Ganondorf is the humanoid form of Ganon, the ultimate embodiment of evil and hatred, the nemesis of Link, and the final boss in many of the Legend of Zelda games.  Ganondorf is a formidable sorcerer and a shapeshifter. His hatred is so intense that he can survive even the total obliteration of his body and remain conscious. An ultimate bad ass.

End of Level Boss 1 Ganondorf (low res clips) OUT NOW IN ALL GOOD SHOPS!

Kid North - England (Claude Violante Remix)

"Spanning just over eight minutes, the production is essentially broken up in two separate parts—the first focusing on a deep percussion pattern and sequences of light melodies, while the tune's latter half expands into more heavenly territory, where glistening pads and high-pitched vocals are anchored by massive bass and a heavy-handed four-on-the-floor. An ambitious composition, "You" is an impressively enticing first taste of what Gidge may be capable of on the debut LP the pair is expected to drop later this year."  - Glenn Jackson, XLR8R

End Of Level Boss is a joint project from Cyclonix and Tusk celebrating the world of video game technostalgia through electronic music. End of Level Boss follows up it's successful debut Ganondorf EP, with the Scorpion EP. The EP is named after the resurrected ninja from Mortal Kombat, who is the game's greatest anti-hero, with the battle cry "vengeance will be mine". 

The Scorpion EP features tracks by Si Murray (of Deep Space Orchestra)  who delivers a bass synth monster under his Mogadishu Young Team persona, Canadian producer Robert S who drops some steppin' techno heat, label boss Cyclonix who drops a leftfield analogue beast, and new-comer Newcomer Nant Rouge who delivers an epic hypnotic synth driven journey.

Tracklisting: 
A1. Mogadishu Young Team - "Dead Wrong"
A2. Robert S - "Unknownism"
B1. Cyclonix - "1 ÷ 0"
B2. Nant Rouge - "Derivative"

The EP will be released on limited edition vinyl and is available for pre-order at Juno, Piccadilly, Red Eye and will be available in good record shops worldwide.

Release Date: 22ND APRIL 2014.

Early dj feedback:
Red Rack'em: "Strong Record. Should totally appeal to people who dig old school techno"
Cottam: "The new end of level boss is ace man. Charted already!"

It will also be released digitally at a later.

Distribution by juno.co.uk
Mastering by Optimum.

Though it would be presumptuous to predict a *Track of Summer 2016* in the modest month of April – sod that, we're going to do it anyway. After a short while finely tuning the sample-based house and disco ReGraded sub-label, Midland reopens the doors to his original Graded imprint with a release that's well worth shouting about. Catalogue number #003 comes in the form of three-track Blush EP, with an opening title track that highlighted Midland's own BR set at Dekmantel last summer. A token example of Midland's ability to create authentic, instantly catchy dance music – with a hook that's guaranteed to woo hearts across many dancefloors worldwide.

JKriv & Free Magic - Eleanora (STW Premiere)

The ups and downs, the highs and lows, the peaks and troughs. Thrills existed everywhere, all around them. There was always more excitement to seek, more chaos to create, more drums to bang and more people to dance. The world kept on spinning, as did each track and they moved forwards together as one. 
We are very excited to be able to showcase the forthcoming JMII release from Spanish stalwarts Hivern Discs. His appearance follows on from releases on labels such as 100% Silk, Subwax and NVH. Listen to 'Thrills' from the forthcoming EP below which is due for release late this month.

PREMIERE: JMII - Thrills [Hivern Discs]

Our good friends from the other side of the channel "Ransom Note Records" have teamed up with House Hunting to reissue something special to say the least. First recorded in 1983 under the name "Visual", Boyd Jarvis's cut "The Music Got Me" is one of the first true house records and a timeless classic. A staple in the 80's New York club scene, the visionary "instrumental dub" was played everywhere from the "Paradise Garage" to "Zanzibar", dance-floors packing to it's mix of throbbing bass and wooshes of analogue synth magic.
Ransom Note have long been obsessed with the record, so when House Hunting's "Aiden D'Araujo" interviewed Boyd and found out that they could license it - they jumped at the chance. Now, they present "The Music Got You" sounding bigger and better than ever before. Remastered from Boyd's original tapes by Keith Tenniswood from "Two Lone Swordsmen" at Curved Studios, The Music Got Me is pressed on limited edition, heavyweight vinyl for clarity and bass pressure.Complimenting the original release come 2 completely new mixes - the first is a dubbed out masterpiece from edit-king "Nick the Record" alongside Dan Tyler of the "Idjut Boys". Between them they take the essence of Jarvis's original and tease it out into a cavernous disco killer. Next up and here premiered comes Bawrut, the man behind Ransom Note's debut release, the nu-acid anthem "Ciquita" also premiered by us ! Bawrut does what he does best, throwing in Latin percussion, layers of screwball 303 burbles, and a sense of joy, all whilst keeping Boyd's original bass groove rolling. Don't sleep i know you want that one big time !

