Seamless Black Label returns with a stunning 3 track EP from Pete Moss. Pete's classic and present releases are staples in the community that no self respecting house DJ would be caught without. Prolific and hard working, Pete has served up a steady stream of music despite his hectic travel schedule that takes him around the world. Pete has played at some of the worlds best clubs including Fabric London, which has been voted worlds best club in 2008, and has also mixed compilations for top underground labels such as Steve Bugs´ Dessous.

He has tracks on labels such as I Records, Ovum, Glasgow Underground, Large and his own label Recline amongst many others. He has remixed many underground and deep house artists including Kevin Yost, Adam Jace, Da Funk, Daniel Kyo, Kormix, Jay J, Cosmic Belt, Stan Kolev, Benji Candelario, and many more. Pete Moss is a brilliant producer, an unforgettable DJ, and an industry leader in pushing the underground deep house sound of now.

His EP consists of three tracks and the first is the title track of the ep Top Of The Trees. This is a percussive deep and up beat journey like track, with some excellent rhythms and grooves. The second track on the ep is Decoded Soul, this has a lot of soul and will hit you deep inside. With great arrangement this is a fantastic track to listen to. The last track on the ep is Wisdom. This is a solid deep and slightly moody with opening up synth sounds and some nice percussion, this flows smoothly along and is a very cool underground track.

Rebirth Records celebrates the 50th release with something really special Tevo Howard can be surely defined as the new unsung hero of Chicago House Music !

Born and raised in the city that saw the birth of house music, Tevo Howard caught the mixing bug at an early age via his older brother, taking advantage of easy access to his decks throughout his teenage years and securing residencies at local clubs by the time he was just sixteen. He went to Gramaphone and Wax Trax Records to buy records with his daily lunch money. Music has always been in his family; his father Rick, currently living in Berlin, is a blues and jazz artist and has been a great influence for Tevo and featured in a lot of his records. Tevo's music is injecting full-blooded soul into a scene that risks to sound flat and two-dimensional. He says House music has a living, breathing soul. That soul will always exist in some form.

 'Without Me' is a beautiful emotional track that channels the raw spirit of Tevo's hometown Chicago with dirty synth basslines, strings, and a super-hypnotic piano theme ! It became a classic at Panoramabar since it came out in 2008 on Tevo's Beautiful Granville Records. Rebirth picked it up and now is ready to release it with an haunting vocal from the amazing Tracey Thorn. English pop singer and songwriter, Tracey has been making music professionally for nearly thirty years, since 1980 when her group The Marine Girls released their debut album. Best known as being one half of the duo Everything but the Girl (alongside her husband Ben Watt), and for her collaborations with Massive Attack, she has just released her third solo album Love and its Opposite on Strange Feeling / Buzzin Fly Records. Tracey really liked the track and came up with a special song. Timeless vocals and beautiful melodies, she has been such an inspiration for all of us !

Tevo Howard says Through my eyes Tracey Thorns vocals concretes the fairly mono-tonal composition that i set out to create in Without me. Entirely Thorn addresses the emotion and lyric-content that i imagined as an artist, which proves to me once again that she is one of the greatest singers of all times.

On the remix front Marcus Worgull and Dixon strip the vocals back and deliver a fantastic warm hypnotic dub with their typical Innervisions vibe. The image for the artwork has been produced by the talented painter Markus Kiniger.

"Day One" is label boss UNER's new production. A track that has also been chosen as the official theme of Madrid's January festival, of the same name. An event that will host a variety of artists and DJ's, including the likes of Richie Hawtin, Luciano, Marco Carola and Loco Dice.

"Day One" has three key elements: the percussion, which gives dynamism. The bassline groove, which makes it perfect for the floor. And large slice of harmony, that shows the deep and emotional side of the track.

After the success of Bad Omen and the accompanying remixes, Asymmetric Recordings are proud to welcome Roberto back to the stable with the superb new 'Trailer Trash' EP.

The lead track from the release is a slight departure from his usual driving techy sound, and instead focuses around a brooding atmospheric formula. Deep House enthusiasts will gravitate towards the lush synths and subtle bassline stabs that feature throughout, and will almost certainly adore the warmth that radiates from the breakdown. The track is certainly reminiscent of the productions of Thomas Schumacher and Andre Lodemann, amongst others, and demonstrates Roberto's versatility when it comes to crafting high-calibre electronica from across the spectrum of House & Techno.

