Title:	Bleepy Creep EP

Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	3RD 005EP

With Cassie remixe. "Straight outta Stuttgart this fifth installment from Copenhagen-based label 3rd Floor is definitely destined to create a jackin' stir in Bleepville. First up is the more jackin' minimal tune of the lot. The simple and techy elements are intertwining on top of a minimal drum pattern and enchanting the listener with a pair of theme plays -- one bleepy, the other melancholic. This is damage on the dancefloor and a definite head bopper and ass shaker. For the fourth and final track of the EP, Cassy is brought in on remix duty and does a makeover of 'Bleepy Creep' (A1) that introduces new elements and new energies. The remix is based on minimal references and stays low and repetitive. A driving, exhalatory vocal and the occasionally inserted piano outline the identity of the track. Fans of the minimal sound will definitely embrace this warm and hypnotic track."

Title:	101 Regards
Label:	3RD FLOOR (DENMARK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	3RD 006EP

"Martinez's first release on 3rd Floor Records is set to take the spitzenklasse quality of the label to unprecedented heights. The ball is opened with Martinez' trademark sound, but 'Mistlur' is nevertheless combining old and new sound -- thereby extending the reach of the Martinez fan base. Layering tons of hypnotic and enchanting sounds that twirls in and out on top of the warm driving bass line in perfect conjunction with the subtle theme play, this track is an absolute killer and we pity the fool who sits by without getting into a serious groove. 'Sliderglider' represents the minimal and bouncy sound on this 12". The primary bass line is deep and driving and requires plenty of room, but the accompanying effects and synths have a more minimal feel to them thus resulting in a very effective sound. Making sure no one is left alive on the dance floor, '101 Regards' finishes off this electronic slaughter in a very hypnotic and building fashion."

Title:	Maher Amad EP

Catalog #:	3RD 007EP

"Swiss DJ and producer Dani Koenig is the next star on 3rd Floor Records. With releases on own and other labels since 1995, this is a gentleman who's been around for a long time and should be reckoned with. Most recently he's released on four:twenty Recordings which was a big success. We believe that what he delivers here is of his very finest. A1. 'Floatet' -- A perfect A-side! The thumping and grooving bass line is the heart and life-giving source of this track. Layer upon layer of rolling percussions, filled with energy. As explicit as the sun on a summer day."

Title:	Retrospective EP
Label:	3RD FLOOR (DENMARK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	3RD 008EP

"The record is already gaining support from far and wide by DJs like Loco Dice,Tiefschwarz, Mathias Kaden, Serafin and Federico Molinari. A serious dose of forward thinking house music, and a must for the spring! These days, Martinez is gaining a lot of appreciation with his releases on Cray 1 Labworks, LoMidHigh Ltd. and his own Re:Connected label. What a lot of people don't realize is that the man actually kicked off his music production career on the famed Chicago house label, Guidance. For his second release on 3rd Floor Records, the busy Dane/Swede has come up with what we believe is a perfect mix between his house-side and his newer material with a more techno-ish touch. 'Retrospective' is a hard-hitting piece of swing techno, while 'Blue Line' is a deeper, slightly hypnotic house affair still with the serious injection of funk that underlines the A-side."
