Artist: DEADSET
Title: Tick Tock
Label: FRONT ROOM (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $10.00
Catalog #: FRM 019EP
"Deadset return to Front Room with their third single 'Tick Tock' from their album, Keys Open Doors. Deadset set the bar impressively high. Based on a simple sample sound taken from a grandfather clock that stands in the hallway of the studio where most of the album was written, this track perfectly illustrates the organic house feel that defines the Deadset sound.The A-side is a perfect late night/early morning dancefloor session on wax. Made for dancing, it's heavy bottom-end works perfectly with the vocal elements and grandfather clock to create a truly memorable piece of audio.The B-side features the tough, stripped-back dub efforts of none other than man of the moment and reigning title-holder of world's biggest Deadset fan, Jesse Rose. Effortlessly powerful and designed for the heads-down, hip wigglers amongst you. Is it any wonder that DJs like Jesse Rose, Laurent Garnier, DJ T and Switch all put their hands up in class when asked if they're dead certain about Deadset."


Artist: STEINBERG PRES. COBRA LIMBOS, DANIEL
Title: Cobra Limbos
Label: FRONT ROOM (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: FRM 020EP
"Artists such as Jesse Rose, Solid Groove (aka Switch), Deadset, Trevor Loveys and Jamie Anderson are just some of the artists that have released on Front Room Recordings. Front Room continues to push the boundaries of cutting edge dancefloor music with the first appearance on the label from Daniel Steinburg (aka Harry Axt) under the guise of Cobra Limbos. Having had great success on labels such as Microfon, Grandpetrol and Stylerockets, Daniel Steinberg now delivers a really innovative new twist on house with Cobra Limbos. The AA-side entitled, 'Cobra Limbos' is a dancefloor smash that fuses Caribbean style maranga with the beats, bleeps and bass that Daniel has become renowned for on tracks like his recent smash, 'Pay For Me.' This track will not only set dancefloors alight but is also destined to ignite festivals and carnivals the world over with its fresh take on house. Side A takes you on a slightly deeper journey with, 'Waiting For Something.' Hypnotically deep and grooving with defined, intriguing elements, this track combines and contrasts well with the liveliness of 'Cobra Limbos.' Both tracks are mainstays in the sets of label boss Jesse Rose. His global popularity is a product of his individual style and fresh take on music, and this release serves to illustrate his A&R skills in full action."

"Having had great success on labels such as Microfon, Grandpetrol and Stylerockets, Daniel Steinberg is now one of the main representatives on Front Room and with this release delivers another innovative new twist on house. With the summer sounds of his last Front Room release Cobra Limbos still resonating around clubs, festivals and house lovers, Daniel delivers two more huge tracks. 'Uptown' has the beats, bleeps and bass that Daniel has become renowned for, and with its cut-up vocals is catching people's heads just like he did with his huge smash 'Pay For Me.' On the flip, 'Revival' is a more hypnotically deep groover that builds continuously yet remains innovative and intriguing from beginning to end. Daniel Steinberg's releases are being played by the likes of Ricardo Villalobos, Luciano, Claude VonStroke and Richie Hawtin to name a few, and his talents continue to blossom with every stroke. Many of Daniel Steinberg's productions are mainstays in the sets of label boss Jesse Rose, whose global popularity is a product of his individual style and fresh take on music. This release is another illustration of Jesse's A&R skills in full action. Artists such as Jesse Rose, Solid Groove (aka Switch), Trevor Loveys, Deadset and Style of Eye are just some of the artists that have released on Front Room Recordings in the past."


Artist: CONTENT
Title: The Tribute
Label: FRONT ROOM (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: FRM 023EP
"Who is Content? Well it's none other than label boss Jesse Rose! For those of you wondering how it's possible that Jesse could write such deep tracks, let's not forget the Induceve project on Classic Records which saw subaquatic releases such as Monolevel & Papillion produced with production partner Solid Groove. Jesse also co-produced the epic Stop, Look & Listen with Henrik Schwarz, also released on Front Room. So now that that's sorted. On the flip, Mr. Matt Edwards heard the original and asked to do the Radio Slave remix! The results speak for themselves. Front Room is on proper form right now with resident producers Danial Steinberg, Eye of Style and Deadset knocking out constant quality and there is talk of a new super deep EP coming from none other than London producer Duke Dumont. Looks like another stellar year."

"Daniel Steinberg continues to have great success on labels such as Microfon, Grandpetrol and Stylerockets and is also the main representative for Front Room Recordings. With his last EP -- featuring 'Keep On Movin' and 'Don't You Know?' -- enjoying such widespread success, we thought we should call upon the remix skills of Roman Flügel and Siopis for this release. Roman has been artistically active since the 1990s with his own labels Playhouse, Ongaku Musik and Klang Elektronik contributing some of the best house around throughout the years. His remixes for the likes of Pet Shop Boys, Human League, Primal Scream and Kylie Minogue have garnered him a worldwide recognition, and now he delivers in true style to Front Room. Siopis, fresh from his Get Physical release Penny From The Lane, has also recently remixed Mr. Static which has further pushed his name into the international dance music vocabulary. His work can also be spotted on some of the most prominent labels like Get Physical, BPitch Control and Crosstown Rebels to name a few. Three quality remixes making one brilliant EP that maintains Front Room at the top of its game."

