Hailing from the free swinging hills of San Francisco, established DJ and producer Alland Byallo has created his own unique sound out of a love for deep, soulful house combined with more edgy techno moments. From his own successful Nightlight label he has released a quality catalogue including his
debut artist album last year. Of course it was only a matter of time until his talents were noticed by Poker Flat boss Steve Bug, and the results are this briliant 2 tracker, which also marks Alland‘s arrival in his new home of Berlin. Welcome to town Mr Byallo!
‚Discovaries‘ has a healthy amount of Berlin‘s reduced techno affinity rooted within its phasing, growing p-funk waves. Tense, moody and of course drenched with attention to detail, this is a grower in the true Poker Flat style. The sunken, murkier undertones of ‚Shipwrecked‘ begin as a darker moment in techno, however gradually unfold and surface into a shining, tripped out afterhours anthem.
Tracklist:
A: Discovaries
B: Shipwrecked

Tracklist :
A1 (1) Pascal Hetzel - Data Loss, A2 (2) Acirne - Morla,
B1 (3) Mass Digital - Rotation, B2 (4) Haiku575 & Luca Saporito - Knowledge Is Free
Infotext:
Following up to our heavyweight, twenty track strong digital compilation album "Diary 5" and starting our vinyl year 2k16 is "A Selection Of Diary 5" - a carefully picked selection featuring four highlights taken from the digital release to cater the needs of all vinyl loving DJ's collectors out there. The journey begins with "Data Loss", the most horrific thing in the digital age but Pascal Hetzel's tune of the same name is nothing horrific at all. Sweet analogue chords and a nice, slightly Acid-infused Chicago-vibe turn this one into a must for all dancefloors dedicated to deeper grooves. Representing Italy on this four track piece is Acirne. Her track "Morla" is nothing short of a massive roller dedicated to all DJ's and clubbers who're in for a more functional attitude throughout the darkest hours of a proper night out when all they need is provided by melancholia-induced strings and a sparkling synth sequence.
Mass Digital are on "Rotation" with their contribution to this 12" vinyl and will be loved by punters and DJ's alike for their highly functional approach, lush bass work and loose tribal vibes as well as their huge, off-kilter synth sweeps and spiralling sirens. This one's for the small hours.
The final cut "Knowledge Is Free" is quite a statement of a track crafted by the production team Haiku575 & Luca Saporito which will brighten the hearts of all digital natives whilst played out during sexy late night sessions in underground venues all around the globe. A message that unites people, like music does.

Tracklist : 1. 100 (original) 2. 100 (Jubiläum Mix)
Infotext:
One hundred. Three digits. Finally we've made it and we're proud to announce that we've reached a milestone that every label aims for: the one hundredth release in a continous sequence of catalogue numbers. And what a journey it has been over the course of the past eight years.
To celebrate this once-in-a-lifetime event no-one less than Marco Resmann himself comes up with a dedicated 12" single that's not only named "100" but also comes as a special gold vinyl edition plus gold label prints and seethrough packaging that makes this record stick out amongst many in each and every vinyl lovers collection as well as in every DJ case.
The original version of "100" is a big room monster of a TechHouse tune, providing maximum tension through scattered shakers, carefully arranged synth sweeps and long, strident build ups introducing dark, psyched out and proggy bass and midrange warps leading towards an ultimate climax whenever this tune is hammered through a club rig.
On the flipside we see the 'Jubiläums Mix' of "100" following intense spiralling basslines all through the course of the night whilst layers and layers of ecstatic stabs and a continuous swell of uplifting, positive synths introduces crowds to high-octane levels of buzzing dancefloor energy. What a blast.

Tracklist :
A1: Remember Me (original), A2: Remember Me (Pascal Hetzel & Sierra Sam 's System 100 Mix ), B: Remember Me (Marco Resmann Remix)
Short info:
It's time for an overdue reunion as a long time friend makes a return to the Upon.You family with a new vinyl exclusive single these days. And of course we're talking about the Belgium-born Sammy Goossens, better known as Sierra Sam to all lovers of quality TechHouse beyond, who is about to release his "Remember Me" 12" on our vinyl only offshoot UYX Series in fall 2k15.
The original version of "Remember Me" causes us to gravitate straight towards the center of the club, sporting percussion layers as hot as a tropical night out and well-morphed sample wizzardry with a classic, dry windy city touch. Later on we're carried away by positive, uplifting stab sequencing and an energy overload that sends punters to ecstatic heavens for a reason.
The next variation on "Remember Me" is the 'Pascal Hetzel & Sierra Sam`s System 100 Mix' - a way darker affair on the technoid side of things. Psyched out, Acid-induced synth lines meet a threatening, slightly distorted drum foundation, frizzling high-hats on overdrive and devil'ish, psychotic vocal processing from hell. 100% underground bunker music for those who know.
Finally we see Upon.You-founder Marco Resmann on remix duties for "Remember Me", catering a fascinating, highly energetic, yet dry and tool'ish cut on the original track for maximum dancefloor frenzy. Watch out for siren synths on fleek!

