After a first year of spellbinding releases, Sol Asylum returns in 2015 with a fresh various artist's compilation featuring three finely crafted tracks from the Sol Asylum crew to kick-start the labels second year. Bringing together a family of artists who have been there since the very beginning.

Starting off with the OdD boys Danny and Damian, we go all the way back to the first release with a brand new remix of Broken Spell. Whisking us away to a parallel universe of this odyssey, this remix is masterly conjured into a percussive exploration of the planet of odd.

Following the OdD ones, Julie Marghilano unleashes another side of Sol Asylum with Dragon Drops. She unveils her known atmospheric soundscapes but with a heavily detailed rhythmic twist, made by experimenting with her field recordings to create a more stripped down sound that shows her range and versatility.

Last but certainly not least, Miss Jools Calima brings the EP to a triumphant closure like a mystical fog. The elements of the track melt into drowning synths with crackling percussion and the elegantly designed grooves that levitate us steadily through the hypnotic melodies. The percussive strength of each track, while still being diverse links this collaboration of like-minded family members together as a cohesive potion.

early support from Raresh, Fred P, Julietta, Dana Ruh

Another 150-holy-pieces-limited edition on vinyl is coming out on Questo! Music. With this No.2 on that label, the series of high quality minimalistic and expressive deeptech music continues. The original is a Swiss-German co-production by labelhead Francesco Ballato and the new Parquet Rec. member Mandibula. The symbiosis of these two guys is like putting unfiltered apple juice with vodka, which results in tasting like exquisite strudel cake. The caky music sounds like lusty melodic elements on a suspenseful beaty framework, or how they call it: like 'Lechery'.

Side B is literally packed with Miro Pajic! The Remix from the Berlin-based lazerslut, who also releases on Magda's Items & Things, uses almost full capacity of the vinyl record length and strikes with a 12-minutes journey of dirty grooves. On a percussive Pajic-like setting, he finds his unique way of 'Lechery' with an apparently neverending buildup which turns into some epic moments. Simply a splendid piece of smart electronic music, that shouldn't be missed!

This new Relax2000 is kind of a collaboration between two snorky labels! 9 Vol Recordings Kork & Mule brought highly charged electric beats for this Relax2017. On the 12" you´ll find "Trigger me" and "Sorry Baby". We´re not sure, for what they have to be sorry, but this tracks will trigger you to move your feet! A third one will be available again as digital bonus track! Get loaded !!

Limited Red Vinyl Pressing!

The Montreal based techno producer Pheek releases the new 2x12inch disk on Climat label. Gazing Through the Midnight Mist is Climat's 3rd vinyl.

Pheek has already released noticeable tracks on labels such as Minus, Contexterrior or Telegraph. This time it is Climat's turn to go far with Pheek's productions of uplifting vibes. Pheek's music is underlined by complex effects and deep sounds that create a strange and an unconventional impression in the listener's memory. Always passionate about expected versus unexpected, synchronized versus unsynchronized, weirdrythmics, depth noises Pheek is killing it with Gazing Through the Midnight Mist.

The disc's artwork was made by Max Binski.

Mauro Basso's original is cloat in the minimal techno style you can rest assured to be lead by into the deep love god gave you to experience. His fine keys always make you tremble like the first time you felt the butterflies in your stomach: dancefloor filler.
Marco Fender's remix comes with a bass winding straight into your mind and sets your feet loose.

Marcus Sur takes the original and gives it an 80s flip with his ascending keys ready for the discotheque. He totally converts Mauro Basso's tune and senses the atmosphere to create a ready for a classic piece which will make you spin and play it on your player on rotation.

The bonus track "The Way" is an easy listening example, which is one of the tunes you want to hear during the afterhour and makes you which it never stops; surely it can be played in the club also.

This release eventually marks another milestone for AUDITIVE with the first vinyl after being successfully on the market for two years. Hands up!!

Swap White Ltd 02, Included a Iori remix (Prologue, Phonica White). Cinema Sonore Vol. 1 will be the actor of your own analog film.
A sound film is a motion picture with synchronized sounding elements, technologically coupled to image, as opposed to a silent film. The first known public exhibition of projected sound films took place in Paris in 1900. The idea of combining motion pictures with recorded sound is nearly as old as the concept of cinema itself. In the early 1930s it became a global phenomenon.

In Febuary 2014 Martin Books comes up with his new album "LIVE". It's gonna be released as a double vinyl and digital download as well via - Style Rockets'. This record certainly lives up to the label's name.

In his usual nonchalant style, you can expect deep driving arrangements. Through the precisely applied sub-basses and the unobtrusive synth pads, a first class sound-performance is guaranteed.

"LIVE" doesn't shine only through suitable club rave sounds like "7 Days".
We can be sure that playful tracks such as "Panic Jack" or "Wake Up" will accompany us to the open-air season. Co-responsible for this are the skillfully interwoven vocals, which serve both as grounding melodic elements and staccato-rhythmic sample-whips.

The album features many label mates and companions from Berlin, such as Kotelett & Zadak, René Bourgeois, Drauf & Dran and Pierre Deutschmann. Even a Mexican joins the league of the extraordinary dance floor matadors. Alex Young, known for his hit - Sol", also contributes a remix. In return, Martin is going to put his version of "Sol" onto the vinyl edition to be released in 2014.

Without a doubt, - LIVE' a well assembled album is at hand. It'll make sure there is always enough peak time gas. A logical consequence of his previous stuff and Martins work on the Minus Compilation 2013.

PINS AND NEEDLES are proud to present to you FABIO VICTOR & AUDIOTHEQUE - HEGEMONIE incl. remixes from P. JONES and OSHANA. After FABIO VICTOR's successful first release on Pins and Needles last year, the Romanian DJ and Producer returns to the label with two amazing original mixes in collaboration with AUDIOTHEQUE. HEGEMONIE and SUSPANS are productions mastered for the dancefloor with cleverly arranged percussion patterns, though beats and big synth layers. Dutch talent P. JONES and New York based OSHANA both added their own musical touches to their remixes which perfectly round up this wonderful release. It is all about grooves, chunky beats and the right amount of melodic and quirky sounds.



'Fabio Victor & Audiotheque - Hegemonie' - All music Produced, Engineered and Mixed by Fabio Victor & Audiotheque. Remixed by P. Jones and Oshana. All tracks mastered at Harcourt Studios.

Krasnodar, located around 1500km due south of Moscow is where Aleksander Tochilkin (Kott) calls home. From this city, deep in the south of the giant Russian state, Kott crafts and creates even deeper cuts of house music.

This, his debut EP for Italian imprint Dabit, is made up of three original tracks and remix by Dave Scott. "Physics" is firmly rooted in the classic house ethos, chopped vocals and glorious strings build an impressive backdrop for the swinging hats and off beat snares. It's hard to listen to this track without thinking about the sun.

Next up is Dave Scott's remix of 'Physics'. From the outset the remix is a much more expansive take on the original. Retaining the strings from the Kott version and bringing them right up in the mix. Scott manages to continually build the track, releasing the tension just at the right moments.

The first track on the flip side entitled 'Buddha My Father' lulls you in over a long intro. Throbbing synths are juxtaposed with the sound of birds singing their dawn chorus culminating with a drop that should please techno and house heads equally.

Last up on the EP, we have "Flotyl". A track which indulges Kott's more experimental tendencies and drops the heart rate of the EP a notch or two. Dubbed synth stabs roll across the track whilst glassy keys highlight the peaks and troughs, all the while the shuffling percussion and drums keep the groove locked and smooth.

Tolles Debüt von Thomas Lizarra auf dem Hamburger Label Ton liebt Klang.
