Next release on Claap coming up and it is another GummiHz affair! After his last release on Claap
ìHead Rushî last summer was snatched by the guys at Defected for the Defected In the House series,
Alex is back with his next record aptly titled "Rejuvenation EP". This two tracker carries a pair of
absolutely necessary house grooves. Rejuvenation features an elegant arpeggio which builds up to an
intense crescendo bound to hypnotize dancefloors the world over. Intense but very elegantly produced
it carries Alex's signature sound and explores a similar musical territory to Secret Voyage (CLAAP004)
which has received overwhelming responses since its release. The motif on the flip side remains
similar but with a more mature soundscape, showcasing Alex's endless sonic diversity. Add a bonus
beatzz extract to round up an essential EP for the open air season and not only.

After Reclusion the Track DEAD LINES marches with his house beat, straight into the sunset!
The atmosphere is friendly, the sun rises!

Der erste Schritt zum Produzieren ist nicht leicht. Es ist fast so wie in einer Blaskapelle ohne Kapellmeister. Alles scheint durcheinander und unstrukturiert, doch zum Glück stellt Bebetta mit ihrem Debüt - Track "Herr Kapellmeister" die Klarheit und Ordnung wieder her! An ihrer Seite musizieren die Labelkollegen Beatamines und Glanz & Ledwa sowie Serwo Schamutzki & Kosta Aldente. Genießt diese tolle Komposition!

Click Box are the Brazilian techno duo who have a long history of association with Minus. As well as playing on plenty of line-ups with fellow label acts, they have also released a number of well-received EPs on the imprint and now return with four new tracks, two of which will be pressed to vinyl, and two additional digital bonuses. 'Body Fall' is the opener, and is a dark, brooding track with exacting sound design principles right from the off. A firm beat underpins rattling hi hats and plenty of little FX flesh out the groove, including some fizzing synth stabs and dramatic, echoing claps. It's the sort of track that bubbles along with out ever boiling over, keeping you locked until right at the end. The flip is just as stern in its mood, with rattling percussion dissolving into a buried deep in the mix and heavily reverberating bassline. Abstract sound effects drop in and out as the whole thing rumbles along like pure, dark techno should. The digital bonuses are just as essential: 'Doubt' has knackered sounding analogue lines tearing through the mix as housey hits and icy cymbals cut through the thick atmospheres, whilst 'Brutal Shore' is a patchwork of drips and clicks, ticks and hits that all come together like a prime after hours joint ready to unhinge your mind. The Click Box sound is almost mathematical in its precision, meaning their first return to Minus for a while adds up to something really quite special one again.

Das dritte und letzte Format:B Vinyl-Remix-Paket ist angerichtet!
Gegenstand ist immer noch ihr das aktuelles Album Restless,
dem sich erneut namhafte K¸nstler aus dem internationalen
Umfeld der beiden angenommen haben. Allen voran diesmal der
Italiener Uto Karem auf Position A1. Er hat sich den Titel "Piano
Man" vorgeknüpft und haut ähnlich versiert in die Tasten, wie man
das von Format:B gewohnt ist.

Volume Two turns deeper. Listen. Dig further. Acidic meltowns and bass thrusting. Let the music speak for the music. Artist unknown.

Wie ein Swimming Pool voll wohlig kribbelnder Nebelpaste präsentiert sich der neue Track von youANDme, der gleich einiges an Wunschträumen triggert. Der Pool, der liegt natürlich hoch oben über der Stadt, unten die Lichter, alles leicht verschoben und ungewöhnlich langsam, dafür endlos. Es sind genau diese Momente, die das Leben wieder für uns entscheiden. Dass ein richtiger Dub weich sein muss, das wissen wir, dieser hier jedoch ist so zart und jungfräulich kuschelnd, dass man aus dem Staunen nicht mehr herauskommt. Eine Momentaufnahme der Perfektion, des gepolsterten Hamsterrads, in dem sich die Profis auslaufen und regenerieren können. Luke Hess schwingt im seinem Remix am Swing-Kippschalter taktgenau mit, verzahnt den Rückstoß mit genau richtig ziependen HiHats und eröffnet eine neue Runde im Kampf um die größte Sprungfeder auf dem Floor.

Max Coopers returns to Traum with his brand new "Empirisch" EP. He opens his EP with "Echoes Reality" and we realise right away this might be another cornerstone of Max Cooper's musical carrier.

For its fourth release INSIST MUSIC label owners Patrick Kunkel and Dirk Redmer have decided to take an old colleague on board. Sascha Barth, who has published among other labels on Terminal M (the label of Monika Kruse), Harthouse ,Circle Music and various other compilations, presents himself with his familiar driving and intelligent tech-house on INSIST 004.