PREMIERE : Boyd Jarvis - The Music Got Me (Bawrut's Bawracid Workout)

The glass beaker sat upon the worktop, it's murky green contents shimmered within. This was the elixir of love and a potion of life. It was to be used sparingly as it was worth more than all of his worldly possessions combined. It had cost him his soul to purchase but now that it sat amidst the dull white room he felt scared. As he gazed out through the glass window he looked peacefully upon the autumn leaves as they fell golden to the concrete below. Up high in the tower nobody knew that what he was about to drink from would make him a new man. 

Banlieue Records return at the beginning of the new year with a statement of intent. Their new split EP features a number of prominent artists including Nummer, Benoit B, D'Marc Cantu and more.

Banlieue Records 06

PREMIERE: D'Marc Cantu - Potion Of Life [Banlieue Records]

The sun beamed down upon the radiant black concrete. The sound of an engine roared loudly in the wind as the convertible cruised along the M1. It was summer time and the beach was calling out to the gang. Music bellowed from the open top cabin and the breeze blew coarsely in her golden hair. She kept her eyes firmly fixed on the road whilst the whoops and cries of her passengers echoed in her ears. She could not find the feeling and she was not the same. This was not summer, not for her. 

Jad & The has amassed a reputation amongst lo-fi house heads and edit merchants alike. The new year sees him return with a new EP for Centre Source Records which will be his first with the Brisbane based label.

@jad-lee @centre-source-records

PREMIERE: Jad & The - Convertible On The M1 [Centre Source]

The jitter from the machine bounced around the room. It sent electric waves spinning between the cracked walls and cast a warmth throughout the dirty, dank basement. The people in the room did not care, they simply enjoyed the relentless sound of my bleep as it echoed eerily down the tunnel. The brick wall rocked abruptly as it shuddered under the weight of the noise. Water dripped from the ceiling up above and there was little air left amidst the space. Yet they continued to dance...

Efde is set to release a new EP on Voyage Direct, it will be the 26th edition to appear on the record label. The release follows on from his previous EP's which have appeared on Nordik Netrecords and Soweso. This time he digs deep as he explores the dramatic edges of techno whilst adding a lush musical edge.

My Bleep

PREMIERE: Efde - My Bleep [Voyage Direct]

The members of the household had gathered to watch the decline of the empire. As the humble leader spoke to the members of the cult on the ground below they watched as the tears poured down his face. This was not a moment of sadness but a time of joy, for in death he had completed his purpose on earth. A slow menage, a beautiful mind, a message which would last forever across the width of time. The cult would be theirs very soon. 

Marion Poncet steps up with a jacking house focussed EP with rugged samples and a hint of that old school French touch we lost decades ago. This release comes accompanied with a remix from Borrowed Identity.

PREMIERE: Marion Poncet - Slow Menage [In The Box Records]

The waves rolled slowly across the bay. The tiny wooden boat drifted delicately above the water, the sail rocking back and forth in the breeze. The bang of metal on wood rattled every few seconds as the material flapped up above their heads. They had always dreamt of becoming pirates when they were little, this was the outcome. It was not to be quite as they had imagined but out at sea the pair found themselves at peace. All aboard the good ship Puntarenas...

Till Von Sein returns with a four track EP for Suol. Focussing on deep house he leads us through an array of emotive groovers and sun kissed sounds built for warmer days.

Forever EP

PREMIERE: Till Von Sein - Puntarenas [Suol]

The voyage would take quite some time. The journey would be long but in the end it would all be worth it. As they left their little island they wondered what lay beyond the wild seas. Just like their forefathers who had come before they would travel to unchartered lands, seeking out prosperity, hope and wonder. As the sun set behind them upon their old home they did not look back, for there was to be no reflection on the past and time was of the essence.

Janeret is just one of an array of artists who are set to appear on a brand new compilation being presented by Illusion Recordings. Norm Talley, Keith Worthy and many more also feature.

Illusion Recordings Presents Connections Vol.1

PREMIERE: Janeret - Traveller [Illusion Recordings]

The light shone hazily upon the cliff face. Was it a vision, a dream or reality. The holographic principle would be the only way to determine whether this was simply a figment of his imagination or a bitter fact. The rock was awash with the beams of light from above and it cast a spell across the village which sat in its wake. No grass grew and no wind blew upon this desolate land. The people who lived there were buried under fear but the holographic principle might save them. 

Cyclonix is set to release a four track EP on Talahachi. Having previously released music on the likes of Ruff Draft, Horn Wax and Disconnected he now returns with some experimental electrics for the obscure minded.

ITX040 mixed by Operator Uno

Deep in the jungle grew an array of plants and flowers which belonged to an environment found nowhere else on planet earth. The mystic jungle was a place of distinct beauty and charismatic creatures ready to erupt at any given moment. The forest floor was alive with insects and life as the leaves feel softly from the greenery of the trees up above. In the distance the sound of a bird could be heard chirping loudly amidst the tall trees, it's cry echoed through the summer air. 

Michael Laven is set to release a six track mini album on Kerosene. Crisp ambient textures are paired with tightly crafted percussion in what is a beautiful release.

PREMIERE: Michael Laven - Aufgang [Kerosene]