Landing with a slightly more bass-driven approach, Kobb offers up the first of the two remixes. This weighty remix takes the key elements of the originals riff, and twists them into a slow-building Tech-House groove which culminates with a seismic drop around the 6-minute mark. Excellent peak-time material that will inject energy into your set in colossal amounts, whilst leaving the dance floor in a state of total rapture.

Rounding off what is clearly another smash EP for Asymmetric, the Right2Dance remix takes a slightly more psychadelic turn from the first two tracks. Cascading acidic melodies layer over the delicate looped riff, which is beautifully complimented by a tight percussion and an upbeat bassline. This high-spirited rendition will seek out the rays of sunlight from even the gloomiest of days, and fans of Guy J and the like will find plenty to shout about here.

All in all, another impeccable release from Asymetric, and another direct hit from Roberto whos been enjoying a wealth of success recently. Releases on Jamie Andersons Artform imprint, as well as ongoing support from the likes of Steve Rachmad, Samuel L Sessions, and Terry Francis (among others) is cementing him as one of Dance musics brightest new talents. And this EP for Asymmetric Recordings is testament to this.

Oslo Records welcomes the extraordinary artist Reboot with his first EP "Into Oblivion".

After he caused a sensation in 2009 with his Split- EP "Hello Sweden" on the sub-label "Love Letter from Oslo", he shows us again an incredible EP.

"Macchina" on the A side is a rolling track that builds up more and more so that the audience goes slowly to ecstatic explosions on the dancefloor.

"En Place" on the B side is a typical tool à la 'Frank' Reboot - very percussive and groovy, making them ideally suited to shake up the more advanced hours.

It’s been a while since our last release in Factor City, the great “Te guardo una tarde de sol ep (FC029)” from Holger Zilske & Dave Dk came out just before summer time, but here we’re back again to bring you some fresh sounds from Montpellier’s Nhar and Monterrey’s Daniel Maloso.

In the last years Nhar’s been releasing quality electronics in different labels such as Soma, Mobilee or Wir. He already released one track for our 5th anniversary compilation last year, the acid and dark “Thought pattern”. But this is his solo debut in Factor City.

“Pompyro EP” comes with two tracks ready for some dancefloor action. “Pompyro” is a deep and hypnotic journey, a crazy bassline drives the track, crossed by dark pads and powerfull drums. Following the emo vibes of the release “Evocation” sees Nhar go right back to his roots with an electro techno number emphasized with spectral robotic voices.

Daniel Maloso’s remix of “Evocation” drives the original into a classic Cómeme burner. This young mexican producer based in Barcelona has been showing his production skills in the exciting Matias Aguayo’s label together with Rebolledo or alone in the fantastic “Ritmo especial”. His sound crosses from Morricone to Cowley, cosmic rock, body music and disco always with a latin attitude.

With 'Tiny Little Widgets', Martin Eyerer has just finished his second solo album. Two years after the distinctly dance-floor and club-oriented 'Word of Mouth', he now comes up with a long player which offers more variety between Dj-tools and listening pieces. Martin Eyerer has deliberately picked artists from different genres and countries with whom to collaborate on the originals as well as for the remix sessions.

Catweasel is the second single taken out of the album 'Tiny Little Widgets' .Comes up with fantasic remixes by Nicole Moudaber and Martin Woerner.

Marco Resmann has done it. The studio computer is purring again like a satisfied kitten and those dark technical storm clouds have passed by. To prove that a streak of technical bad luck which he has just gone through can sometimes enhance creativity, he has come up with this little gem of a new single Drop Outz.

On A1 we have 'Mal Pas' (transl: difficult road) which is an ode to the suffering he went through with his computer. But dont worry, its just a name, the track itself is as light and sweet as the stuff that we love from Marco.

B1 is also little beauty, no dark clouds to be found here either, and B2, a cracker called 'What's Cracking' is the ultimate proof to anyone that the sun always shines at Upon You. Enjoy and always think happy thoughts friends!

Our first official 2011 release comes from very talented artist from Venezuela - Manuel Rocca. His first release on our label is called Open Sea and comes with his Original Mix and Remixes by Anske and Running Man.

Original Mix is really nice soft trance tune. Manuel shows he knows how to produce impressive sound. Main melody touches your heart immediately so you wish you have hands to fly!

