Dutch record label Crème Records releases Bangkok Impact's "classic" electro anthem "Junge Dame" in five beautifully crafted remixes. An edit from Bangkok Impact himself, accompanied by remixes from Legowelt, Kassen, Orgue Electonique and James White makes this 12" a must have… Legowelt's 9 minutes long remix with his familiar "spooky" melodies is the one that certainly captures the listener and the one that stands out in this 12"...

Brilliant underground techno, house and electro oriented label Affected Music based in London welcomes for its ninth reference newcomer D. Foster for a two faces EP. If the A side offers two class 4/4 pieces, groovy "Stone Wobble" and linear "Your Sickness", what to say about the B-side? "Forbidden Planet" introduces a deep and sensual electro of the best effect. As for dark "Human Reaction", last track taken from the 12'', this little minimal jewel exploits a gloomy, melancholic and heading vocoder that will turn you pale. Exceptional!

Superpitcher, one of the most famous DJ and producer of the Kompakt team from Cologne, comes back this time with his first album "Here come love". Softer than his previous releases, Superpitche gives us an excellent LP, really intimist, still scared by melancholy and pop influences. Electro basslines elegantly mixed with harmonious chords and... read more

If you missed the original release (Satamile 13), please note that the current remixes have nearly nothing to deal with Irish Alan O'Boyle (Sabrettes, Trama) previous track. Reworked by Exzakt (Monotone, Psi49net, Frajile) himself, "Burn From The Inside" appears on A side in a hypnotic, acid and devastating Miami electro bass version. Transformed... read more

Third compilation from this excellent Belgian label marked by the appearance of a plethora of new talents. If contested Djzleite stays true to Miami Bass spirit, Restless Legs Syndrome, Klement, Natan Vance and Noirfluo bring the EP back to Detroit. At last Manasyt, the next Touchin' Bass signature, delivers with "Like You Said" a powerful and controlled hit, no doubt one of Casino Suicide climax. Essential!

Virgil Enzinger's sound could be compared to Johannes Heil's one. Author under Primal Plant pseudo of two EP's on Neuton label Genau, Austrian producer delivers here four explosive and distorted new tracks with lots of bass. Pumpin' and heavy, this hard techno 12'' introduces as well light strings just to let you breathe on the dance floor. Brilliant!

Oldschool rhythms, hip hop vocals, furious scratches, engaged 808 and vintage melodies, something to bring you back 20 years behind, in a time original rap, broadcast by overboosted ghetto blasters in the streets, was engaging B Boys into a war without victims. Co-produced with The Brothers Supreme and 2 Counts Ice on A side, Jazzy D on the flip, this excellent 7'' offers two incredible electro funk pieces focused on the dancefloor. A must have.
