Title:
Get Physical-- 2nd Anniversary Label Compilation
Label:
GET PHYSICAL MUSIC (GERMANY)
Format:
CD
Price:
$11.00
Catalog #:
GPM 001CD
Originally released in 2004, Berlin-based label Get Physical celebrated their second anniversary with its first-ever compilation of hits, remixes, as well as a preview of three new artists. The 80-minute turntable mix by
Patrick Bodmer
and
Philipp Jung
aka
M.A.N.D.Y.
contains 16 original versions of the Get Physical artists M.A.N.D.Y.,
DJ T.
,
Chelonis R. Jones
,
Sunsetpeople
,
Booka Shade
,
Voltique
,
Tomas Barfod
and
Lopazz
, including three interpretations of
Tiefschwarz
,
Captain Comatose
and
Justus Köhncke
. Also gracing this mix is
Stefan Eichinger
aka
Lopazz
, with his fantastic,
Barry White
-esque "Take Me Home," which offers further proof of the amazing breadth and compatibility of his inimitably natural analogue sound. Thomas Barfod's track "'The Box" is an amazingly beautiful retro contribution to the compilation, revealing a relatively new side to his music, slotting perfectly into the Get Physical sound coordinates of house, electro and pop. This is the comp that launched a peaked interest in this label -- this is the comp that made everyone Get Physical.

Booka Shade
are
Walter Merziger
and
Arno Kammermeier
, production masterminds behind the first 13 Get Physical releases. This is their debut full-length, originally released in 2004. On
Memento
, the two producers observe a healthy balance between pop appeal and experimentation, concocting an unusual blend of modern 4/4 sketches and timeless titles. These tracks take us on a journey through time and space, where, in the sprawling universe, elements from different eras and categories seem to meet and merge almost by chance. "Vertigo," based on an obvious disco groove, is swathed in a breathtakingly beautiful, cinematic soundscape of unparalleled drama. "Double Identity" and "Memento" pursue similar paths. Tricky, minimalist rhythm structures support the dense atmospheres suffused by short glimpses of
Basic Channel
and Detroit references as well as mysterious vocal slivers. Other passages are reminiscent of ravers attacking a
Missy Elliot
track with a vacuum cleaner, homages to '80s synth pop bands clashing with planet funk, broad psychedelic rock or even minimal trance, always pervaded by fragments ostensibly lifted from fast and furious movie soundtracks. All of this is held together by intense aesthetics, turning
Memento
into an intoxicating, emotional play of the senses.
Memento
hits with velvet-coated sucker punches, its prowling, understated menace creates evocative moods mapping out a fresh alternative for electronic music.

GPM 004CD
This is Frankfurt/Berlin-based
Thomas Koch
's debut full-length release. DJ T., whose name first graced a record sleeve in 2000 as part of a collaboration with
Steve Bug
, is founder of the deephouse label Get Physical. On
Boogie Playground
, his passion-drenched, 13-track album, DJ T. allows his inimitable signature style to explore the scope of house. Drawing on elements and vibes from disco, funk and electro but also Chicago, Detroit, Italo and acid house, T. irreverently resurrects the spirit of his formative musical experiences between 1978-1992. Without pandering to prevalent aesthetics, DJ T. has carved his very own niche in the retro universe, but translates this into a framework of contemporary arrangements and sound design. The result: a huge range of different concepts and concoctions. On "Funk On You," Koch swirls funk, disco and Italo fragments into a very organic-sounding whole. "Dark Room" is a moody, minimal/new wave hybrid constantly in danger of drifting towards chaos. "Calling" rolls along on heavy sub bass sequences layered with hypnotic shreds of melody and vocals, while "Neon" balances forceful Chicago and playful neo-acid elements. Finally, "Rave D'amour," is a chopped-up delight with extremely crude liasons of broken beats to form a perfect old school rave chansonette.

