We are bringing together the creative might of our residents to bring the sound of Renate on a double release EP. Over the years Renate has grown from a impetuous party to a glorious club. The people who came together under her roof and played beats that made bodies pulsate with ecstasy have become benchmarks in the music industry of today. We want to share with you that talent. The first EP hosts tracks from Peak & Swift the colourful techno duo that inadvertently become the face of renate today. Sebastian Voigt, the dark techno Horse of the Renate tribe, adds a little mystic depth. Samanta Fox & Oliver Klostermann bring their high styled brand of cosmic music to the wax in a epic track and lastly Johannes Albert the wunderkid who broke free of the berlin's shackles and taken over the global stage with influences from none other the Wilde Renate.

David Vunk releases Trouble Tonight on Omnidisc. And its pretty save to say its one of the strongest mr Vunk delivered so far! 3 electro/techno acid cuts that will do their damage on the dance floor! Recommended!

In the making of her first Studio Barnhus record, veteran dj and world-travelling introvert Bella Boo divided time between bedroom studios in Ladbroke Grove and Hornstull, where she would hook up a dusty old Tanzbär, press record and sing straight into the laptop microphone over fuzzy r&b harmonics and snappy analog drums. The result is a collection of fascinating and fascinatingly groovy tracks, shuffling about with grace and vigour in the secret place where warm club music and introspective audio diaries meet to mingle.

2018 starts w/ Wolfram. Maxi Single PP026 features 'Automatic Dub". Powerful Italo Disco that will heat up any given Dancefloor in no time. The original is accompanied by two remixes, courtesy of Samo DJ and Alexi3d. More subtle yet equally effective acid versions including dreamy vocal and stop/pause scat madness.

AcidWorx kicks off their artist series with this lovely 3-tracker produced by Harold De Kinderen, and Stefan Robbers. The Dutch duo known to the world as Acid Junkies really need no introduction. They have been amongst top producers of ACID since 1992 when they first launched the acid classic track "Sector 9" on the Djax-Up-Beats label, followed by their successful album "Paranoid Experience" two years later.

Their newest release "Time Kills" on AcidWorx ranges from old skool acid bleeps to high tech electro with a scent of industrial and EBM-Body music. A super funky acid remix of the track "Drifters" by SERi from Japan is also included. Limited edition first press on transparent 12".

Opening cut 'Acido' setting the tone perfectly via murky broken rhythms and glitched out bass hits before the latter stages introduce a squelching 303 lead which tails out the rest of the record. 'Nylo' follows and draws on an earth shattering sub bass lead, sparse percussive shots and a subtly bubbling synth stabs.


Opening the flip is 'What' which takes a more robust approach rhythmically with a weighty kick drum, shuffling congas and choppy hats lying at the forefront while spiralling bass hits and vocal chops meander around them. Lastly the package is closed with 'Nasty', an intricately programmed energy fuelled workout featuring reversed bass swells, jazz tinged Rhodes melodies and crunchy distorted drums.

Vienna's finest on 12".
Vol. 1 with S-Max, Moxx, Digilog, Mstep and Nino Sebelic.

Compiled by soFa, the second instalment in his recent series ties together eighteen artists, each venturing down their own musical path, to produce an audio atlas that transverses not only styles but also cultures and continents.Disparate musicians come from far and wide have been brought together across two slabs of beautifully mastered vinyl and, somehow, someway, found a jittering, skittering and juddering balance.Tracks from Puma & Dolphin and Khidja conjure up images of thick jungle scenes as tribal rhythm patterns hypnotise and mesmerise alongside shamanic samples. The heady exotic aromas and tactile textures of the East are on display with Zatua traipsing through baked dunes and deserts before arriving to the shamanic organized chaos that is Bear Bones, Lay Low.Darker moods loom and lurk, skulking in the alleys of Konsistent or in t-woc's lurid tones. These duskier elements are countered by the brightness of Velvet C's future disco sounds or the laser synthwork of Rony & Suzy. The buzzing Chicago inspired sounds of Weird Dust, the dawning pulses of Twoonky and the triumphal charges of Föhn blur the lines between mystical places and the cruel reality of the modern world.A double vinyl ticket to eleven engaging and evocative destinations.A trip into the fantastical. An Oyster from Elsewhere...