Tracklist : 1. Colour Pulp 2. Trouble 3. Geneve Never Sleeps
Infotext:
Welcome back Mr. Quenum! It's been roughly two years now since the Geneve-based artist, DJ and producer released made his Upon.You debut with his single "Rhyme" in summer 2013 and we're extremely thrilled to see his forthcoming three track 12" "Trouble" causing serious dancefloor trouble again this fall.
Getting started with "Colour Pulp" there's no doubt that Quenum is in for some serious action here, fusing an uncomprising, yet minimalistic, hard pumping TechHouse foundation, well-tripping vocal bits and a highly percussive killer build-up sequence this tune is crafted for late nothing but late night abuse.
The title track "Trouble" also relies on Quenum's rolling trademark minimalism and obscured, morphing ethereal voices but adds a little bit of tribal seasoning here and there that perfectly floats alongside quirky synths and a steamy, fever'ish feel that keeps bodies pumping and palpitating through the night until the morning comes. Functional as functionality can get.
Finally "Geneve Never Sleeps" speeds up things on a darker, more technoid level where a dark'ish intro built from muffled bassdrums meets scattered, futuristic percussions before shrieking stabs and scarce, ghostly sounds take over and the unstoppable Techno engine starts to run. Proper machine music that is nothing but pure energy!

1. Solaris 2. Over The Sky 3. Level 1
Infotext:
We're sending a warm welcome to Luca Agnelli, the newest addition to the Upon.You-family, ever active producer and co-founder of the Italian imprint Etruria Beat. Mr. Agnelli has been making waves in the electronic music scene since 2006 with a string of releases and remixes on labels like Truesoul, Get Digital Music, Desolat or Moan Recordings and is now setting floors on fire with his first ever EP on Upon.You Records - "Solaris".
Opening with the title track, the massive "Solaris" introduces Luca Agnelli's trademark style to the worlds dancefloors - a perfect fusion of dark'ish, reverb heavy underground Techno, echo'ing chords and beautiful, abstract melodies combining motor city melancholia, the immortal wizzardry of early synth masters and the everlasting fascination of spiralling Acid lines. Epic!With "Over The Sky" we stay on a pumping Techno vibe whilst floating along on a nicely rolling bassline foundation and super sweet, uplifting melodies telling tales of genuine innocence and sparkling pulchritude - a masterpiece for everlasting sunrise sessions. Finally "Level 1 (Upo Luca)" takes us on a technoid, bass-induced, late night rollercoaster ride sporting deep and 'troity abstractions as well as lovely, well-fragile crystalline sound fountains for those who know - get ready for the next wave of ItaloDetroit!

A: Leo Dance, B1: Overdeus, B2: Puretec
Short info:
With the new "Leo Dance EP" released on our rough'n'raw underground whitelabel sidekick UYX Series an old friend returns - the man his friends and parents know as Farid Boudinar whilst all lovers of quality electronic music between House and Techno are more familiar with his F.E.X. moniker. On the circuit for about 15 years now and backed by numerous releases on labels like Dessous Recordings, Brique Rouge, Systematic and many more our French fellow, who was also responsible for the very first UYX Series release back in 2013, unveils the more technoid side of his work, pleasing punters and DJ's alike with a purist attitude and delightful functionality.
Opening with "Leo Dance" we see hard hitting snare rolls, fast-paced drums and brooding, big room basslines going hand in hand with deep, yet uplifting synth works ready for lift off whilst slo-mo alien noises add a bit of a mystical, haunted athmosphere. Spine tingling peaktime pressure!
On the flipside "Overdeus" provides a more dry and stripped-down feel when minimalistic TechHouse meets a decent, ever busy and evolving main motif that's building up in waves providing constant change and excitement through a beautiful sequential arrangement of climax after climax after climax.
Finally "Puretec" enters darker, sci-fi influenced realms, keeping Techno floors in motion with a stone cold attitude, undulating strings and a perfectly crafted, uberly functional synth sequence that pays homage to the masters of Detroit Techno - a perfect tune for concrete underground basement venues immersed in fog and strobelights.