JONES, CHELONIS R.
Title:
Dislocated Genius
Label:
GET PHYSICAL MUSIC (GERMANY)
Format:
CD
Price:
$11.00
Catalog #:
GPM 005CD
Originally released in 2005. Chelonis R. Jones was born in New York, but has lived in Europe for the past decade, making his mark as a songwriter, painter and poet. This is his first debut full-length for the Get Physical label. On
Dislocated Genius
, Jones explores the field of dark, provocative dance music. Highlights include "Blackface," which explores the myth of the womanizing stud cliché of Rn'B and disco music with deep sub bass and twisted FX that growl ever stronger under Jones' riling words and audience applause. The strange and infectious "Middle Finger Music" comes on strong with psychotic noise before pulling back to a controlled beat bristling with glitches and evolving into a strong rumbling bassline and uplifting melody. Within the tuneful 4/4 of "Vultures" are understated beats, sweeping FX and undulating melodies. Stand-out track "Mythologies" is ripe with textured soundscapes, forceful beats and unfussy production. "Deer In The Headlights" is arresting from the opening chords -- deep sub-bass and synth mash with grumbling soundbeds, sci-fi clicks and spacey synths, which underpin Chelonis' haunting vocals. Hugely driven to create, his unique sound and powerful voice is unmistakeable in a rapidly homogenized world.

GPM 007CD
2006 release. Celebrating Get Physical's fourth year in business, this compilation showcases some of the label's best-known releases of the past year and also gives a hint of what we can expect in 2006. On this fourth anniversary compilation, the label's best-known artists,
DJ T.
,
Chelonis Jones
,
M.A.N.D.Y
, and
Booka Shade
all rub shoulders with upcoming producers, but the goal remains the same: to put out electronic club music that hits you in the heart, head and feet. It's another full body workout, expect to get sweaty! Mixed by
Philipp Jung
and
Patrick Bodmer
, aka M.A.N.D.Y, the compilation isn't about big tunes or big names. Instead, it reflects the long A&R process Get Physical, spearheaded by DJ T., put in to find new talent.
Jonathan
from Belgium leads the charge of upcoming producers with "Yellowstone," which wields shimmering, euphoric synths and a niggling guitar riff over a live funk bassline and "Learning By Mistakes," which features on his recently released debut EP for the label, "The Learnings," and is based on loose, glitchy beats and a recycled trance buildup. Looking to the future and providing a reminder of their recent achievements,
Get Physical Vol II
shows that after four years, this label still knows how to keep it physical.

2007 release. Get Physical co-founder DJ T aka
Thomas Koch
follows
M.A.N.D.Y
's first
Body Language
mix from last year with his first-ever mix compilation. Koch looks to Detroit for the warm, weeping bass and mournful vocal of the mix opener,
The Other People Place
's "Let Me Be Me" by the deceased former
Drexciya
member
James Stinson
and the euphoric
Carl Craig
remix of "Falling Up" by
Theo Parrish
midway through. In contrast, the finale is the smart acid rework by
Isoleé
of
Villalobos
' melancholic "What You Say..." and a warm, snaking remix by
DJ Koze
of
Heiko Voss
' pop techno standard, "I Think About You" combine for an exquisite, emotional climax. In between this are gems and future classics: 1998's haunting vocal house of
DJ Naughty
's remix of
Stella
's "Extralife," as well as the dirty, bleepy Chicago groove of
ASP
's "Reality Check." Also find the moody bass and Italo chords of
Tensnake
's "Around The House," and the subtle trance builds of
Gui Boratto
's "Arquipelago" on Kompakt. The German DJ's production skills are also in the spotlight with the inclusion of the evocative "Marsha" by
Einzelkind
, and so on. Of course, this ability to pick and mix the right tunes would mean nothing without presentation and context: sure,
Body Language Vol. 2
is indicative of pretty much everything that is great about European electronic music -- check the fusion of stripped back minimalism and futuristic soulful vocal on the
Barlz E Syntho
remix of
Spektrum
's "Horny Pony" and the chiming, squelchy "Sweet Cow" by
Chicken Lips
-- but it never delves into deep self-indulgence. It's possible to enjoy this mix on a hot beach as much as you could in a sweaty basement club and that says it all about
Body Language 2
: it's music for the head, heart and feet for house music lovers all over the world.

2006 release. Fuckpony is the latest project by US producer in Berlin
Jay Haze
and his Swiss collaborator,
Samim
.
Children of Love
takes a trip through the roots of dance music, so hold on tight! Haze and Samim are best known for their stripped back, quirky techno on Haze's Contexterrior and Tuning Spork labels, but for Fuckpony, they wanted to try something different.
Children Of Love
is an album inspired by dance music's evocative, emotional past. Detroit techno snuggles up to deep house textures, Chicago claps and drums get cozy with raw acid lines, mournful synths accompany soulful, tripped out vocals. "
We're in an era of robots and machines, so we're trying to step back in time and go back to dance music's roots,
" Jay explains. The album is richly musical, strangely familiar and undoubtedly infectious -- "Ride The Pony" and "Cellphone Hit" are tuneful tracks, boasting the futuristic techno brushstrokes that one would expect from Haze and Samim. "
We have our ears on the future, but the real inspiration is old house music,
" Jay says, while Samim sees the release as a break from the norm. "
It's like a retreat, a holiday from making minimal music. Parts of it are minimal, but Fuckpony allows us to show something different of ourselves.
"
Children Of Love
isn't solely about house music: listen to the nagging bass on the deep-fried acid of "Freaky Story Of Earth" and it's clear that
Funkedelic
's psychedelic groove left a big impression on the pair. Featuring vocals from
Big Bully
,
Shaniqua
and
Lil Dirrty Ghetto Bastard
, Jay and Samim believe that they have created something that is not just "tracky and for the dancefloor," but a lasting body of work that their friends and family can appreciate. Now is the time to share the love with Fuckpony.

