original
form. Black Dog turn in an Autechre inspired electronica version that wreaks of
funk and old school Warp vibes. Dextro turns in a beautiful melancholic Border
Community / James Holden styled mix and rounding off the package are Mo Wax's

BREATHE IN YOUR FEAR (SPACETALK) 12 -
106648
Following the well received debut from
Kaine, Spacetalk returns with Versatile veterans Future Beat Alliance for their
sophomore offering. The title cut is the most dancefloor friendly and lifts a
sample that sounds suspiciously like it came from Batman Begins and laces the
trippy vocal into an epic acidic cosmic disco groove that Lindstrom has been
beating with regularity. Two more spaced out balearic cosmic treats round off
this excellent second effort from the promising Spacetalk
imprint.(ST002T)HOUSE-10/01/07-BE
EDGAR DIRKSEN
GHOST (WEAVE) 12 - 106799
Edgar Dirksen's "Ghost" has
a buzz on it already thanks to plays from Josh Wink. It's a tough funky minimal

the flip 'Thrir' has a similar tough minimal Poker Flat

After a long and successful career on Superstition, Mijk has recently
re-invented his sound with a hot release on the Kling Klong, Blufin and
International Deejay Gigolo. Here for Frisbee, Mijk's new sound is in full

with more techno and trance elements. Both cuts on this killer ep are large
with support coming from Martin Eyerer, Lutzenkirchen, David Duriez and
Innersphere.(FT073)HOUSE-10/01/07-GE

MUMBLING YEAH (AREAREMOTE) 12 - 106646
From the Remote Area imprint comes
this wicked slab of Carl Craig inspired soulful tribal house action.
"Mumbling Yeah" begins with a tripped out heavily effected inaudible
vocal part and bits of bouncy psychedelic synths and keeps this going until the
classic 909 beats drop giving the track a wicked retro Chicago / Planet E vibe.
Definitely feeling this one!(AREA001)HOUSE-10/01/07-BE

Azuli's Andy Cato drops his second
release on the Pack up And Dance imprint, a fiercely funky ep with 'Morton
Lighthouse' leading the charge. It's got a wicked acid inspired bassline that
filters just a bit, slick shuffling beats and layers of synths that play off of
the bassline. Next up 'Cosmic Force' draws influences from a variety of sources
and will appeal to house, progressive and even cosmic disco fans. Funk D'Void

Re:Connected series provides two more quality rump shaking gems that skirt the
line between deep jacking dirty house and the funkier side of the techno
spectrum. If you like the filthy and extra large noodlings of Trentemoller,

vibe is a big more hypnotic, but every bit as dirty and jacking and quite funky
too.(RE003)HOUSE-10/01/07-GE
DOMESTIC HOUSE
BABY OLIVER
PRIMETIME/HYPOCHONDRIA(ENVIRON) 12
More hot and twisted tracks for disco
jackers and neurotic nu-romantics courtesy of nviron’s BABY OLIVER.
"Feelings 2" sounds like an out-take from Prince on the day he forgot
to take his meds, with the result cut and sliced by Ron Hardy and served up by
the Hot Mix 5 on WMBX. Always unpredictable, Baby Oliver flips the usual male
lyrical cliche and tells his lover, "You just give me sex when I need a
love fix - and you know that's not the same." The B-side is a
slow-building, dark epic called "Shot Caller" that juxtaposes the
sounds of gunshots with the famous Linn Drum rim shot sound in a wry sonic pun.
Sprinked with vocal garnishes rendered from memories of Depeche Mode and Art of
Noise, "Shot Caller" is sure to drive your dancefloor wild. Excellent
stuff for those who like the twisted dirty disco of the Rong and Environ heads.

album, "Touched the Sky" has been blowing up all summer long, and
it's no surprise waestro Joe Claussell is in the mix on this new three-track
release adding a haunting, techy vibe to the proceedings with his two mixes.
Taking a page from the AME playbook with his own improved keys doing maximum
damage, Joe's "For IsolatorsOnly" mix is a journey deep into sweaty
dancefloor territory. Joe's "Dub Beats" provide a sweet percussion
tool for the DJs to get busy with, while Yass' "Dubstrumental" closes
things out on a moody, techy dubby tip with some deep stabs working over a
chunky dancefloor groove. An excellent release that'll be getting lots of play

SOUL SYMBOL (CURVVE) 12 - 106262
Gorgeous, trance-touched progressive
gem from this rising new producer. Three mixes here, none of which would sound
out of a place in a Paul Van Dyk set. The original mix is led bydriving strings
and a hypnotic, moody piano loop over energetic beats, while it's the Mohawk

be hip-electro-house, with some gritty basslines and cool cut-up rap vocals
combining for nasty peak hour stuff. Three mixes to choose from with DJ