1. Coma 2. Silver Door 3. Karma (Vinyl Only) 4.Untitled Three (Digi Extra)
Infotext:
Welcome back, Okain! After his digital label debut "Some Of My Tools" and his praised collaboration with ONNO resulting in their conjunctional "Triple O" EP Samuel Thalmann a.k.a. Okain is about to unleash four brand new tunes on his forthcoming Upon.You-single "Coma".
With the title track "Coma" our French friend masterly crafts an enthrallingly bouncy mother of a tune walking the fine line between House and TechHouse, serving swirling Hi-NRG synth modulations and super ecstatic vocal bits for those who like to get into the groove. This track is prime time heaven for all clubbers out there.
Following up is "Karma", a tune again well-balanced between the House and TechHouse side of things but clearly focusing on the deeper end of the spectrum. Spatial effects and mellow, slightly dubbed out chords meet muscular drums, dreamy, balearic sample work as well as scenic string arrangements all serving perfectly for latenight sets and epic transitions between night and dawn.
Opening the "Silver Door" Okain's sonic journey leads him straight into the jackin' zone. A Chitown-reminiscing phonk, stripped down production and an almighty Acid-line are the weapons of choice to hype the crowd right before floating synths really mark the point when things are about to get intense. Timeless as timeless can get and a future classic for sure.
Finally with "Untitled Three" things are getting a little techy for a reason. Banging drums, razorblade hi-hats and woodwork percussions are setting the pace for the ultimate seduction brought to you by Yello'esque male vocal bits, more Chicago referring basslines and on point chords reverberating and bouncing off each other into spiralling eternity.

Infotext:
It's been three intense years now since the formerly Tel Aviv-based DJ, producer and Girl Scout-leader Magit Cacoon hooked up with the Upon.You-family back in 2012 after relocating herself to Berlin and making some serious waves on the cities - and of course the European - club circuit. Three exciting years in which the flawless amalgamation of stunning performance behind the decks, vibrant sense of melodic thrills and her enchanting personality has added invaluable moments of magic to innumerable club nights and festivals whilst the production and studio persona of Magit Cacoon continously panned out, creating a unique signature sound directly derived from her experience as an air miles collecting DJ. Within a few years only she's come a long way from her 2011-released debut "Voyage 34" on her own Girl Scout label via releases on Be As One Imprint and Whatpeopleplay to remix works for the UK outfit Porcupine Tree and a string of groundbreaking releases on Upon.You Records, that perfectly reflect on her specific musical vision that now fully unfolds on ".Other Dimension", Magit Cacoon's first ever longplay album and a seductive, yet playful and surely spine thrilling statement of a matured and fully grown artistic mind. Written and produced in collaboration with Oliver Deutschmann Magit Cacoon's album debut "Other Dimension" covers the whole spectrum of vibrant contemporary club music that, although closely bond to the framework of House, TechHouse, chromatic (Neo)Trance and related 4/4-based derivates, thinks way beyond pure dancefloor functionality. This universal approach and vision does not only show in the detailed and carefully crafted sound sculptures built within an electronic studio environment but shines even more in the use of Magit Cacoon's most natural and intimate instrument - her own voice. From the carefully crafted Ambient soundscapes of the epic intro tune "Plant M" to the overwhelming bass pleasure and cinematic melancholia of "Crime (Who's Afraid Of Berlin)" the journey goes, continues into the anthemic, late 80s Detroit reminiscing chord progression of "Freedom Is Timeless" that sees a nice little flirtation with Pop going on before the "Love Express" works dancefloors uncompromisingly, serving a hard, fevering, ever evolving track style to all creatures of the night. Magit Cacoon is speeding things up with frolicking basslines and an uberly condensed atmosphere of "No Compromise" that provides relief through a few sparse, 'troity chords followed by the albums title track "Other Dimension" that once again proves her feel for long, epic build-ups and sweet, melancholia-struck melodies - this time served on a slightly techier foundation that undoubtedly supports one of the most emotional anthems of 2015 and beyond. Talking things techy the "Ghetto Xberg" even fuses huge string arrangements and bleepy Acid lines to a great effect whilst the subaquatic Bass excursion named "Oddity Sound" brings in Drexciyan qualities and vibes. More heavily trippin' bass pressure is found in "Light" that's - despite its title - surprisingly flirting with darker, more threatening powers whilst working sweat-soaked crowds to the max and so is the powerful and well buzzing "Summertime Space" which is as primetime bond as its predecessor. Finally with "Orion" , the albums closing tune, things are coming full cycle again when slowly pounding low frequency sounds and calm Ambient soundscapes accomplish eachother nicely, perfectly rounding off the longplay debut of an extraordinary artist and a beloved member of the Upon.You tribe.