Whether it's behind the turntables or in the Studio, Oliver likes versatile, techno infused tracks with room for
deep elements as well as pure dancefloor work. His style is warm and subtle but at the same time very
energetic. With releases on "Ostwind Records", "Parquet Recordings" and "Musik gewinnt Freunde" Hamburg-
based Oliver Schories finally found his home in 2010 after years of experimenting with different electronic music
styles like Drum n' Bass, 2Step and New Rave Electronica. Having been influenced by those various styles within
the last decade of DJ'ing, 1982 born Oliver has today a huge musical background which he uses for his
productions as well as for his DJ-Sets: They are always unique

Eminor 29 again comes up with massive minimalist techno. A1: Coeter One & Dubit Granatapfel - Bring together a German and an Italian sound designer and you get an experimental mixture of drums and carefully quantized grooves. The inimalistic framework of Granatapfel is teamed up by vocoded vocals and an unique break which leads majesically from confusion to musical order. A2: Scalameriya Ridley - by the Serbian techno-guru Scalameriya has a fast and pushy bass-dominated rhythm, an almost factory-like precision and a compulsive eye on the floor. B: Granatapfel - Re:Axis´s Going Down Remix - The remix of Portuguese duo Re:Axis is less stripped-down than the original. With its thrilling melody, Re:Axis manage to give the track an epic touch.

The mysterious artist Abdulla found his home base on Prologue and we are very happy about this. Abdulla´s hypnotic touch fits exactly into the philosophy we live and love. His debut vinyl release Weldiya reflects the compelling sound therapy for electronic music enthusiast prescribed by Prologue. Starting smooth to adjust, Abdulla enters the realm of acid driven entrancing beats and closes with overwhelming sound carpets.

It seems these days you'll find Anthea (UK born and raised) more at home in the electronic capital Berlin. Once the girl to buy your records from at Phonica Records in London, now you'll find her doing A&R for the Berlin based label Brouqade and releasing on labels currently such as; Desolat, All Inn, One Records , Air London, and her now home label; Brouqade.

With some great releases under her belt on; Freak n Chic, Tuning Spork, Cecille Numbers, Phonica and Mojuba Records, you know that Anthea is a woman that knows her craft - with an emphasis on creating, not imitating. Those who have seen her at Fabric, Panorama, Ghoa Beach, Watergate, Harry Klein, Circoloco UK, Space Ibiza, and Underground Ibiza to name a few, know that she demonstrates sophistication and powerful energy behind the decks.

Inspired by artists such as Mr G, Baby Ford, Ricardo Villalobos, Derrick Carter & Rhythm & Sound she has created a sound somewhere lodged between house and techno; that is deep, warm and bassline fueled. And if the original was note dope enough this package comes complete with two heavy weight remixes from two in demand high flyers: Dan Ghenacia & Subb-an.

here we go with the roots of dark techno, michael schwarz now shows up
with the basic track of fauna, that was remixed on pt. 1 of this package by
justin berkovi. fauna is nothing less than a masterpiece, so it draw the attention
of alex bau immediately and he hook up with man behind the secret moniker floom.
the guys delivered what you would expect anyway whenever you read their names:
total dedication to techno in its basic sense. big support from all the techno-guys around!

support by: adam beyer, technasia, the advent, dave clarke, dubfire, chris liebing, secret cinema, justin berkovi, joel mull, xpansul...

We proudly present Sasch BBC & Caspar two Artists from the Rhein-Main-Area of Germany with their first release on mono recordings. Bringing a disco funktastic 4 tracker. Including a track Sasch BBC did together with his homies Bunte Bummler 'Never Enough Love' definitely got what it takes to become a summer anthem.

Back in the mid-1980s, before the world discovered its raving feet, Ibiza and its DJs like Alfredo pushed a musical belief that eventually became known as Balearic Beat. The only rule of Balearic Beat, was that there was no rules: so long as it moved you anything went in a DJ set. For an artist like Chile's Luciano, who has been a DJ on the island for many years, that spirit of openness comes as second nature. Luciano first landed in Ibiza to visit his friend Ricardo Villalobos. So blown away was he, by the island's unique culture and parties, that he decided to stay. Before long, he was DJing at small underground events. His first official gig was with Cocoon. Then he landed a regular slot at Ibiza's notorious afterhours club, Circoloco at DC10, where he remained a resident DJ for six years. During his time at DC10, Luciano became famous for his magical, mind-altering sets that combined warm-blooded Latino rhythms, futuristic techno and rough house grooves. In 2009, when DC10 was shut for the summer, Luciano was determined to bring back the underground spirit to Ibiza by hosting a free outdoor party at a little known beach bar called Ushuaia. From a one-off event, it exploded into the biggest party of the summer, and such was the success of Luciano's parties, that they helped lead to the launch of Ibiza's glitzy new Ushuaia hotel-club complex in 20