Artist: &ME
Title: On
Label: FRONT ROOM (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: FRM 028EP
"You may not have heard so much from Andre (aka &ME) so far. Instead of the flash and glitter associated with most of his producer colleagues, he's preferred to stay in the shadows, co-producing and ghost writing for artists like DJ Hell and Terranova. Now after putting out his first solo single on Keinemusik, which was supported by all the key players (Front Room label boss Jesse Rose, Luke Solomon, Gabriel Ananda, Danny Tenaglia and Dubfire plus many more) &ME is finally ready to 'go public' as they say. He may have taken some time to figure out his own style of blending techno and house music, but now that he's out, there's really no escape. With a name like an attention deficit child's mantra, it's a wonder he stayed 'in' so long. The On EP is an excursion into the type of techno-dusted pulsating minimal house that has been so big for artists like Luciano Esse and Arnaud le Texier and which is heard on heavy rotation in Berlin meccas like Bar25. With A Side 'On''s ever present digital squelches (reminiscent of a Rolf Harrris style wobble board) are laid over shakers, stripped-back beat and the familiar 'on' vocal. It's not hard to understand why Tiefschwarz have been rinsing it for quite some time now as a huge afterhours groover. B Side 'Talking Days', swimming in lush deep techno elements, weaves through more melodic territory but is no less infectious."


Artist: DANIEL STEINBERG
Title: Preacherman EP
Label: FRONT ROOM (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: FRM 029EP
"Daniel Steinberg and Front Room are like annoyingly sexy couples that you end up in the next hotel room to on a company business trip. Except of course Daniel Steinberg and Front Room don't actually 'have sex'; they just literally make sweet music together. The spiciness continues with the Preacherman EP, Daniel Steinberg's fifth release on Front Room Recordings. Punctuated with the exotic and the kind of twists, bumps and energy that only Steinberg can provide, Preacherman kicks off a cacophony of funk fueled head nodding to get any party pulsating. 'You Need Love' with its in-your-face vocal, huge beat and sleazy decelerating breakdown has future classic written all over it. The long awaited Tiefschwarz remix of 'Lucky Sauce' also sees the light of day here in full effect and breathes a new layer of 'wow'over a release that is only really just beginning to simmer down from its release in June. Wonked out groover 'Who Stopped The Music' rounds proceedings off nicely on an EP that is audio proof that the stroke of his talent only gets more precise and dazzling with every release. Daniel Steinberg's releases are supported by the likes of Ricardo Villalobos, Luciano, Claude VonStroke and Richie Hawtin to name drop a few."


Artist: DANIEL STEINBERG
Title: Shut Up
Label: FRONT ROOM (GERMANY)
Format: 2LP
Price: $20.00
Catalog #: FRM 034LP
After over 15 years mastering his art of production, Daniel Steinberg steps out of the shadows to unveil his debut artist album Shut Up on Front Room -- a scathing, yet very eloquent message to the all too often meaningless noise and communication of the digital age: the uninspired, the shallow and the generic. Steinberg has always shied away from press attention, instead preferring to craft his music shrouded from ego and hype. His productions have been supported by the likes of Ricardo Villalobos, Luciano, Claude Von Stroke and Richie Hawtin, and he is very much an unsung hero of the scene. As Berlin's underground throbbed with minimal beats and stripped-down house, Steinberg seemed to reach into the concrete shadows and caverns and emerge with something shimmering with real heart and feeling. Dicing Brazilian samples with killer beats and laying on the glitch to heavy effect, this type of behavior is definitely exercised to stunning effect across the LP. The title track is an entangled backdrop of resonant percussion grooves, softly lifted and driven forwards by the hypnotic, cynical vocals and unfolding to reveal a myriad of aberrant soundscapes. Latin American-flavored "Attencion" delivers sliced and warped piano lines that build and fall with each mesmeric pass as samba rhythms and percussion stutter, cut and break away. From the killer disco grooves of "Time Is Not Forever" to the jacking house of "Gimme" or the dream-like undercurrent of "Save My Darling," Steinberg's production breathes something deeply accomplished and enormously creative across the album while retaining a definite dancefloor sensibility. A veritable chameleon of Berlin's musical landscape since he first started producing his colorful vision of house and techno back in 1994, a time when Berlin's sound was stripped back and very distinctive, Steinberg was already thriving outside this box, experimenting with exotic world samples and having fun fusing elements together to make a cohesive whole that was always greater than the sum of its parts. Before long, his productions were brought permanently to the attention of Front Room label boss Jesse Rose, a guy with a very similar ethos on the flexibility of house music and a kindred penchant for delving into samples of the past to transmogrify their best elements. Daniel's talent of drawing on vintage and tropical elements to bring soul, warmth and, sometimes the completely unexpected, to modern house was enough to persuade Jesse this guy needed to be signed -- for the long term. Shut Up is a dazzlingly unique take on modern house music, to say the least.


Artist: STEINBERG, DANIEL
Title: On The Train Remix EP
Label: FRONT ROOM (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: FRM 035EP
Following on from Daniel Steinberg's debut album Shut Up! is the On The Train remix EP, featuring three top-notch reworks of tracks from the album. The light-hearted, humorous vocals of "On The Train" make way for a thunderous minimal groove, courtesy of techno don Derrick Carter. M.in brings out a darker, more twisted side of Steinberg's locomotive sounds on the B-side rework of the same tune. The remixes are accompanied by a dub version of "Atencion."