Title:
Monza Club Ibiza Compilation Vol. 1
Label:
GET PHYSICAL MUSIC (GERMANY)
Format:
CD
Price:
$11.00
Catalog #:
GPM 010CD
This is London-based Heidi's debut mix CD,
Monza Club Ibiza Compilation Vol. 1
, on Get Physical. After setting up shop at the Phonica record store in central London three years ago, Heidi's profile as a DJ grew, leading to gigs in Berlin and appearances at the Monza Club in Frankfurt, run at the time by
DJ T.
and
Patrik Dechent
from
Sunsetpeople
, another Get Physical artist. When Patrik moved to Ibiza, he set up the Monza night there, where Heidi also played. Informed by the same open-mindedness that persuaded her to check out a rave in Windsor ten years ago and which changed her life, Heidi's mix harkens the exciting freshness of the Ibiza climate, avoiding repetition and never staying in one place for too long. "
It's representative of a three-hour set that I would play -- but that also depends on where you're playing and who you DJ with. I wanted to showcase all the different styles of music I'm into.
" she claims.
Monza
certainly flows through a range of house and techno styles and emotions. From
Dennis Ferrer
and
Kerri Chandler
's breathy, sensuous house to the ominous bass of
Martin Landsky
's "1,000 Miles," the reduced funk of
John Tejada
's "Forced Fiction," Heidi and
Riton
's jacking "Vejer" -- recorded especially for the mix -- and
Erol Alkan
's upbeat, summery remix of
Hot Chip
, Heidi isn't afraid to diversify. She doesn't restrict herself to brand new tunes either, and the mix starts with
Carl Craig
's seminal 1990s version of
Maurizio
's "Domina." Disinterested in fads and fashions, Heidi's biggest hope for
Monza
is that, like the "Domina" remix, in a disposable world, it becomes timeless. "
That would be my biggest aspiration for the mix, that in five years' time, someone will pick it up, listen to it and it'll still sound fresh,
" she says. "
I still listen to old
Andrew Weatherall
mixes and they're fresh, and I hope the same thing happens with
Monza." Other artists include:

The B-side, "Phantomas" fights in contrast to the previous, with a nearly seven-minute real-sound drums/punk attitude/disco sequence to unhinge even the firmest clubfloor panels.

GPM 016EP
Originally released in June, 2004. "After two collaborations with M.A.N.D.Y., GPM 016 features the first independent project by Patrick Dechent aka Sunsetpeople. While 'Mifune' continues Sunsetpeople's characteristic mix of dub and deepness, it is also more demanding and ecstatic. Patrik's production partner Booka Shade adds crisp, electronic elements, distinct chords and dominant vocoder vocals which make this techno/house hybrid work in both camps, energetically bridging the gap between prime time and after hour. For the B-side, Martin Landsky, German keeper of the old school Chicago house Grail, contributes a mix based on snippets of the original's essential elements -- its clear-cut killer groove nails the crowd to the floor without losing the gist of the original's dubby character. Jack your body!"

Matthew Dear
's eagerly-awaited
Body Language
mix is a very personal selection, and one which reflects his own artistic interests, concerns and strategies. In a sense, he approached the project literally, seeking to explore aspects of both the "body" and "language" in his selection and ultimately achieve a marriage of the two. Matthew's celebrated 2007 album
Asa Breed
was remarkable in its organic synthesis of vocals and house grooves, and that same synthesis lies at the heart of this mix; if you listen carefully, you'll hear that every track featured on
Body Language 7
employs a vocal or "language" of some kind -- some explicit and pronounced, some broken down or indistinct. Meanwhile, the mix's rhythmic default is one of sinewy, dancefloor-aimed 4x4 grooves, "body" music at its purest and most devastating. Artists:

