Booka Shade are Berlin-based duo Walter Merziger and Arno Kammermeier, and have emerged as one of the most pioneering electronic music acts of the past two decades. Booka Shade return with their new album ‘Eve’ released through Armada Music December 13th, preceded by first single ‘Love Inc’, released on December 9th.

For their fifth studio album Booka Shade wanted to tell a new story, a story which represented a new beginning for them after they had almost split up during the first half of the production. In order to create something exciting they needed to be somewhere exciting and in search of inspiration headed to the UK home of electronic music, Manchester, to record at the acclaimed Eve studios, a residential vintage recording studio. This is where they found themselves together again, where the music came to life and why the album is named after the studio.

“We recorded an electronic album in a traditional way and it made us feel like a band again, it was like going back to the beginning. ”

The 12 track album includes special guests Fritz Helder (Azari & III), Fritz Kalkbrenner, and Groove Armada’s Andy Cato on trombone. Artwork was conceived and designed by La Boca to provide a rich and vivid visual accompaniment to ‘Eve’.

Booka Shade singles have historically been both underground sensations and club hits (such as ‘Mandarine Girl’ and ‘Body Language’) and new single ‘Love Inc’ looks set to follow in those footsteps. ‘Love Inc’ is infused with pure club sound, paying a contemporary homage to Chicago’s former king of house, Lil Louis, whose 1992 hit ‘Club Lonely’ serves as the track’s sample. Friend and art director Thomas Hayo was brought on board to direct the song’s music video in the vein of their last collaboration on “Sweet Lies”. Details to be announced.

Remixes come from artists including: Hot Since 82, Butch, Emperor Machine and ABBY.

With Adventure Tale, Amber Blue Recordings welcomes an exciting new addition from Finland to catalogue number 164. His debut track ‘Kannada’ delivers modern melodic techno in an absolutely contemporary form: energetic, emotional and with a sound design that immediately catches the ear.

Finely crafted melodies, driving drums and a clear, powerful production make ‘Kannada’ a track that unfolds its full effect both in the club and on headphones. Adventure Tale impressively demonstrates that he has a feel for depth, dynamics and atmosphere – and fits perfectly into the Amber cosmos.

A great debut and certainly not the last.
Welcome to the Amber family, Adventure Tale!

Great Stuff proudly presents volume nine of it’s “To The Underground” series. The series features solely exclusive tracks. Hand picked with only the dance floor in mind. Tracks that will work crowds and elevate dj sets. 

To The Underground Vol.9 starts off with Alex Stein & K.A.L.I.L.’s “Pipe Dream“. A finely structured techno blockbuster! It features otherworldly bass frequencies, which were created to mesmerize. The morphing groove will bring your dancefloor into a hypnotic state.

Up next is Dialekt & JJ Mullor’s jacking “Disco Down”. This peak time beast consists of the perfect club night ingredients: arpeggiated pads, a howling bassline and a rocking groove.  

Matt & Kendo stir things up with their huge trade mark sound. Supernatural pads, delayed percussion effects and a rumbling, chunky tech-house groove are the solid foundation for “That Sound”.

The specific hallmark of Mr. Lekka’s “She Loves Summer” is its thick, straight forward groove and enormous bassline that supports the engaging vocal snippets and effect sounds in the most stylish way. 

Elmar Strathe’s remix of the recently released “Carpenter” track by Lissat & Voltaxx is a dark, moody excursion into the depths of cutting edge techno! Crisp hats and a rolling, gut wrenching bassline provide the energy while effect drenched drone sounds drill themselves into your subconsciousness.

The punctuated melody & shuffled groove glide a long a tight knit net of percussion sounds, while the bumpy kick brings the right amount of fun. Maris & Elio Riso’s “Bolingas” is a dancefloor sure shot!  

Juanito is closing off this delicious stockpile of the finest electronic music. His “Doble Zeta” track is all about the distinctive and booming classic house groove. Gated synth lines pilot the way through effect-soaked atmospheric fields and intense builds.

Danito & Athina - Poseidon

Marking a milestone for their fledgling label, Adana Twins present the very first Various Artists compilation to be released on TAU. ‘Spektrum’ comprises eight fresh cuts from a diverse lineup of artists representing the Twins’ community of friends and musical acquaintances. In keeping with TAU’s ethos there are lesser-known talents side by side with more established exponents of the underground.

The VA kicks off with the Adana Twins themselves, delivering the melodrama on a cut named ‘Jumanji’. The rhythm is simple yet deadly, with a juddering low end and spinetingling synth lines. The tension builds gently, until we reach a crescendo towards the end of the track. Innellea is next with ‘The Things We’ve Accomplished Together’, a dark cut underpinned by a dour atmosphere. The main riff feels familiar as it increases the pressure, rousing you into a state of ecstatic energy. Ede & John Falke take us into dark wave territory with their moody cut, which feels as though it’s come straight from eighties synth heaven. Next we take a trip into the humid canopies of the jungle with Santiago Garcia & Speaking In Tongues. ‘Lost In A Jungle’ features a myriad of exotic sounds, tribal rhythms and percussion straight out of the Amazon. Enchanting mysti- cism and wild allure make this one a very special cut indeed.

Track 5 is Mulya & Sobek’s ‘Upfront Venture’, a simmering journey into the depths. A modulated low end grumbles and snarls, increasing the tension alongside a dainty riff. Steadily building into a breakdown that will send shivers down your spine. This is followed by more tribal-inspired music, this time from Nenor & Eyal Rob who use indigenous vocal clips and organic-sounding drums to create a mesmerising composition on ‘Odehya Nbiya’. Luis Junior plays with our minds on ‘Tuning Instruments’, a playful motif forms the main body of this cut, which is twisted and warped during an epic breakdown, before we’re treated to a soothing bassline. Last up, German don Daniel Bortz takes us ‘Down To The Moon’ with an exquisite roller full of dreamy atmospherics and laid back vibes. A fitting finale to an excellent collection of music.
