Curle Records is back, and they bring this re-release of Walt J's classic Reborn, a real classic dance floor shaker. Originally released on Dow Records in 1997, Curle decides to take a second look at Walt J's techno vibe and include a DJ QU remix. The original keeps its quick tempo and fierce percussion, matched only by the repetitive vocal sample. DJ QU steps up and brings deepness to the mood, but keeps a nice complete rhythm to the track to maintain its quick tempo feel. Reborn 2 is the second track off of Walt J's original Reborn release, also keeping its same feel with a modern, beefier sound.
Standard re-release, but the music speaks for itself. Curle delivers once again.
Migrashun Presents: Raw Hedroom – Seed 014 Promo Mix Migrashun is proud to release SEED 014. Raw Hedroom is the musical alias of Gareth Williams. Having immersed himself in electronic music and culture for more than ten years, Gareth has worn several hats in the electronic music industry. Right now, he produces techno for Cologne's Trapez label, builds custom performance systems for Richie Hawtin's Plastikman Live tour and steers the ship at Line - this man-machine has a thirst for challenges and won't let something as mundane as time hold him back. Artistically, Gareth is fascinated by the interface between music art and technology. In fact, he sees no real distinction. Music drives technology, which in turn drives the music itself. Being part of a team building their own technology really allows him to explore this intersection closer than most. The resulting sound is innovative, but always in touch with the dance floor. His preferred process of jamming live during the production process captures the human error, groove and happy accidents which are all too often missing from much of today's electronic music. We that you enjoy Gareth’s seamless addition to the SEED podcast series. Migrashun Presents: Raw Hedroom – Seed 014 (Right Click Save As) THE SEED SERIES IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD ON iTUNES!

Steven Ford shows off his groovy minimalist style with a special live set for the RA podcast.
The journey from speed metal drummer to minimal techno producer isn't exactly a common one, but it's exactly the music path that a certain Steven Ford has forged over the past 20 years. After leaving his Voice Of Reason bandmates back in Texas and making a move out west to Seattle, Ford became increasingly interested in computer-based music and electronic minimalism, steadily learning the tools that have made him such an accomplished producer.
His early years in the electronic music scene saw him split his output between two different monikers. While his now defunct Bobby Karate pseudonym explored Ford's more abstract side, his more dance floor-focused work came out under the Bruno Pronsato name, and was promptly picked up by respected labels as Musique Risquee, Philpot and Orac. A move to Berlin opened up yet more opportunities for Ford, leading to collaborations with both Sammy Dee and Daze Maxim—the former as Half Hawaii and the latter as The Others—and a more suitable hub to take his live show around Europe and beyond.
The last couple of years have seen Ford start up his thesongsays record label, which debuted with his deftly executed 39-minute Nico-sampling composition, "The Make Up The Break Up." RA's Peter Chambers saw fit to give both that 12-inch and also his sophomore album, Why Can't We Be Like Us, rare perfectscores upon their release, and with a new album on the way, fans won't have to wait too long to hear more of Ford's liquid percussion and mindbending sound design.
The Mainz based vinyl outfit, Klamauk, is back with their 3rd release, another perfectly matched Various Artist lineup. If you aren't familiar with Klamauk 001 and 002, they come with hand painted original artwork on the sleeve. 003 is no exception, and should be available in September of 2010.

Track 1 starts with a light, stabby disco-esque house track by Frivolous. With spacey chords and a string section to keep the dancefloor alive, the rhythm is very much alive in this track.
Track 2 is a more toned and rigged house look, with a classic rhythm section underneath wonky horns and an inaudible (to this American) French voice-over. Towards the middle of the track, a soft lead comes in to give the listener a lighter feel to the music.
Track 3 is another great tune from Klamauk head, Tilman. With a calm rhythm section and wacky sounds, it's undeniable that this has the Mainz producer's signature sound engraved. A nice rolling, shaped synth leads the charge through this track and finishes through the end.
The last track on the release is a deeper venture, keeping the same mood as all the tracks before it, though. With more bleepy goodness that keeps the Klamauk label fresh and interesting, Leif brings with him a tight minimal groove filled with lush drum beats and soft chords.