is upon us. While
Boogie Playground
was an exploration of T.'s '70s and '80s influences, a melting-pot of styles that touched upon electro, disco, Italo and funk,
The Inner Jukebox
draws inspiration from the '90s and is a more focused adventure -- it's T.'s vision of house music as it should be. So much "house" is really just glorified minimal techno, vibe-killing in its meticulousness; by contrast, the tracks which comprise
The Inner Jukebox
are bold, vivid, expressive. They're cerebral and carefully crafted, yes, but more importantly they have a bounce and sexiness to them. T. has always sought to make proper, no-nonsense dance music with real groove at its heart -- and
The Inner Jukebox
finds him fully realizing that ambition.

7th Anniversary Compilation
is centered around material from the label's last three years, and features contributions not only from stalwarts like
DJ T.

Patrice Bäumel
's "Roar" and Booka Shade's "Duke" among them -- alongside lesser-known bombs, like
Matthew Dear
's "Free To Ask," a track recorded specially for his 2008

is the follow-up album to the critically acclaimed self titled Raz Ohara & the Odd Orchestra CD that is considered being one of the album highlights in 2008. It's a warm, organic collection of avant-garde, open-hearted pop music which positively teems with life, a forest of pleasures and possibilities which you'll want to lose yourself in indefinitely.
II
is certainly less melancholic than its predecessor -- it's imbued with good feeling, energized by the rhythms and cadences of summer and the great outdoors -- but it's not euphoric, there is an underlying note of caution, of trepidation. This emotional mix is what makes the record so powerful, especially when allied to a similarly ambiguous musical mix that imperceptibly melds folk, classic pop, electro-acoustic experimentation and modernist electronics. 10 beautiful songs plus a special download (code included in the artwork) of the single
Miracle
make this album a perfect journey through the winter days.

DJ Hell
bestrides modern techno like a colossus: he's more than just a producer or a DJ, he's an icon, too big and individual a personality to be accommodated by any one micro-scene. Hell doesn't just represent a type of music, he represents a whole lifestyle, aesthetic and worldview -- and
Body Language Vol. 9
is perhaps the closest any disc has yet come to capturing that totality. Hell's entry in Get Physical's ongoing
Body Language
mix series arrives in a period of considerable artistic achievement. He brings an ambition and breadth of vision to
Body Language Vol. 9
, culling tracks from different eras and scenes and focusing them into a veritable laser-beam of pure passion and flair. There are plenty of recent productions amid the selection --
Dixon
,
Will Saul
,
Christian Prommer
all feature -- but the goal here isn't merely to take the temperature of the times; it's to create a rich, entertaining and future-proof listening experience. And so we are given a considerable insight into Hell's roots: from
Klaus Schulze
's kosmische epic "Stargazer" to
David Sylvian
's "Forbidden Colours" (taken from the
Merry Christmas, Mr Lawrence
soundtrack), via majestic
Depeche Mode
instrumental "Esque" and -- in one of the album's several flashes of wry humour -- the
Balanescu Quartet
's incredible chamber-music rendition of
Kraftwerk
's "The Robots." Hell also digs deep into his collection and pulls out some of the most righteous, jacking dancefloor material you'll ever hear.
Baby Ford & Eon
's UK techno classic "Dead Eye,"
King Britt
's string-heavy, funked up remix of
Josh One
,
DJ Assassin
's skipping house jam "Face In The Crowd" (Intellidread Mix), the acid-fried disco of
Daniel Wang
's "Warped" -- this mix is "edutainment" in the truest and best sense, and a pupil-dilating reminder of why Hell is one of the world's most enduringly popular techno DJs. This is a journey into the heart of Hell -- and it's pure heaven.