Anske took the harder way of remixing suitable to club floors to make you scream for more. Hard kick, raw bass club feel - all that clubbers ask for.

Running Man is already known for his amazing productions and he only proves his skills in his remix. Very smooth from beginning to the end with such energy so wanted these days.

Aly & Fila, Steve Anderson, Fast Distance, ReOrder, Harris C, Victoria, Jorn Van Deynhoven, Manuel Le Saux, Ashley Wallbridge, and many more...

The Hideout 'Deconstruction Revisited' series is going into phase two, here we go: After the french connection (D´Julz and Paul Ritch), this new release sees a more international bundle of top class producers: To start, we have Dusseldorf ´s master producer Martin Buttrich (Desolat, Planet E, ...) put his magic hands on Davide Squillace & Luca bacchetti´s  Around the bay (HO001).

The track starts with an "acoustic style" beat and, a strong sine sub bass line, evolving to a jacking groove with  rising vocal sample, intelligent synth lines, and arabic flute break.

On B2, Carola Pisaturo (Titbit, Claque) delivers a more minimal rework, using bouncy sub bass, vocal snipets, 909 snare and clap... giving Davide Squillace and Luca Bacchetti's Around the Bay a rebirth.

On the flip side, Mathias Kaden's (Vakant, Cocoon) relecture starts with a strong shuffled tribal beat , 909 toms , synth lines... Mathias interprets the original elements of Around The bay in a very personal way , dropping snipets into reverbs and delays in order to create a deep rising atmosphere untill the track peaks.

Just like in Davide's and Luca's sets - just when you thought there can't be more after the peak, they surprise you with another groove that captures body & mind: Enjoy this edition of the Deconstruction Revisited series, they'll be back with more!

Next Slices will include revisits by Martin Buttrich, Carola Pisaturo, Mathias Kaden, Sis, Robertz Dietz, Jamie Jones, ...

FVF are delighted to announce the return of the ever-talented Lado. This time remix duties are taken over by Tony Rohr under his Oddmatik guise. This very strong EP showcases Lado's talent as a producer and as someone who has cemented their position at the top of FVF's roster.

The EP's title track hits the spot from the get go: evil synth, smart sub, a sick hook, twisted vocals and effects combine to give 'TV Junkie' a tangible punch... niche, peak time play. 'Bad Bad Drums' twists & turns with pulses of minimal reluctance, while "Tony Rohr's Oddmatik Remix" tweaks the spot in all the right places with a super bass line and a steady, neurotic build.

Already road tested at FVF nights in London & Dublin, this handy three tracker is something you won't do without on those cold autumnal nights!

Ground Factory is back with the techno which they well known for. Three tracks featuring Kalden Bess & Kimono, Patch Park and Ron Costa.

The Original Mix by Kalden Bess (aka m0h) and Kimono is a heavyweight revolving around a beat that never let go. Somewhat like an audio train, the track features some broken tribal percussive layers and a clever use of audio saturation and white noise that build up until implosion. The breakdown is all about hypnosis, and the kicks are all about bulldozers. This track is all about the Berghain.

Patch Park lives up to his reputation and delivers a deeper interpretation of the source material. Quite close to the original, this remix revolves around hynotic percussions and heavy bass, with an extra synth loop creating a deep effect that should not fool you into thinking this is going to be smooth. In the middle of the track, a very heavily saturated breakdown culminates with a seriously banging bassline that should annihilate everything between the speakers. Except maybe cockroaches.

The Ron Costa interpretation of the track is aimed at a different audience and will be a total match with tech-house dance floors. Using the tribal vibe of the original track, it brings in the funk of tech-house into the mix by turning the bassline into a sweet, groovy one. It introduces subtle vocal elements and play games with the percussive elements, while retaining the saturated aspect of the original via hi-hats that are almost nothing short of white noise.

Thank you for your support and charting !

Richie Hawtin, Stephan Bodzin, Secret Cinema, Timo Maas, Slam, Gary Beck, Fergie, Jim Rivers, John Selway and many more...

On Red Bus EP you'll find three amazing house tunes with vocals. 'Ichar's Wings' opens up with wide pads, stacky chords, deep vibes and soulful rhythms accompany this beautiful club track. What makes the difference, though, to all other house tracks at the moment who also use chords and deep vibes, is the incredible use of the main melody and vocals by Alex Petrelli.

