MD III - The pressure cooker [Underground, 1993]After Theevanhood posted a youtube clip of this track, it stuck to my head. A friend (yo Hansa!) finally dug it up and it’s mezmerising. What an old(ish) hit.
Edit: This friday I shall visit The Eye again. It was a while ago, since I’ve sort of boycotted them [...]
Yapacc - Second Life -[Wir]
Second life has everything, it starts of with a thick and fast groove accompanied by the deep and tripped out vocal patter telling you “Somethings coming up” and “Its not like i thought it would be” Are these references to the track in question? They just well could be as you [...]
Jerome Sydenham & Tiger Stripes - Elevation (Radio Slave’s One More Kiss Remix) [Ibadan, 2008] (d/l, d/l)Three big producers collide in a sweaty techno excursion. Sydenham and Tiger Stripes’ Elevation anthem is pierced by the man who never sleep, Radio Slave’s functionalists ideas. The result is a floor whooping, big, sick and most definetly dancable [...]
Kabale Und Liebe & Daniel Sanchez - Mumbling Yeah Remixes -[Remote Area]
Unless you were living under a rock last summer or don’t go out much i reckon its safe to say, at some point you will of heard Dj’s spinning a track with a strange man (Daniel Sanchez) mumbling on top of a deep minimal [...]
Model 500 - The flow [R&S, 1995]It’s that time again, people. Time to dust off some real classic tracks and reminiscing. Not one of Model 500’s earliest, but still a proper legendary track which first appeared on the Deep Space LP. Juan Atkins for president!
I did, indeed attend Aril Brikha playing at Jeriko in Malmö [...]
Kalim Shabazz - Peak Bomb - [Thugfucker Recordings]
Looking for some modern house music with a twist? sick and tired of all the same sounds? Just Searching for that simple house groove but keep getting bombarded with dull minimal?
Well look no further because we have the answer here in the shape of Peak Bomb.
Yes Lady’s and [...]
Gavin Herlihy -’Praia Brava’ - [True To Form]
You may recognise Gavin Herlihy name from his stint at Mixmag as one of the editors his writing was very good i especially liked his three page spread on DC10 last year.
He’s decided to give the journalism a rest and done what alot of journalists are doing by [...]
Off to Malmö for the weekend. Aril Brikha plays there on saturday, and I will most likely go. So yeah, finally a decent booking. Have a good one folks.
Kirk Degiorgio - I do not exist (original mix) [B12, 2007] (d/l)Wonky, fast paced, techno. There is also a B12 remix on this record, which turns the [...]
Surgeon - This is for you shits! [Warp, 2007] (buy)Great mixtape from Surgeon. This is a wonderful one hour showcase of techno’s more experimental sides. Dabbling with the very fringes of the dance sound, as one would suspect when it’s released on Warp. Brutal waves of murderous textures blended with occassional glimpses of artful melodies. [...]
Emil Lassaria -”Untitled EP” -[White]
More of the Cadenza influenced sound this is more for the dancefloor though and its really good i haven’t been able to stop playing it since i got it.
Just wait till the violins come in, it has a really good breakdown which will make your set stand out from the rest.
Drop [...]
Sarah Goldfarb - From New York To Las Vegas -[Roman,Photo]
This Ep represents a unreasonable and animated flight that Sarah Goldfarb took From N.Y and Las Vegas in August 2007.
24 Dollars was produced just before the flight from New York.
Its real hypnotic & tribal a proper crowd burner the floor is going to love it, causing [...]
Elec Pt. 1 - By the stars [Bunker, 2007] (d/l)Bunker Records, aah, what a sure sign of quality for black as death electro. Released in December this five track EP, The Inner Circle, is filled to the brim with dangerously corroding acid elektro songs. Never leaving the unpleasant sphere of vibes, fine dystopian works crafted [...]
Max Cavalerra* - Der Weg Zur Sonne -[Karmarouge]
Time to go on a journey into the deep.
Weg Zur Sonne is like taking a walk around a strange planet there’s echoes of your footsteps everywhere you go, the freezing solar wind whistles past your ears & there’s snow falling all around you.
Just when you think [...]
Alright. After about one million recordings of me VJing with VDMX to this track, I’m dead tired of it. The ridiculous amount of takes needed was because I was clueless as to what codec and settings to record with. I ended up just importing one of the earliest takes into iMovie and re-encoding it. Thus [...]
Nico Purman* - Tuesday -[Vakant]
This could be used a real dance floor weapon if used at the right time.
It reminds me of Fed On Youth not as killer as that but its not far off.
Nico uses distant sub bass to cause a catastrophic wave of sound, that will destroy clubs at 5am.
Mind [...]