This is the fourth album by
Nôze
, the Parisian duo of
Nicolas Sfintescu
(aka
DJ Freak
), founding member of Circus Company and
Ezechiel Pailhès
. Since the release of their 2008 album
Songs On The Rocks
, the duo have developed like good wine, full of maturity and sophistication, asserting their character in a renewed fashion, with more depth and subtlety. Make no mistake about it, Nôze are still Nôze, they have simply swapped their colorful electro-cosmopolite entertainer costumes for the no less flattering attire of velvety pleasures and joyous melancholy and a re-emergence of their first love -- improvised music. The fellas have quieted down a bit after two crazy years touring the world, and deliver a brilliant, multi-headed album.
Dring
was born from multiple encounters and collaborations, disrupting the duet's recording routine: if the "Nôze sound" is resolutely turned towards instrumental music, this time the pair gave their friends complete freedom, as title after title, recording session after recording session, Nôze gradually became more of a "real" group with shifting and porous boundaries -- a spontaneous process, which progressively became this album's backbone, also an opportunity to express their gratitude to the worlds of jazz and improvised music and highlight the talent of their faithful collaborators:
Thibaut Frisoni
(guitar),
Alexandre Authelain
(sax and clarinet),
Matthias Mahler
(trombone) and
Emiliano Turi
(drums). Nôze now travels along the edge of house music, playfully making light of its codes, and more broadly making light of the codes of all festive musical genres that cross their path (cumbia, klezmer, reggae) and especially their own musical vocabulary: reviving the jazzy and experimental ardor of the early days, now sustained by the demands and maturity of accomplished musicians and performers that made their success and fame. With this album, Nôze offer themselves at their very quintessential best, where technical and musical virtuosity constantly share the limelight with the light-hearted but profound expression of joy, celebration and melancholy.

Philipp Jung

Matthew Dear
team up as

Lee Curtiss
' "The Disco Dub," and the early Chicago house stylings of
Delete
's Kindisch release "Lunchbox."
Andy Cato
's "Bassline Track" is a shot in the arm and a raise of the stakes, as the
Groove Armada
gentle giant shrugs off the shackles of calm, chilled grooves for mutated bass lanes and a full frontal sonic kick, which lays the spiky groundwork for the tweaked and reverbed proto-electro of Detroit upstart
Kris Wadsworth
with "It's Time." Schumacher's own loopy cut-up jam "You Got Me" slips sideways into "Make Me," where
Emerson Todd
and
Tim Green
reveal a secret breakdown of free jazz, before its heavy drums descend into the deep tribal stomp of
Steed Lord
's "You". Thomas' melodic electro house edit of his own
Elektrochemie
project blooms in rich, full color, before the metallic tones of
Booka Shade
's "In Space Remix" of their own "Teenage Spaceman" reveals the very best. Shifting effortlessly from DJ to selector, Thomas then proceeds to cherry pick the best Get Physical moments for the morning after the night before. An emotional piano chord introduces
Nôze
in quirk balladeer mode, with a pop version of "Kitchen," before the heartfelt, slowed-down electronic pop of Damian Lazarus' "After Rave Delight." Raz Ohara and the Odd Orchestra deliver stripped back soul that slowly builds into static and lush orchestration, while a meeting of mind sees DJ T.'s "Gorilla Hug" remixed by wunderkind
Nicolas Jaar
, for a treatment that gives a nod to vintage electro-funk grooves. Nôze make another cameo appearance with a rework from
Matthias Kaden
, which progresses from beat-boxed acapellas to Kaden's trademark minimalistic latin house, while Lopazz' affecting 2007 synth-laden track "Wasted Days" both proves yet again why he's a treasured member of the GP family, and closes out the mix.

Audiofly

Luca Saporito
and
Anthony Middleton
share nine years of production history, but because of the sheer volume and sonic breadth of the anthems, EPs and sought-after remixes that they have amassed throughout their illustrious career -- Audiofly are true veterans of the scene.
Follow My Liebe
is the long-awaited long-form passion project that references all shades of the Audiofly spectrum: from their dirty, jacking techno to the sleeker, dubbier, minimal tones of
Audiofly X
and deeper still to the sound design and ambient atmospheres that the duo have never before revealed.
Follow My Liebe
spans electro-pop, techno, dub and downtempo, but is held together by the deep indigo tones, twilight atmospheres and early morning stillness that are present throughout. The title track takes its cues from sun-drenched Balearic vibes, with space aplenty for sea breezes, languid sunsets and hummed choruses. Over its pulsing guitar, shadows and whispers elongate and disappear into whisps of cosmic trails. "Kiss And Tell" raises the tempo to slow house, but still steps lightly with rhythmic sweeps, delicate ride cymbals, and a faraway duet of hand and voice, before taking a sharp turn left, then down into fractured rhythms, distorted sounds and quickening bass tones. "Fela" finds its rhythmic grounding in the organic fusion of chattering voices and the peaks and troughs of Rhodes, for an Afrobeat-infused slow-house burner, while the late-night tech house of "Black Cat" is fuelled by bass pulses that chug rhythmically, and the intricate synth play that weaves around them. "My Happy Place" and "Talktome" and are primed and ready for the dancefloor, rolling heavy and deep, the latter with snaky, shimmering percussion, distant drums, and a rolling, infectious beat that rewrites itself, landing gently in a bed of pealing, humming melodies. "Lo-Rise" is a workout of pure tribal hypnotism, with solid shafts of dub reverb that shift in and out and combine with vocal snips and chirping, piping noises for a solid quirk-house number. Vocals are an integral part of
Follow My Liebe
's character, and provide its most affecting, personal moments. "6 Degrees" reveals melancholic electronic pop at its most devastating, and the lulling reggae vocals of
Shaun Parkes
enhance the downtempo dub and ambient tones of "Sense And Vision," which is textured by subtle percussion and live instrumentation; while "Puddle Of Diamonds" harnesses the gentle power of a husky, jazz-toned femme that lingers in the memory long after the slinky sighs, deep house rhythm and floating percussive elements have finished. Audiofly have followed their hearts and their melodic instincts for
Follow My Liebe
, crafting an assured debut that makes a seamless transition from DJ fare to home-listening and back again, with expert ease. Also featuring

