Artist:	ZIMMERMANN, JENS
Title:	Reduction, Seduction
Label:	HARTHOUSE (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	HHMA 014EP

"Zimmermann alias Jens Zimmermann aka Tyrell Corp. aka DJ Gargamel is constantly changing yet always the same: a damn good producer. Now, in 2007, after years of noise research and sound sculpting, he is re-emerging as Zimmermann which stands for 'new German minimal sound.' After three much-celebrated releases, aptly called 'Zimmermann #1,' '#2' and '#3' on Room Recordings, which were severely hyped up by Germany's house fraternity, and releases and remixes on Boxersport, K2, and HiFreaks as well as on Harthouse Mannheim, the future is looking bright for Jens. Something he is proud to share with all of those who tune into his reduced, contemporary sound. A1: 'Reduction, Seduction': the art of seducing lies in the tiny changes and the fine sound-shaping capabilities Jens displays with this slow but very potently grooving track that gets them all in the end. Subtle yet powerful. B1: 'G.L.U.X.': Talking about tricky, tiny modulations, this is where Zimmermann, at his finest, dishes up a whole armada of strangely bleeping synths, which, in stark contrast to the dark and rumbling, compelling bass, lead the head astray while the body pumps away."

Artist:	DALESSANDRO, BILLY
Title:	Soulchaser
Label:	HARTHOUSE (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	HHMA 018EP

"After having published more than 20 EPs and two full length albums, Billy Dalessandro arrived at the first league of worldwide respected producers. His third album, Into The Atom, can be seen as a milestone of the Chicago-based musician's history. He publishes a mixture of Chicago style funk and deep minimal electronic style. Here are 3 gems born out of his virtuosity you can't miss. A1: 'Soulchaser' Undercover Mix -- highly addictive and percussive, slightly forward-oriented track with great spheres. 'Great' has to be written with triple 'e' because it uses a dramatic element which pokes out of the deep and tricky basement. Playful effects and intelligent beat programming sum up to a really special atmosphere -- somewhere between -- but precise as hell!"

Artist:	BRAINCELL
Title:	Absorb
Label:	HARTHOUSE (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	HHMA 019EP

"Braincell already set a high standard at the last Harthouse V.A. by 'pneumatic(s)' work and sound. The Swedish top producer and label owner presents another labor of love -- Absorb. This is the most emotional EP you have ever heard from Cari Lekebusch -- highly addictive stuff! A1. 'Absorb:' calm and gentle percussive structure and wide atmospheric effects mixed with tiny play-arounds attracts the listener's attention. Comfortable groove-friendly shaker which is built up to a melancholic and cinematic milestone of electronic music!"

Artist:	DACHSHUND
Title:	Bon Appetit
Label:	HARTHOUSE (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	HHMA 021EP

"Today, Dachshund is one of the finest examples of Geneva's top quality minimal techno scene. He released most of his tracks on different labels such as Num Records, Platzhirsch, Mental Groove, 60sec, and many others. His releases Somehow & Water Game have been acclaimed by the whole scene. For his thrilling and creepy tracks he uses many spatial effects and therefore he creates very abstract sound buildings that are standing immovable in a well structured landscape of weird minds. A. 'Asparagus': Like it or hate it, this vegetable sticks out of the wet earth and looks around, realizing that the world sometimes isn't as beautiful as it seems. A cloudy sky signals a storm of bended and twisted melodies and then the hail of sharp percussion sequencing begins. Be careful not to be hit. B1. 'Turbo Fish': This fish is fast. The slippery animal sashays through a canalisation of dirt and mud searching for the daylight, but it won't find it. Then the panic rises, the speed increases and the claustrophobic heartbeat explodes by a hit of aggression. B2. 'Ugly Tartare': For dessert we have 'Ugly Tartare.' Spoon it and enjoy the acid burning on your tongue. But be careful not swallow. Otherwise you will reach spheres you didn't know existed."