Tracklist :
A: Looking At The Starz B1: Looking At The Starz (Marco Resmann Remix), B2: Black Holes
Infotext:
LOYOTO - three syllables fused to a name that sounds strangely familiar but yet is a project on the rise and making its full on debut on Upon.You Records these days although the formative and creative duo behind this name is longtime established amongst connaisseurs of electronic music, both for individual solo works as well as for praised cooperations and conjunctional efforts with other artists.
So who is LOYOTO? It's the brainchild of both Berlin-based artists DJ Cle, ambassador of finest House Music since the late 80s, part of the legendary Märtini Brös. and backed by a string of solo releases and remixes on labels like Poker Flat Recordings or Local Talk, and Eva Be, originally rooted in Dub and Reggae, recording artist for Best Works and Best Seven as well as remixer for Sonar Kollektiv, Pulver Records and many others. Together they bring in their experiences from both sides of the spectrum, exploring dubby electronic spheres - and the miraculous beauty of the universe - in their corporate studio space This shared experience shows in the title track "Looking At The Starz", a deep and organic TechHouse affair touched by floating Dub, featuring most beautiful bass motifs, levitating drones, reverberant chords and dream-inducing space vocals alongside a tender, slightly uplifting melody that makes dancers and groovers grin like a Cheshire cat. On the flip we'll find Upon.You-mastermind Marco Resmann on remix duties, dubbing out the vocals darkly and serving a 180° turn vibewise. His primetime-focused version of "Looking At The Starz" is defined by a foundation of demandingly pounding drums and sharp hi-hats paving the way for a threatening, ever evolving and slightly metallic sounding sawtooth synth that warps alongside swirling signals gyrating like artificial insects finally guided to an ultimate climax by a intricately twisted little motif carving its way out from the depths of a thrilling breakdown.
Finally - at least when it comes to vinyl - there's "Black Holes", a spaced out vision of Electronic Dub harking back to the roots of Dub in terms of serving a sparse, spatial and stripped down sonic experience as well as fusing these qualities with modern DubTechno and the ever embracing beauty of Ambient / Deep Listening Music whilst implanting essential knowledge about the nature of "Black Holes" into our subconscious mind."
Also individually available for all digital customers is the Instrumental Version of Marco Resmann's remix for "Looking In The Starz" whilst the "Black Holes (Instrumental)" is served as a digital bonus to those who're purchasing LOYOTO's debut as a complete bundle.

It's been three intense years now since the formerly Tel Aviv-based DJ, producer and Girl Scout-leader Magit Cacoon hooked up with the Upon.You-family back in 2012 after relocating herself to Berlin. Within this period the charismatic performer served a string of groundbreaking releases on Upon.You Records that perfectly reflect on her musical vision now fully unfolding on her first album "Other Dimension" which is a seductive, yet playful and surely spine tingling statement of a matured and fully grown artistic mind.
With "Love Express" we're proud to unleash the first 12" taken off this stunning longplayer, featuring two original album tracks alongside thrilling reworks surely about to work dancefloors right.
The original version of "Love Express" works dancefloors uncompromisingly, serving a hard, fevering, ever evolving track style to all creatures of the night whilst Magit Cacoon's repetetive vocals and the tracks' tense overall atmosphere open large, reverberating spaces.
Remixed by Marius Maier a.k.a. Re.You, widely praised for his releases on labels like Mobilee, keinerechte or Moon Harbour, the title track "Love Express" takes a slightly different direction whilst introducing tribalistic drum structures, dramatic breakdowns and a large bassline perfectly complementing the hypnotic approach of this great rework.
Flipping the wax Magit Cacoon's "No Compromise" is speeding things up with frolicking basslines and an uberly condensed atmosphere that provides relief through a few sparse, 'troity chords - truly a fest for all lovers of more technoid TechHouse derivates.
The now Berlin-based US producer Kevin McHugh a.k.a. Ambivalent is taking care of "No Compromise" remixwise, weighing in a straight and uncompromising Techno vision based upon a well-pounding drumset, spiralling midrange synths and trippy, melodic rearrangements for large concrete spaces and hypnotic primetime abuse. A killer remix for sure!