Jaw

James Teej
,
Khan
,
Nick Maurer
and
Cari Golden
.
The Pleasure Principle
immerses itself, wholly and rapturously, into electronic music's legacy of authentic soul, helping to usher in a new renaissance of groove-heavy deepness, at a time when clinical club sounds are at their least inspired. Traces of T.'s production finesse can be found in the most soothing washes of ambient tones, the soaring vocal treatments, the murkiest late-night moments, and at the center of
The Pleasure Principle
's delicate melodies. "Same Plane," featuring dOP prankster Jaw and his girlfriend
Amandine
(aka
Ginger
), is a flurry of offset beats and hand claps, a rhythmic hall of mirrors that finds his deep, soulful vocals nestled at the center of stuttering staccato rhythms, woven with whispers. Nick Maurer lights up "Burning" with a twist, as he is doubled, tripled, pitched-down and distorted. "Yesterday Tomorrow" features Dave Aju's preacher man spoken-word duelling with piano stabs, combining the stomp and swagger of electro funk with an unmistakable early house framework, while "Citylife" recalls the early '80s warehouse era, and finds American vocalist Cari Golden crooning, siren-like. Jaw's second appearance "Remember The Future" is mottled with daybreak dew, and its morning rainforest sounds are illuminated by dappled shafts of sonic light, piping mid-tones and ambient, swirling organ chords. Khan adds his grizzled charm to "Leavin Me" coloring deep tech tones with a tale steeped in longing and regret, for a new take on dubby blues house.
The Pleasure Principle
is also interspersed with a number of instrumental productions. With its half-stepping beat and unique synth melody "Opera Buffa" evokes late nights and rain-slicked city streets, and shorter atmospheric instrumentals "Unconditional Love," "Nothing Comes Even Close" and "Pattern Exit Drama" variously take on low-slung cosmic disco, nostalgic slow jams, and proto-dancefloor moments in time. Whether it's experienced during one DJ T.'s many forthcoming live appearances, in a darkened club, in a quiet moment, at the beginning of the night, or the morning after it,
The Pleasure Principle
can be found at the very axis of mind and body, and musical soul.

Through deep, thrumming tech house, vocal excursions, Detroit electro, touches of disco and smatterings of downtempo, M.A.N.D.Y. demonstrate yet again why they are so in-demand on the international club and festival circuit. Starting with the thundering piano chords and jazz percussion of

's "Void 23" is a perfectly-pitched follow-up, and
Roman Flügel

Brendon Moeller

DJ Koze
's trademark eccentricity, as "Der Wallach" bumps with loose-limbed jazziness and quirky arrangements.
Patrice Bäumel

Model 500

Nicolas Jaar
's "Space Is Only Noise If You Can See." The shimmering electronica melodies of
Estroe
's "Phat" Remix of
Rocco Caine
's "Fatand 50" gleam and shine, before the track and the mix are pitched down into the suspenseful swan song,
Kollektiv Turmstrasse

Jori Hulkkonen
and
Tuomas Salmela
, get together for their Get Physical debut. Discemi combines Jori's love of deep, melodic techno and house with Tuomas' tracky, electrohouse grooves. The title track starts the EP in tough mode, powered by a prowling bassline and tight claps, with scary metallic techno rhythms. "Silver Ghost" still has a moody, mysterious feeling, but its bleepy, electronic bass is more groovy and chugs along to the sound of sweet, chiming melodies. Close your eyes and imagine the bumping funk of underground Chicago with the evocative hooks of European trance and you're close to the sound of "The Deepity Pt. 2."