Continuing on from Vol 1's theme of established artists working in disguise, 'Music First Vol 2' delivers another sonic assault with this absolute rollercoaster ride of a record. The mysterious Scorpio T opens the EP with 'Neptune Rising', a squelching acid-bass boomer that can simultaneously spiritually elevate and physically devastate any dancefloor. Rounding off Side A it's followed by Scandalous Arthur's 'Acid In My Mind', a lo-fi tape-hissed jacking beast of a banger that sounds like it's genuinely been brewing in a vat of highly toxic acid for at least 25 years and guaranteed to melt your mind. On the flipside comes JaX DaX returning from Vol 1 with the low-frequency moody slo-mo electro workout 'Fucking Computer' that oozes bad attitude and booty-shaking basslines in equal abundance. Bringing the trip to a close is Kyrenic Azalee with the self-titled 'Kyrenic Azalee', an x-rated new beat tour-de-force of epic proportions that will fry minds and bodies with its relentless energy. Limited edition so don't sleep on it, not that it would let you.

Here To Hell is an Australian label project conceived by The Presets' Kim Moyes, and Revolver resident DJ Mike Callander. This, the second release on the label is their first original work as Zero Percent.

After dragging Aussie rockers The Drones onto the dancefloor with HTH001, the Here To Hell label bosses show us a little more of what they're all about. Volumes is raw and tough, focused on groove and aimed squarely at late night dancefloor hypnosis.

Named after one of their early live performances, this first Zero Percent outing demonstrates the direct link between their live shows and studio sessions. With Kim and Mike living in different Aussie cities, their production sessions are few and far between. Often these long weekend jams coincide with the hangovers and sleep deprivation that come with gigging in each other's cities.

From all of these sessions across the last few years, Volumes stood out as their first work that satisfied the NO BRAINER test... that is, if you don't need to explain it, then the job is done and the dancefloor can fully consume it.

On the flip Kim and Mike invited The Mole to deliver his own version of dancefloor hypnosis, and they were most satisfied that he also delivered a fantastic NO BRAINER that now appears in all of their DJ sets.

For Alan Oldham, artistic expression is a way of life, taking multiple forms and medi-ums throughout his lifetime. Before he was ever known as DJ T-1000, he was a published car-toon artist and radio DJ in Detroit writing press releases for Underground Resistance to get by. One day, Underground Resistance was in need of a last minute DJ for their tour in Aus-tralia, and a door flew open for Alan Oldham. With passport in hand he departed on his jour-ney as a DJ, which little did he know would eventually span continents. Influenced by every-thing around him, his work has dynamically changed and evolved along with his life. Currently as an international DJ living in Berlin, his latest creation is the ACIDSPACE EP, released by Elypsia Records under the DetroitRocketScience name. The traveler himself takes us on an intergalactic adventure, beginning with ACIDSPACE (8:48). With a steady beat and a unique blend of serene space sounds, this jam excites the imagination for the journey to come. It is followed by ROCKET TO BERLIN (7:20), a subtle and intricate mix that entices one to enter the unknown. VESTA SYSTEM (6:22) finishes the EP off on a note that leaves lis-teners grooving and enjoying the ride. Creativity and sweet sounds are what it's all about for Alan Oldham. With his recent musical shift to mellower, sci-fi inspired jams, he continues to let listeners see for themselves.

Hot on the heels of his 'Relief Sevensixty' EP we are pleased to announce the latest instalment of Jaime Read cuts from the vaults. The 'Target This MF' EP is another collection of golden-era jams from Read's envious archive. Steeped in history, these infamous tracks are now seeing the light of day again. You only have to have a quick online search to read the fascinating story of the journey of this music and then maybe this EP title will make sense! Kicking off with the serious Detroit leanings of 'P.E.G.' you get a real taste of what's in store, frantic claps and detuned synth swells combine to create a pacey and essential slice of futurist Techno. A2 'Sux' is another epic piece of space electronics, tough drum machine programming and swirling sounds give the track an epic feel, mildly disorientating in the best possible way it's hard to believe this music originates from the South coast of the UK! B1 'Rein (Pt.1)' is mining a deeper, House infused sound. A sublime groove that tips it's hat to the masters with a serious bassline that just won't stop. Funky machine music of the highest order. The EP finishes with the absolute killer 'Peeano', a jam that flips Jazz on it's head in zero gravity, incessant piano lines drive us deep into the speaker stacks and it feels great. The whole EP is a total trip. Essential music from an unheralded UK legend.
The 'Target This MF' EP has been legitimately released with the full involvement of Jaime Read for 2017 and remastered by London's Curve Pusher from the original sources especially for Mint Condition. 100% legit, licensed and released. Dug, remastered, repackaged and brought to you by the caring folks at Mint Condition!

there are four deep analog techno tunes.