Guaranteed to be a big winner on the fucking floor. 'Hua' puts in the reverse gear and drops this melancholic and intensively emotional track. Starting with a beautiful pad, it emerges into a Detroit-ish vocal driven bomb keeping the positive vibe alive at all times with its piano hits. Just close your eyes and let it take you wherever you wanna go! This release shows how diverse Francesco is.

Felix Bernhardt serves your desks! Two new great tracks plus an extra digital only track in his pumping and bumbing style. After all his great release on AFU and Snork he prooves again, that he s one of the current 5-star chefs in the kitchen of electronic dance music in all underground locations. So, bon appetit!

What a lovely couple they are - Berlin based techno producer Daso and Israeli Band Ofrin team up for their first common production „Time For Decisions“. The melancholic and highly emotional house-track was originally featured on Connaisseur's label-compilation „Grand Cru 2010“ earlier this year. Now it is being released as a slightly more clubby version as a 12“ including two exclusive remixes.

The soulful voice of Ofri Brin may be new in the realm of electronic music. But the Israeli Chanteuse is far form being a newcomer. Since 2005, Ofri And Oded K-Dar aka Ofrin has released three albums and toured countless venues throughout Europe. Their move to Berlin finally established ties to the lively house- and techno-scene of Germanys capital. Part of it is Daso Franke. He has gained fame with almost a dozen releases under his belt, that perfectly blend electronic music with a catchiness rarely found. „Time For Decisions“ shows their shared love for emotional pop-moments. This is where Daso and Ofrin meet.

Their release comes with two additional remixes by Berlin producer Ralf Schmidt. He has been really busy recently setting up his own label Aleph, besides working on tracks for Belgian Curle Recordings and Fauxpas Musik. On Connaisseur, Ralf Schmidt is using his moniker Aera, delivering an ultra-moody interpretation of „Time For Decisions“. A special remix for special moments. Moreover Schmidt is one half of Goldwill, with studiopartner and DJ Henry Behring at his side. The duo has been releasing amazing deep house music since 2008. Their records can be found on Steve Bug's Dessous Recordings, Kollektiv Turmstrasse's Musik Gewinnt Freunde and liebe*detail. Over the summer, their 12“ „What Is Behind“ out on Mojuba Sublabel Wandering, was on heavy rotation on the turntables of many acknowledgeable DJs. The „Time For Decisions“-remix further emphazises, that Goldwill are one of the up-and-coming artists on the scene.

Having brought you the recent releases from Ripperton's always on point Perspectiv label, and seen the overwhelming support they have received from both DJ's and press. We are excited to now bring you our first campaign for the 'digital' arm of the imprint, and a debut from the young, up and coming team of, Darlyn Vlys & Days Off.

Seen most recently together on their Sincopat release 'Soleil Levant', the two Frenchman are ploughing their very own, unique musical path. Darlyn's career, having already released on labels including Upon You, Get Physical, Metroline and International Freakshow, is progressing at a furious pace. His penchant for vocals, and his talent for working with them, has already won him a devoted following. It was his competition-winning remix of Röyksop that first brought the production talents of Days Off to peoples attention.

Since then his has released on Stripped Recordings, Espai Music. Together the pair are a musical match made in heaven. 'Mercredi' sees the duo, once again present a glorious, weekend-ushering electronic soundtrack. Sincopat boss AFFKT, repays the Frenchmen with not one but two reworks. The bass-heavy 'JH' remix.

We love house music. We love the old school way. That's why we've asked to two whirl artists like Spencer Parker and Livio & Roby for doing the remixes of the Suara number 30. The result is unquestionably impressive. The Perlonesque feel of Livio & Roby remix is so sweet. And the raw version of Spencer makes me feel in a warehouse of Chicago at the earlies 80's. But these two fucking good remixes couln't be possible without two great tracks like "Yes I Need You" and "Feel So Good", the double side of the same coin.

Two tracks in one for different moments of the night made by two rising stars of the Dutch league, Kid Culture & Thomas Robson. The first one is hot and sexy. A must if you are a Dj who likes to work flat out your sets and make sweat the floor. "Feel So Good" is the warmer one. Emo but enough juicy, i've played it hardly during the last Summer and it always was one of the tracks of the night. I'm very proud to see this record released on Suara. Like Kid Culture & Thomas Robson says, it makes me feel me so good…