Tracklist : A: Lava 1, B1: Lava 2, B2: Lava Dub
Infotext:
Sometimes it takes a little longer until things happen.
Talking the conjunctional studio joint of Martin Landsky and Marco Resmann entitled "Lava", now released under their collaborational project Landsky & Resmann, this single is one that has been overdue for quite a while and for a reason. A reason and shared history that essentially helped to shape and add momentum to Marco Resmann's career at an early stage a good 13 years ago when he wasn't even known under his real name but used the artistic alias Phage DJ- and production-wise. It was back in the early noughties when Marco Resmann sent out a demo to Martin Landsky and his former label Intim Recordings which he admired musically, got through and the tracks that were picked are now known in the history book of electronic music as "Volkspark E.P.", his first ever single release that became the output number 009 on Intim Recordings back in 2002 and, if you will, the foundation on which Marco's production career was built. Now, after all these years in which Martin Landsky became one of the mainstays in the Poker Flat Recordings-family after folding his own imprint whilst Marco Resmann built a huge reputation on the international DJ-circuit and co-founded Upon.You Records, they finally teamed up in the studio for "Lava", a single piece as timeless and essential as it can get. On the A-side we've got "Lava 1" , a quite pumping and deep technoid piece that is fully aware of the seductive grooves only stripped down House music can provide. With carefully crafted build-ups, melancholia-driven strings and moody modulations this one's a true force on the dancefloor, using only very essential elements and razor sharp hi-hats to get a whole nation under a groove. Sexy as hell. Flipping the wax we've got "Lava 2" sporting a dry, wild pitch and Chicago-related feel whilst providing a quite track'ish attitude in the use of ever twisting background noises, a simple but catchy repetetive low frequency motif and on point filter abuse that's in for the thrill before the second synth line is adding additional momentum in reflecting and transposing the main motif to a new frequency level. Finally the so-called "Lava Dub" explores deeper realms of beautiful dancefloor melancholia based upon a super solid foundation of lush bassdrums and rich, dreamy string-arrangements accompanied by dubbed out vocal snippets and classy, vastly-coloured synths shining through every now and then, making "Lava Dub" a perfect late night tune for House music lovers and more intimate dancefloors.

Here it is, the final chapter of our 2014 Upon.You-"Diary" - a full on compilation based on the trusted and intransigent taste-buds of our long time friend and stalwart producer Gunnar Stiller who has been digging deep into the sonic layers of our universe for the fourth installment of the "Diary"-series on his mission to unearth shining House- / TechHouse - / TechWhatever-diamonds perfectly reflecting the Upon.You-sound of today... and tomorrow.
With the second part of our latest label compilation being released in mid-November we're now proud to present "Diary 4.2 A Vinyl Selection" - a new 12" vinyl single again featuring a sweet selection of four essential tracks taken from the vast richness that is to be found on "Diary No. 4 - Compiled By Gunnar Stiller", a perfect sequel and a seductive treat for all wax addicts out there. With these tunes produced by the likes of Ruede Hagelstein, Marco Resmann, Gorge and the Beatamines we're sending special shouts to all vinyl loving DJ's, bringing them the second hand-picked "Diary" selection of high quality electronic dancefloor cuts for heavy primetime workouts and late night abuse. We're opening the dance with "Nonnenrauschen", Ruede Hagelstein's contribution to "Diary No. 4". Uberly precise and built of only a few, very carefully placed elements that create the kind of magical, mystical vibe one longs for in the final hours of a long night out, the small hours in which a fever'ish instincts take over and all one is craving for is a massive bassline embracing each and everyone around. Epic? Epic.
More highly seductive sonic pleasure is coming from the vaults of Marco Resmann's studio space who is fully focusing on the hypnotizing effects of repetitive stabs accompanied by beautifully progressing melodies - a simple and effective formula that makes the summer "Sun" rise over each and every floor when the stunning vocal break provides final relief and slightly balearic elements add a unique, calming yet levitating vibe to this track.
The man they call Gorge has been making some serious waves on the electronic music circuit within the past ten years and his "Diary"-contribution "In Sync" is a sweet example for his remarkable ability to fuse an ever changing synth motif evolution with pure dancefloor pressure whilst garnishing things with Rave-reminiscing vocal bits and the very essence of how Trance-inducing electronic music can be. Play this one in huge, jam-packed spaces and you're about to see a crowd going bonkers within a few bars.
Serving the perfect closing track is theErfurt-based Pascal Eckardt a.k.a. Beatamines who is taking care of a beautiful sonic "Lotus" flower built of frolicking, slightly Jazz-influenced percussion lines and a seductively meandering hook that makes each and every punter smile for a reason. One of these tunes that are able to turn an average party into the best night out ever.

