Overview
Jeff Mills’ “The Bells” is one of the most iconic tracks in techno history, often called the genre’s anthem. Known for its hypnotic bell melody, driving kick, and euphoric build, it became a staple in DJ sets worldwide. The track was first played live by Mills in 1995 (e.g., at Liquid Room in Tokyo), but it wasn’t officially released until 1997 as part of the Kat Moda EP on his Purpose Maker label. This EP is the original record pressing you’re asking about—no standalone “The Bells” single exists from that era. It has since been repressed multiple times due to massive demand (over 500,000 copies sold across versions).


Original Pressing Details
* Release Year: 1997 (though the track dates to 1995 performances and test pressings)
* Format: 12” vinyl EP, 33 ⅓ RPM
* Label: Purpose Maker
* Catalog Number: PM-002
* Country: US
* Pressing Notes: First pressing on standard black vinyl. Matrix runouts indicate a repress or variant: A side - PM 002-A (RE I) NSC; B side - PM 002-B (RE I) NSC (etched, with NSC circled). The mastering has been criticized as “shit” by some collectors for its raw, unpolished sound—typical of ’90s techno but quieter than modern represses, often requiring gain boosts in DJ sets. Sold out quickly at shops like Cisco in Tokyo upon release.

Tracklist
Side	Track	Duration
A1	The Bells	4:46
A2	Kat Race	4:22
B1	Alarms (aka “Masterplan” in later compilations)	5:32
B2	Cyclone	4:48


* 	•	Production Credits: Written, produced, and edited by Jeff Mills. Published by Millsart/BMG-Ariola.
* Why Buried on an EP? Mills reportedly avoided hype-sticker promotion to let the track’s organic popularity (from crowd reactions) drive sales. Purpose Maker was for floor-focused material, contrasting his experimental Axis label.

How to Identify an Original Pressing
* Visual Cues: Gold-on-black label design. No “10th Anniversary” or remix mentions. Check for wear from heavy club play—originals often show it.
* Sound Cues: Raw, dynamic mix with prominent kick and bells; lower loudness (not -5 LUFS like some digital remasters). Test pressings exist but are rare and unnumbered.
* Value (as of Oct 2025): $20–$50 USD for VG+ condition on Discogs/Reverb; mint originals can hit $100+ due to collector demand. Recent sales: Median $30–$40.

Later Versions and Represses
The track exploded in popularity, leading to reissues. Key ones:
* 1999 Repress: Same EP format (PM-002), minor matrix tweaks. Often mistaken for original.
* 2006 (10th Anniversary): Standalone 12” on Purpose Maker (PM-020). Includes reworked B-sides (“Gift of the Hills,” “Circus”). Louder mastering; promo versions exist. ~$15–$30.
* 2006 DVD Edition: Axis (AXDV-002). Enhanced with visuals from 1997–98 footage; limited audio/video hybrid.
* 2019 Remaster: On Sight, Sound & Space compilation (Axis). Cleaner, higher fidelity; first vinyl appearance of orchestral “Blue Potential” version.
* 2025 Remaster: Digital-only (e.g., SoundCloud edits); no new vinyl confirmed.

If you’re hunting for an original, check Discogs for verified sellers—avoid fakes by matching matrix numbers. For audio, stream the 1997 version on Beatport or Spotify. Got a specific copy or need value check? Share details! 🔔

Deep and pulsating sounds, a great bass line and a lot of energy. Rolbac & Etchar presenting “Elements“ on Einmusika. Dark and intelligent sound with a lot of experimental background. All three tracks are made for the dancefloor and fitting into the special mood of a winter night on different times. Enjoy that special package, out middle of December.

"Elements" will be out December 28th 2015.

Rolbac & Etchar - Floating Memories

Einmusika087 | N’to - Starlings EP

Cold and full of pressure, that’s how we start. With strong claps and dark synths the dancefloor is getting crowded. “Starlings“ is heavy and energetic at the same time. Some really nifty synth work by N’to bringing kind of salvation after the break and from that point it feels like a space trip into another world. To make your journey unforgettable we added a remix by Mister Henry Saiz - which is bringing more light without loosing the deepness of the track. The keys are perfected and a nice vocal keeps the theme open. On the B-Side you’ll find “J’oublie“ - a brain-melting array of warm and huge sounds, a storyboard full of emotional and breath-taking moments. The song comes without rest. It gets build up all the time, bigger and bigger. We say welcome to a complete new world based in the Einmusika universe.

'Starlings' will be out November the 14th!

01. I Need You More

03. I Need You More (Dub)

I Need You More and that’s why…
More melodies, more intense synth lines and golden vocals which make you dream of hot summer nights. Sébastien Léger is back on Einmusika with a beauty. An impressive build up and a driving bass in “I Need You More“ - a track for the best moments. Slowly back to the floor with “La Danse Du Scorpion“ - a mystic and unique track which is totally hooky and organic. The claps bringing some pressure and an ethnic vibe. On top the Dub Version of “I Need You More“ without vocals but with a great drive to bring you through a special night.

If you’ve been a fan of the label for a while, you may remember the original 4 Points series from 2008. The idea was simple: take four great artists from different parts of the world and present their music as a cohesive celebration of international artistry. Nine years later, 4 Points is back, at a time when acknowledging the multicultural facets of house and techno seems more important than ever.

Representing Northern Ireland and kicking things off is Loco & Jam, with an epic remix of Sharam & Chance Caspian’s ‘Morning Glory.’ Their spin on the tune from Sharam’s Retroactive album, is classic Loco & Jam - they take the original vocal and synth riffs and space them out over thundering percussion.

Musik ist mehr als nur guter Sound – sie ist Gefühl, Rausch, Ekstase & Leidenschaft. Lass dich darauf ein.

NICHT BESSER, ANDERS...
Markus Funkmann alias DerFunkmann alias PROVOKT//UR ist DJ, Producer & Freigeist. Sein Sound? Eine Reise durch pulsierenden Elektro-House, treibenden Techno und groovige Basslines, die direkt unter die Haut gehen.

My sound? A journey through pulsating electro-house, driving techno, and basslines that hit deep.

Vinyl is my foundation, the underground my playground: Triebwerk, Feuerwache, Apex, Grotte – every night a new chapter, every gig a tribute to the sound that fuels us. I don’t just mix tracks – I create worlds. Soundscapes where melodies collide with heavy kicks, tension builds into explosion, and vibes turn into pure energy.

Genres? Irrelevant. I dig for hidden gems, unexpected grooves, and the unknown. When the bass shakes the room, the crowd loses itself in the rhythm, and the atmosphere crackles – that’s the moment I live for. No generic sets, just a trip into another dimension. Music is more than sound – it’s emotion, rush, and ecstasy. Get ready to dive in.