TRORA Vol. 1 is Panda Lassow's interpretation of recent global tropical bass movements like Gqom, Kuduro and more. She likes bass music from around the world. Thus, we can also hear influences from Bounce and Booty elements. As born and grown up in Eastern Germany, in TRORA Vol. 1 she combines these with her musical roots she found in techno and rave music.

This time we bring you two irresistible cuts of banging, acid driven
techno by Yokushe and Dave Tarrida, an atmospheric acid journey from Wata Igarashi, and a funky acid tech tool by Shin Nishimura.

REPRESSED !!
GLENN UNDERGROUND takes us on a TB303 journey with lush ambient chords and spacey rhythms on "BATTERY ACID" on the A-side plus a raw dub edit of it on the flipside. "MR HEARD" finishes out the B-side and is yet another tribute to the Master Of House LARRY HEARD aka MR FINGERS and GU really taps into LARRY's musical solar system!

Two new tracks launching the new Irvine Welsh book "Dead Man's Trousers" - the final installment in the Trainspotting series. The A1 is a hypnotic acid work-out with a trademark sound produced straight out of Paranoid London's studio complete with Renton's musings over the top. On the flip you're sucked into a dark tunnel of Renton's mind, rocked by a chance encounter with Begbie. Haunting pads intensify the monologue before a pulsating heartbeat of a kick comes through underneath.

Re-issue with new sleeve, photographed by photo editor of Thrasher magazine Bryce Kanights when Tommy was 13 years old

97 debut album from renowned skateboard rider Guerrero takes off on a fusionistic ride of acid jazz, trip hop, rock and downtempo groove.

This is one of the lesser known titles by Tommy Guerrero, instead of the more indie Rock or Post/Experimental-Rock sounds that made "A little Bit of Something" or "Hoy Yen Ass'n", such accomplished albums have largely been abandoned, in favour of something a little more subtle, studied and more akin to his Puerto Rican roots.
This is, by and large, a vastly stripped back affair compared to his later albums, with the acoustic guitar featuring prominently in virtually all the songs, with subtlety, and refinement, this feels like a improvised session between him and his group of musician friends that has been beautifully recorded and keep for prosperity. This is (apart from a couple of vocal tracks) a most instrumental album, with a super-laid back feel, that mixes simply devised melodies with hints of Blues/Funk, yet the prominence of a strong Cuban/Latin artistic approach run strong throughout the album.

Highly recommended.

Collated by legendary Acid House don K' Alexi bringing together 5 of his Chi Town cohorts for a 6 track Jack fest of the highest order.

This is the Birth of B00M JACK's New Baby my dear friends 'n freaks...

being asked to describe the 22 year old german musician Kolja Gerstenberg - one possible answer could sound like that he might be the lost twin brother of Jamie Jones (but it's just one among any other suitable answers) the youngster and music student (he's studying drums at university) Kolja is a total opposite of the typical modern-music-scene-kind-of-guy as he sticks to his assion, which is House Music in it's classic disguise like 20 years ago. Kolja is not interested in following hypes or trends. what he loves are raw & dirty US House like trax or disco house flavoured tunes with loads of jazzy smell and glitter all over. Kolja is and will stay real & authentic by keeping this behaviour. He is not aiming at superfi just for the higher potential of success or money or fame . . .

Being deeply connected to the funk/soul & disco era back in the 60' / 70's or early 80's, the era of studio 54 & the times of the discoball & hedonistic nights without limits is an evidence that prooves the existance of some kind of legacy within Kolja's family. It's like if his extraordinary talent & feeling for grooves and rhythm was planted in his DNA Code. Why.. Just because already Kolja's father has been one of the very early techno music pioneers being known & popular in the underground music
scene as he was part of the technoproject called AFROTRANCE" with vinyl releases more than 20 years ago on worldwide respected labels like R&S Records or Sven Väths Harthouse back in 1993/94 (!) with these facts in mind it is no wonder or miracle that B00M JACK RECORDS is proudly presenting the result of Kolja's DNA Code as he - more than 2 decades after daddy's artist days - steps into his fathers footprints by delivering the LIBIDO EXPRESS EP for the long awaited launch of BOOM JACK RECORDS. There is no doubt about ... his dad will be proud as fuck!

