Artist: TRESHER, GREGOR
Title: The Heartbeat Orchestra
Label: BREAK NEW SOIL (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: BNS 001EP
"Gregor Tresher is proud to present his brand new and very own label Break New Soil Recordings, and with this first release from the man himself the focus is clearly set. Two dark and epic masterpieces, that unfold their raw explosive power over the length of more than nine minutes each. This is Gregor´s view into the future of techno -- but also a hint to the past, to the energy of the early days, to long forgotten basement parties with just a strobelight on. 'Unfold' is truly a peaktime monster, building up its hypnotic magic through an acidic melody that transforms over and over again on the way to its climax that will tear roofs off clubs all over the planet. On the flip we have the title track 'The Heartbeat Orchestra' -- another epic rave destroyer built to do serious damage on the dancefloors."


Artist: TRESHER, GREGOR
Title: Lights From The Inside
Label: BREAK NEW SOIL (GERMANY)
Format: CD
Price: $17.00
Catalog #: BNS 002CD
This is the third studio album from German DJ/producer Gregor Tresher. In the recent past, the producer of 2008's best-selling techno track on Beatport ("A Thousand Nights") has aspired to make music he would want to play out. While Lights From The Inside features several songs sure to find favor with Tresher's nightclub colleagues, this 12-song odyssey operates on multiple levels. Just as a painting or photograph appears to move if one stares at it long enough, with close listening, the stratified grooves and melodies assembled on Lights From The Inside reveal an organic universe of shifting sound. Meticulous attention to the latter element, melody, was of utmost concern to the Frankfurt resident. Not obvious, eight-bar earworms that would quickly exhaust their welcome, but musical lines that could repeat and intertwine in different patterns, "melodies that are more subtle and develop as you're listening." In this regard, Lights From The Inside harks back to Tresher's earlier releases, even as his aesthetic continues to evolve in new directions. Tone color was also a key consideration. Listen to the interplay of slow-moving tones and twinkling sounds on the title track, or how muted snare hits reverberate against the chilly lower registers of "Leaving." It's no coincidence that the almost-tactile crackles, clanks and pops animating the whole album sometimes recall Depeche Mode's Construction Time Again; the producer cites that 1984 classic as a long-time inspiration, alongside work by other electro-pop iconoclasts from that era. The album's play of light against darkness and its pervasive mood of melancholy, both underscored by its title, betray a more specific influence on Tresher's latest offering: The Cure's Disintegration. As on that 1989 landmark, he aspired to create an all-encompassing sense of atmosphere, as well as a comprehensive album that covered varied emotional terrain. Towards that end, specific set pieces guide the shape and flow of the record: The menacing opener "Shadow Layers"; the concise, ebullient interlude "If Only"; and "Destroy," a metallic, rumbling closer that concludes the album with an air of questions-yet-unanswered. Tresher aspires to create what another producer once sagely called "music that makes you dance and cry at the same time." With its simultaneous, synchronized appeal to the feet, head and heart, Lights From The Inside succeeds.


Artist: PAPINI, DANIELE
Title: Hidden Source
Label: BREAK NEW SOIL (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: BNS 002EP
"While Gregor Tresher´s own debut on his new label is still causing a stir on the dancefloors, we are now very happy to have one of last year's most promising talents on board for the second release: Daniele Papini, born and raised in Italy and now relocated to the German techno capital Berlin, gained loads of respect for his breakthrough hit 'Church Of Nonsense' on Mauro Picotto's Alchemy label, definitely being one of last year's biggest tracks that was played by literally every DJ on the planet. Also his collaboration with Hugo on Systematic -- a groove monster par excellence -- underlined his status of being one of the new faces of the moment. Now Daniele comes up with what we think is his biggest track so far: 'Hidden Source' has it all. It's a quite basic yet highly effective melodic tune that will turn every dusty basement club into the most perfect summer dancefloor you can imagine! It has been one of the biggest tracks in Gregor's DJ-sets for the last weeks causing madness on every dancefloor he played it out."


Artist: TRESHER, GREGOR
Title: The Life Wire Part 1
Label: BREAK NEW SOIL (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: BNS 004EP
"With his debut longplayer A Thousand Nights from 2007 Gregor Tresher undoubtedly upgraded himself into the Champions League of European techno artists, with the title song being the year´s best selling techno song on Beatport. And also the following releases on labels like Josh Wink´s Ovum or Dubfire´s Sci +Tec made it into the playlists of almost every big name DJ around the world. Now Gregor has taken the next step and presents a foretaste of his upcoming second album. The title track once more is 'another paradigm of Gregor´s talent of creating epic techno tracks with enigmatic harmonies to make them true anthems of the night' (Groove Magazine, #117). Gregor is working with classic sounding filtered synthesizer-lines, and when the bassline finally kicks in, we can already see everyone´s hands in the air. The second track 'Escape To Amsterdam' is a techno track par excellence, made by a DJ for the DJs, going down a storm everywhere Gregor is playing it out. It´s no wonder that Dutch Techno-Don Dylan Hermelijn aka 2000 And One picked it for remixing already. And finally, on the B-Side, we have the first remix for the Life Wire Project, and with Petar Dundov it is one of the first artists on Gregor's wishlist of remixers for the album. With his recent releases the Croatian has impressively shown his talent of creating the most amazing melodies and once more, his remix leaves nothing to be desired: His 'Petar Dundov Variation' is an incredibly beautiful piece of music, that will ignite open air floors over the summer, and we are extremely happy with this first interpretation of Gregor´s track."


Artist: TRESHER, GREGOR
Title: The Life Wire Part 2
Label: BREAK NEW SOIL (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: BNS 005EP
"Break New Soil presents Part 2 of Gregor Tresher's album vinyl series, including a stunning remix by Martinez. 'Awaking Life Inside' on the A-Side is undoubtedly a true Tresher production, and has got everything an open air hymn needs. It has been played by Gregor on heavy rotation on the festivals this summer and went down like a storm everywhere he dropped it. Now it finally gets released on vinyl and comes with a second original track: 'Plutonian Shores' is an excursion into deep sci-fi tech-funk and another highlight of The Life Wire album. On the flipside we are more than happy to present the second remix for the album by one of the year´s most exciting artists: Martinez from Stockholm has been producing music for over a decade and it´s simply unbelievable how he delivers one floorburner after the other this year. He also picked the title track of the album for his remix and has put the original vocal effects over one of his signature monster grooves that will definitely work every dancefloor."

Price: $12.00
Catalog #: BNS 007EP
"The latest release on Gregor Tresher´s Break New Soil is an instant classic: Raw but modern, massive but sophisticated, techno but house -- and ready to burn dancefloors everywhere! Break New Soil starts 2010 with a release that has been one of the highlights in Gregor Tresher's DJ-sets for months: Kiko & Gino's - The Beautiful People. French artist Kiko does not really need an introduction, he has released records on labels like Good Life, Ozone, Different or Afu and is one of the key players of the French techno scene of the last decade. The release is a debut in many ways: It's the first BNS by a French artist and it also is the first release that made it the classic way by sending in a demo -- when Gregor listened to it the first time the decision to release it was made before the track was over. 'The Beautiful People' is an instant classic: Raw but modern, massive but sophisticated, techno but house -- and ready to burn dancefloors everywhere!"