Tracklist 12":
A1: Divisions (Downstairs), A2: Divisions (Upstairs), B: Divisions (Tuff City Kids Remix)
Short info:
After rockin' floors with his debut EP "Feel That Beat" in April 2014 Pascal Hetzel now returns to our rough'n'raw underground sidekick UYX-Series with his new 12" "Divisions", serving two variations on the main track plus a massive rework by the infamous pairing Tuff City Kids, a well-rounded package that will be a vital contribution to loads and loads of fully loaded club nights throughout the the next months.
Entering technoid realms with the EP's opener "Divisions (Downstairs)" Pascal Hetzel relies on a significant bassdrum punch and a simple but effective arrangement of dubbed out, subaquatic stabs to get crowds moving, adds up some some raw, unprocessed hi-hats, haunting sweeps, well-set filter movements and a great tribute to one of the classic oldskool rave masters - a high-octane tune for crowds already on fire.
The following "Divisions (Upstairs)" keeps energy levels high as well, serving more punchy drums whilst focusing on a softened, more uplifting and positive feel when it comes to synth works and melody, bringing in a perfect p.a.r.t.y.-vibe for all those who love to balance on the thin line between TechHouse and classic stab-heavy House. There's no doubt that Mr. Pascal Hetzel is fusing the best of both worlds in this tune.
Flipping the wax we see the Tuff City Kids on remix duties. The collaborational studio force of Gerd Janson and Phillip Lauer is bowing down to the intensity of early hardcore days when they're unleashing this jack-hammer of a rework - and it is a beast for sure. A serious amalgamation of a reverb-heavy foundation, oldskool sawtooth signals, dark and slightly filtered signature stabs and twisted breakbeat abuse is sending for horns, fog-machines, high-performance strobelights and huge laser attacks. Rave is back? Yes, indeed.

The year is 2014 and we're looking into the Upon.You-"Diary" again of which the fourth and most recent chapter has been written by our long time friend and stalwart producer Gunnar Stiller who has been digging deep into the sonic layers of our universe to unearth shining House- / TechHouse - / TechWhatever-diamonds perfectly reflecting the Upon.You-sound of today …and tomorrow. After the full-on digital release of our latest label compilation we're proud to present "Diary 4.1 A Vinyl Selection" - a 12" vinyl single featuring a sweet selection of four essential tracks taken from the vast richness that is to be found on "Diary No. 4 - Compiled By Gunnar Stiller". With these tunes produced by the likes of Einzelkind, Daniel Stefanik, The Cheapers and Gunnar Stiller himself we're sending special shouts to all vinyl loving DJ's, bringing them a hand-picked selection of high quality electronic dancefloor cuts for heavy primetime workouts and late night abuse. "Finding Love" is the mission for Einzelkind of Pressure Traxx- and La Pena-fame and they're about to find it straight at the heart of the dancefloor, in the midst of the sweat-covered, ecstatic crowd happily floating along dark'ish basslines, ever repeating vocal bits and a sweet little, glockenspiel'esque melody playfully peaking through the heavy bass grooves every now and then. Representing the Leipzig-scene is Daniel Stefanik who explores uptempo realms with the levitating string arrangements of "All God's People" that might be filed under the flag of being angelic by some - or many. Masterly crafted and accompanied by precisely cut, slightly electroid sounding percussion works this one is a perfect example of how emotional things can get within electronic music - imagine a crowd loving this tune to bits when the first rays of sun hit a festival site again after a long night under the dark skies. Following up is Gunnar Stiller with his "Diary" contribution of the same name in which the man himself takes TechHouse to a quite techy, straightforward level with hi-hats as sharp as a knife and uberly thrilling, massive and quite surprising synth breakdown meant to set the roof on fire. Pure energy and a new definition of Rave. The essence of the collaborational studio force of Fraenzen Texas and Ruede Hagelstein is bottled under their conjunctional moniker The Cheapers which has been part of the Upon.You-family from day dot. Focusing on more melodic, analogue sounding aspects of TechHouse with "Rosetta" they're weighing in uplifting, playful melody works touched by organic melancholia, modernistic (Neo)Trance-elements and a tongue-in-cheek reminiscence of some infamous Swiss electronic music pioneers.

It's all about the O. The dutch they call ONNO. The frenchie they call Okain. The Originality of their internatiOnal cOllabOratiOn. The rOcking danceflOOrs and the ObviOus jOy their tunes bring tO whOOping crOwds. TwO members Of the UpOn.YOu family jOin fOrces in the studiO fOr the very first time, setting things straight for this seasOn with a bOiling hOt triple treatment that's abOut tO make peOple gO: "OOOh yeah!"
With "MP Scene" the pair of producers open the set with a steadily pumping, muscular tune built around huge, embracing organic bass pulses, sharp, unprocessed impellent hi-hats, serious, slightly twisted Club Techno stabs and captivating strings from the upper end of the acoustic spectrum announcing the next big thrill lurking behind the next audible twist. Progressing into the next tune "Set Me Back" opens with large, pounding bass drums, clever shaker works and a big heap of ONNO's so called Gangsta Techno influence represented by tense vocal samples most obviously taken straight from the streets of the hood. Combining this roughneck attitude with lively, bubbling synth lines and dubbed out, echoing chords and some oldskool'ish cowbells the roof is surely on fire when "Set Me Back" is hammering on a large P.A. system on a TechHouse floor near you. Finally the "Tiebreaker" brings on a straight forward feel of stripped down TechHouse with a foundation built of gravelly, analogue sounding bass tones and super solid, effervescent, LatinHouse-reminiscing breakbeat loops working things out to maximum effect percussionwise. All ONNO & Okain need to add is a fine icing of sparse, frosty and phantasmal synths which - due to their hypnotizing force - draw revelling punters right to the centre of the dancefloor in search of the ultimate thrill and a killer groove.

