DJ Dixon’s “Temporary Secretary” is his first “official” mix tape, since he put “Body Language Vol. 4” (Get Physical) together and portrayed all the different aspects during the course of a night and its particular dramaturgy in great detail. This selection is a conscious snapshot. Neither obliged to be a strict club set that has to work for any given dance floor or act as an addendum to “Body Language” nor designed to follow a certain concept like Henrik Schwarz / Âme / Dixon’s “Grandfather Paradox” (BBE) did within the annals of minimal music, “Temporary Secretary” is the third gender.

Catalog#: PERL 76
Format: 3 x Vinyl, 12", Album

Since his relocation to Berlin a couple of years back we've witnessed a marked shift in tempos and style from his more dubstep compatible productions on Skull Disco towards a tempered blend of that city's house and techno modes sharing a common theme of dubwise rhythmic experimentation. Now a resident of the Perlon camp, home to the unique productions of Ricardo Villalobos, Stefan Goldman and Soulphiction among others, he's created a set of rhythms that reinforce his status as one of the most interesting producers - dancefloor or otherwise - in operation right now. All the familiar hallmarks of his style are present, from the often claustrophobically tactile bass weight, to industrial tainted atmospheres and intricate percussive programming, forming loose patterns peculiarly at odds with the metronomic heritage of Berlin but fully in tune with the physical urge that drives so much of it's music.

Richard Bartz - Subway

Label: Kanzleramt
Catalog#: KA 148 CD
Format: CD, Album, Partially Mixed
Country: Germany
Released: 27 May 2009
Genre: Electronic
Style: Techno, Tech House

Tracklist:

05. Nuke
06. Exodisco
07. Way Out
08. Rise

10. Smile
11. Raindrops

The Subway CD is not just a simple compilation of the last two 12inches Subway II & III. Richard produced 4 more exclusive Songs especially for this 11 Track CD. Furthermore this CD is harmonically compiled and gently mixed by Heiko Laux. Richard Bartz’ roots strike back into the early 90’s. Counting sweet 14 years, he climbed the toilet window and sneaked into the legendary "Ultraworld“ parties, hiding all night long behind the bass speakers. The German techno scene was just about to emerge as Richard absorbed every little beep he could get; - until he got caught by the party organizer Upstart, who promptly took him under his wings. In the following years, accompanied by Upstart and his friend DJ Hell, he rapidly grew to a live act and producer of international top ranking. In the process, he became one of the founders of "Munich techno" - a powerful, groovy, and highly influential variant of what was then called „funky techno“ and is nowadays established as "minimal". Having had amazing success with his first releases on Disko B under his pseudonym "Acid Scout", Richard Bartz founded his own record label "Kurbel Records" in 1996. On Kurbel Records he started by releasing many of his own tracks, which are now considered classics like "Style Wars", "Ghettoblaster" and "The Traveller". Pretty soon, Richard’s label became the romping place for red-hot artists like DJ Hell ("Take A Shot/Break The Rulez"), and Heiko Laux ("Souldancer"), as well as the just emerging Christian Morgenstern, Savas Pascalidis, and Lars Sommerfeld.

Label: Crosstown Rebels
Catalog#: CRMCD009
Format: CD, Album
Country: UK
Released: 31 August 2009
Genre: Electronic
Style: Minimal, Tech House

Tracklist:
01. Don't You Remember The Future

07. Sand Dunes
08. Absolute Zero ft Alison Mars
09. Galactic Space Bar ft The Egyptian Lover

The album drops just at the right time for the English producer, as he's just scored one of the biggest hits of this year's Winter Music Conference in Miami with his "Summertime" track, which features vocals from Norwegian duo Ost & Kjex. If you missed the boat on that one, then don't worry, as Jones has seen fit to include the track as part of the album, which will go under the title of Don't You Remember the Future. Apart from "Summertime" and forthcoming single "Galactic Space Bar" (which features a vocal from electro pioneer The Egyptian Lover), the rest of the album is made up of ten previously unreleased tracks, which will be either mixed or unmixed depending on what format you plump for. The CD will mesh Jones' slick tech-house into a singular uptempo journey, whilst vinyl and digital buyers will have the tracks separated for DJing ease.

Ground control to Pablo (ten, nine, eight, seven, six). The countdown begins. Engines running (five, four, three, two?)? With his glance fixed on the infinite and beyond. This is how Pablo Bolívar returns with his Recall (Regular 09), after his successful Anjanas album (Regular, 2006).
An outer space idm experience with a touch of playful experimentation. Packed with growing & dreamful secuences, Recall is a journey through the nooks and crannies of the mind of this restless dj and producer, that has been a member of the Barcelona based Regular label from it?s very beginnings, making experimentation his trademark. Putting the hypnotic frequencies of his Pulshar project on hold (a project formed together with Sergio Aphro that has been praised and filled with recognition by the specialized press and the public and that will have continuity soon), Pablo returns to his roots. Playing with horizontal processing and transforming cold and empty secuences into warm, ethereal and cristal clear tracks. Like a laid back trip to the rings of Saturn.

What a/an _____ (fill in appropriately) !!!!

2009-07-25T19:50:00.003+03:00

In order to understand how ridiculous is the person that is taking down the links, he came across to my latest post which is a digital netlabel release of a friend of mine. The old friends of this blog know about this netlabel and my connection with it. But he didn't because he is a/an _____ (fill in appropriately).

The compilation has been posted because my friend and label owner asked me to do it (actually, I was planning to post it too)

I came into contact with Rapidshare in order to unblock the link and reveal who is responsible for this abuse report.

As soon as I have an update, I will revert to this post.