On the A Side one gets caught by the records title track LiBiDO EXPRESS - which actually is a co-production by Kolja Gerstenberg & his partner-in-crime, Yannic Krauß. As a duo they are working under their moniker F.K.K. This tune is not wasting any time as it immediately takes you by the hand, dragging you straight to the dancfloor, leaving no chance to escape. It's simple but perfectly used ingrediences like the strength of a pumpin kickdrum, the raw and mean bassline plus its beanfield'esque kinda vocal samples doing a propper job untill a well hidden Monster of a 303 acid sequence suddenly emerges out of nowhere to drill holes even through thick concrete walls! This is a truly stunning tune guys that will make loads of people go nuts on the floors around the world. the flip side delivers two extraordinary convincing Space-Disco-House tunes that are playing in a totally different league. But this league is Kolja Gerstenberg deepest love when it comes to music. listening to "Diggin Digger" & "Let it Whip" automatically reminds of house music's hall of fame members like Kevin Saunderson, Derrick May or Juan Atkins. Quite weird though - because they wrote history with their work, founding a never heard before kind of sound back in the day, when baby Kolja G. wasn't even planned by his parents. These US House Pioneers who invented the sound we all are addicted to could almost be Kolja's grand fathers today but this young talents tracks, born in 2014/2015 somehow sound deeply related to the 30 year old hymns from Chicago or Detroit... Amazing - as we think!

After putting 1990s record label Emote to bed and a 17 year break from making music Mark Churcher has now knocked out 2 rasping acid house discs within a year on his new Chicago Bee record label. The first very well received EP 'Who's this guy ' is followed up with the same A- Eno-Acid moniker.
This 4 track EP is deeper, darker and even more drugged out. The tracks are slower and longer allowing the listener to be sonically submerged in the reverb swelled acid lines.

Super Rhythm Trax welcomes back Cardopusher for his second appearance on the label. This EP showcases a range of styles including his trademark jackin' acid trax but also widens the net to include the New York Freestyle of 'Never Fade Away' and the Nu Groove-esque 'Mental Jobs' .

'Mystic' Bill Torres is a producer that we feel deserves more props! A Miami born, Chicago dwelling artist who's output has gained total cult status among lovers of that deep, narcotic, late-night groove that he has made his own.

Bill's sound is everything that House music should be, it encapsulates the smoky after hours and throbbing dance-floors of darkened spaces where folks really get down. Fitting then, that a lot of Bill's music is seriously sought after by DJ's and dancers from all over, most of his records are at the top of the wants lists of House fanatics who truly understand the music. 'Classics from the vault vol.1' is one such record - Originally released on Cajmere's mighty Relief Records back in 1997 it wears it influences on it's sleeve proudly, track titles such as 'Late night at the music box' obviously reference where Bill's sound is coming from, but his style is completely original and crystallizes the energy and expression of Ron Hardy and Chicago's heady dance music history into something fresh and individual. In short, Mystic Bill is the shit and if you're not hip to his music you certainly will be once you get into this EP. 4 tracks of top shelf, late night weaponry right here - reissued with love and still sounding as fresh as it did on it's original release in '97! Take a 'Mind ride'!

'Classics from the vault vol.1' has been legitimately re-released with the full involvement of Mystic Bill Torres for 2017 and remastered by London's Curve Pusher from the original DAT especially for Mint Condition. 100% legit, licensed and released. Dug, remastered, repackaged and brought to you by the caring folks at your new favourite reissue label - Mint Condition!

GU (GLENN UNDERGROUND) pays tribute to ARMANDO GALLOP & EARL SMITH JR better known as ARMANDO & SPANKY on ACID SAGA 1. The legacy of GU'S 303 can be felt in these latest tracks with bubbling acid lines seeping throughout both SPANK N' GALLOP & PEACEFUL RAGE(ACID REVENGE).