UPC: 827170539860 Release : 23.06.2014
Tracklist : a1. Spider Web, b1 Time Factor, b2 Five Twenty Seven
Infotext:
2014 has been a great year so far for Upon.You co-founder Marco Resmann so far with DJ-sets all over the place, a highly-praised rework for Vince Watson and a full-on solo EP on Steve Bug's Poker Flat both rocking crowds to critical acclaim whilst his very own label Upon.You is firing from all cylinders. Plus: there's a lucky bag of new and exciting things to come within the next months. This said it seems to be the perfect point in time to unveil "05:27" - Mr. Resmann's new and upcoming 12" on Upon.You featuring three tracks subtly dedicated to a loved one and aptly crafted to maximum effect. Things start on a clean, techy and well-hypnotic level with the sparse, skeletal opening tune "Spider Web" which gives way to an ever evolving, steadily morphing sci-fi synth motif from the very start, continously creeping like lava on top of the tracks backbone built of dry bassdrums and quivering hihats steadily creating an ever growing tension with only a few iridiscent breaks providing ecstatic relief for heaving crowds on the floor. With "Time Factor" Mr. Resmann even manages to increase dancefloor pressure by speeding up things and introducing a raw, bass heavy House feel that's reminiscent of the pounding, hollow club sound experience every punter knows - a tickling, thrilling, spine-tingling heartbeat, a steady boom boom boom percolating through every venues walls and doors, announcing a great night out that's only a few steps away. Combining this adrenaline rushing vibe with a dense, athmospheric feel and ever swelling, spiralling synth pieces contrasted by innocent, frolicking melodies is what makes "Time Factor" a perfect late night jam for very special nightlife moments words cannot properly describe. Call it a future classic for those who know. Finally the title track "Five Twenty Seven" kicks off with a rolling, slightly dark'ish and NYC-reminiscent drum structure for main rooms and goes down a deeper road with vibrant, ever active tones bouncing on and off each other resulting in abstract melodic patterns nicely complementing thrilling, melancholia driven chords and a deep, emotional bassline in a constant state of flux telling a beloved story that every creature of the night can surely relate to - a fairy tale of enchanted spots, legendary nights, life altering sets and a trip to the very core of the inner self, driven by instincts and the subliminal magic of tribal drums causing a ritual state of trance ever since the forefathers started to dance.

UPC 827170539266 Release : 28.04.2014 (phys.)
Special Remarks: 12" stamped, papersleeve
Tracklist 12":
A: Feel That Beat, B1: The Brut 909, B2: Something Happens
With the second serving in our underground sidekick UYX-series we're sending a warm welcome to a fresh young talent and the latest member of the Upon.You-family - Mr. Pascal Hetzel. Pascal already proved his production skills with his widely acknowledged remix for "My Space feat Hollis P Monroe & Overnite" by KiNK & Sierra Sam in 2013 and now fully debuts with his three track EP "Feel That Beat" which is his first solo release ever and a forecast of what's to expect from the young and aspiring producer / DJ regularly appearing at the decks of Berlin's famous Panorama Bar. The title track "Feel That Beat" introduces Pascal Hetzel's love for all things jacking, focusing on raw, pretty unprocessed percussion elements, loads of highly effective filter action for all lovers of the wildpitch era and wildly exhausted male vocals embracing the vibe of a top notch night out in a scattered, fragmented manner. "The Brute" lives up to its very name with heavily pumping drum patterns and hi-hats as sharp as a knife causing an electric buzz on the dancefloor whilst seductively processed vocals and a simple but highly effective bass figure do some serious damage on the floor before distorted filters, LFO and high energy synth stabs provide the ultimate climax for a crowded dancefloor. Raw and brutal as House music can get and perfectly emulating the vibe and athmosphere of the scenes early days. We call it a killer cut.
Finally We're rounding things off with "Something Happens", a dark'ish and well hypnotic tune for all those loving their tracks to start really track'ish. Riding a totally stripped down vibe is what Pascal Hetzel is all about here before a nothing but truly epic break changes things rapidly. Classy strings and clubby stabs with an aura of polished chrome emerge surprisingly, recalling a proper ClubTechno feel that brings back the R-A-V-E to all dancefloors near you.

