Second output from Madrid electro based label managed by excellent and friendly Boris Divider (Psi49net, Dona-Li). Heavyweight UK producer Kurt Baggaley aka Scape One signs there a heading 12'' quite different from his previous ones, marked by an impressive synthetic funk especially on "Galaxy Of Funk" and "Urban Contemporary", two ultra offensive... read more

Tongut's boss André Pollmann aka Apoll appears one more time on this other Swiss structure with three groovy, grating minimal house tracks using also some micro-samples. Special mention to "Child" (B2) which is more pumpin' and bringing a sweet & deep atmosphere. Really nice.

Under this strange alias is hidden Steve Barnes, best known under the name Process for his releases on Traum and Trapez labels. Just one side for this EP, a very simple groovy and sexy warm track. Just imagine a rumbling bass, some really eighties synth chords and vocals samples with abusive delay powered by a straight and powerful beat, you can get a kind of nice digital disco. Really good!

Danger, hot pieces inside! Coming directly from Birmingham in England, the fifth release of Kracktronik, the label managed by Sir Real and Dj Sherwen, should be one of end of year electro breaks sensations. Conceived by Bass Kittens that is to say Jon Drukman, an American artist also heard on Astralwerks, World Electric or Pretension, "MFS_Root"... read more

The original version is a typical euro trance Ibiza-type track, I won't waste my time describing it. What interests us is Chris Liebing's remix which blends the original sounds with his famous rhythm arrangement and usually long breakdown. Unexpectedly, this combination sounds excellent! Definitely worth having.

After her excellent EPs on Areal Records, one of the most innovative label from Cologne, Ada presents us her first album: "Blondie". Through 10 nice tracks (only 8 for the vinyl version), Michaela Dippel take us a little more into her universe. With a good balance of vocal exercises and one the most sensible electronic programmation, this album is... read more

After a remix done on the first EP of this Neapolitan label, the French producer is back on Defrag with two longplayers which can be ranked between deep techno and minimal house. His friend Bern is also contributing to this release with a remix which follows perfectly the two previous tracks, in a more progressive way and with so much delicacy and class. An excellent EP. Check mp3 samples on Defrag website!

After having released some tracks as solo project on the Geneva based label Plak Records, Chaton & Hopen started to work together and to play as live-act some months ago. "An Area", the A-side longplayer is a good example to see how they are complementary: we find techno & minimal influences by Chaton and sound experimentations by Hopen. The... read more

Before his forthcoming album "The Television Saga" (M/A 37), Dash Dude presents "The Radio Diet" in its original version but also in three other versions brought by Cruz, Jeff Samuel and Hakan Lidbo. The four tracks are evolving in the same cric crac funky minimal house style. Cool.

After five years of interruption and a vibrating last release produced by Da Halz ("Konform EP" on Sci 18), the structure of Leipzig announces today its resurrection and takes this opportunity to use invaluable services of a heavyweight electro producer named Kurt Baggaley.
