2019

for the love  of music

The latest hot platter on Al Zanders A to Z label!

This one's a split EP with newcomer JVXTA - who's proven himself through his EPs on Homage and Distant Hawaii - & Al Zanders under his resurfaced AZ alias. They were brought together by a love of classic Chicago house.

JVXTA co-runs the Hardmatter imprint in Berlin and has released music from himself and Detroit legend Javonntte amongst others. All the tracks are love themed, hence the title 'Love Sensations'

Limited run on these - don't snooze!

Buy the wax!!!

A few people recently have asked me to do more mixes or set up a podcast. So I'v decided to start my own mix series called 'Consequence Of Society' (also the name of my new release series with Noir Music). These mixes will be free to download from here and will include tracks I'm enjoying at that moment in time along with some of my own productions. You may or may not hear me play some of these tracks out in my live sets.
Hope you all enjoy, Cristoph x

And now for the one you’ve all been waiting for... @DamianLazarus’ 4-hour sunrise set from Desert Hearts Festival 2018. 

To be honest, we've been waiting to put this set out ever since we first conceptualized the idea of D Laz playing DH. Damian has been one of our favorite DJs and a constant inspiration for us over the years. He’s the only person we’ve given a 4 hour set to and he turned it into something that went down in history alongside the best sets we’ve ever seen at the fest. 

If you’re like us and can’t get enough of Damian, we decided to bring him back to play Haunted Hearts 2018 in Los Angeles (TICKETS: bit.ly/HauntedHeartsLA).

House, Techno, & Love… We Are All Desert Hearts.

Our new Blitz LIVE series is about to take off! As the name suggests, we’ll publish some live recordings from the club from now on. For he first edition, we’ve selected the unforgettable All Night Long by our good friend Seth Troxler from September 7th. As expected from Seth, the mix is a wonderful up and down in between House, Techno and Disco. All of this mixed with his unique way of taking risks and experimenting. It just can’t get any better. Check out the mix from now on on our SoundCloud. Just the best goosebumps and memories coming up when listening to the recording. We just can’t wait for Seth’s next time!

Unsere Blitz LIVE Serie fährt an die Startlinie! In deren Rahmen veröffentlichen wir, wie zu erahnen ist, Live-Recordings, die während unserer Blitznächte aufgenommen wurden. Für die erste Ausgabe, ließen wir es uns nicht nehmen, das unvergessene All Night Long unseres guten Freund des Hauses, Seth Troxler, vom 07. September diesen Jahres zu veröffentlichen. Seth’s zweiteiliges Resultat mit einem bunten Potpourri aus House, Techno, Disco und seiner einzigartigen Experimentierfreude ist aber sofort auf unserer SoundCloud-Page zu finden. Wir schwelgen in Erinnerungen und blicken schon gespannt auf das nächste Mal!

1: ALO - Return
2: Christopher Lawrenz - ASIN
3: Eats Everything - Rollathonic
4: Housemeister - Am Puls Der Zeit
5: JNO - Generation ID
6: Klangkuenstler - Continuum
7: Lerio Corrado - Parabellum
8: Martin Eyerer - Mineral
9: Niereich & Linus Quick - The Secret
10: Paride Saraceni - Long Awaited Dawn
11: Ryan McKay - Acid Control

We’re back again with another SUM package, and this release sees us stepping into our third year of churning out cuts from a variety of names spanning fresh faces to established artists.
SUM 5 kicks off with newcomer ALO’s fierce ‘Return’ where chaos crescendos over an unrelenting bass line before Christopher Lawrenz delivers a wild groover with enough energy to blow the roof off any club with his cut ‘ASIN’. Heavy hitter and man of the hour Eats Everything steps up next and provides another rave anthem on ‘Rollathonic’ before Housemeister’s ‘Am Puls der Zeit’ takes matters into deeper and more dramatic territories with shimmering synthesizers and lush harmonics which couldn’t be farther from JNO’s ‘Generation ID’ which focuses on heavy, fast paced percussion to take the club to the next level. Diving into more sinister territories, Klangkuenstler’s ‘Continuum’ is an intense ride not for the faint of heart whereas Lerio Corrado’s ‘Parabellum’ keeps the tough edge but balances it expertly with just the right amount of debauchery. Martin Eyerer follows suit with a chaotic, yet insanely euphoric blinder with ‘Mineral’ before Niereich & Linus Quick deliver a massive tune with the perfect Rave throwback vibe on ‘Secrets’. Next to last is the gorgeous, energetic and instantly unforgettable ‘Long Awaited Dawn’ from Paride Saraceni before Ryan McKay’s pulse pounding ‘Acid Control’ wraps up SUM 5 with a bang.

Maceo Plex remix of Dino Lenny "Guilty Officer" out now on Ellum Audio.

Dino Lenny - Guilty Officer - Maceo Plex Remix

Xeonz hooks up with Contaktz to bring a hectic heater trawling with old school garage influence. The pair get things started with a cheeky plucked arpeggio faded in over a 4x4 garage beat and vocal chops before a smooth reese bass and a sophisticated vocal sample takes the spotlight in the breakdown before erupting into an assortment of absolute anarchy as warped bass sounds and attacked stabs writhe around each other in spectacular fashion.

She's an active DJ in and around Brooklyn and Manhattan, so if you like what you hear, peep her socials and pull up to one of her many gigs.