Genre: House / Techno

In Japanese, the word “Guru-Guru” refers to the state of spinning, whirling.?
This state is captured in the work of Japanese artist Hoshina Anniversary, who makes his third appearance on MUSAR with his EP Guru Guru and marks the return of the label after an extended break.

Hoshina’s self-titled brand of ‘Watechno’ has appeared on well-loved dance music labels like ESP Institute, Volvox’s Jack Dept and Young Marco’s Safe Trip,
alongside MUSAR where he also appeared as Shifting Gears back in 2022; an electronic-jazz-centered moniker.

His Guru Guru EP captures the latest snapshot of Hoshina’s sound and sees him draw from Japanese language as a through-line.
The title track is the clearest representation of his ‘Watechno’, where he uses Japanese instrumentation on top of a menacing EBM-style march. The track's slowly whirling momentum is the “Guru-Guru”.

On tracks like “Banri”, which means far away in Japanese, we see new shades to Hoshina’s work as he mixes a Japanese Wadaiko drum groove with acidic elements and piano melodies to make a track of contradictions which pairs roughness with elegance. Whereas on “Usagi”, Japanese for rabbit, Hoshina fires up the BPM.
Piano melodies remain here but their effect is more drifting and emotive than on “Banri”.
“Kaga” is named after a place in the southernmost part of Ishikawa Prefecture, between Kanazawa City and Fukui City.
On this track, Hoshina’s love for jazz comes through and even mirrors the work we heard from him under Shifting Gears.

"Don't Stop" is the third album retrospectively released by Ghia. As the subtitle "Early Works & Artefacts 1984-1987" implies, it features some of their earliest compositions as well as tracks that were recorded during the same period as their "Curaçao Blue" LP.

The album is a fusion of diverse music styles. Listeners will delight in a range of genres, including electro, funk, soul, jazz-funk, synth pop, and even rap/hip-hop, all woven together as a cohesive work that remains mostly instrumental. As a whole, "Don't Stop" represents Ghia's funkiest and most experimental release to date. Notably, the LP features a rap version of Hermann Hesse's controversial German poem "Armer Teufel am Morgen nach dem Maskenball" ("Poor Devil the Morning After the Costume Ball") from 1926, accompanied by a drum machine rhythm and funky guitar. This poem depicts a person who drank too much the night before, telling the story and describing his hangover. The title track "Don't Stop" and the thrilling minimal electro-funk tune "3 A.M. at Moëf Gaga" both evoke old-school electro influences. The latter references the Spanish discotheque Moëf Gaga, located on the Balearic coast, which the dynamic duo of Lutz Boberg and Frank Simon frequented during their 1980s holidays. While the exact music played at 3 A.M. is unknown, listening to Ghia's track will undoubtedly capture the mood of the place.

One of the key tracks of the album is "Message From The Other Side", which could easily be noted as one of the nicest European synth-funk instrumental pieces ever. The track is based on a sick synth bass line, sparkled with DX7 chord hits, funky guitar, and a delightful "marimba" solo in the last third. The solo was actually played on Boberg's keyboard, using a special sound cartridge. This particular track had to be edited and technically revised by Marian Tone and DJ Scientist as the existing demo version of the song could not be used as is. With its stunning groove, this track will surely be a DJ's favorite.

Listening to the complete album, there is more of Boberg's keyboard wizardry: could you believe that the trumpet solo on "Jump In The Water" as well as the short but stunning slap bass solo on "Talk Too Much" were both played by on the DX7? However, this new release, unlike the jazzy "Curaçao Blue", is not about solos or virtuous playing - it clearly shows the duo's direction towards more electronic composition and clear song structures. The versions of "September Garden", "When The Rain is Falling" as well as "Talk Too Much" are actually instrumental mixdowns of vocal songs. And again, we get a blissful take of "Close To You", here a version from 1986. This soulful jazz-funk ballad could already be heard on "Curaçao Blue" while the final vocal version with singer Lisa Ohm can be found on the recently released "This Is" LP. This shows that the Ghia composers, Boberg and Simon, were perfectionists - tracks were reworked again and again, making them better and better.

The album was mastered and restored with great care, and we are pleased to provide you with a perfect example of mid 1980s home-recording pleasures, tinged with a youthful spirit and providing a sound that cannot be recaptured anymore nowadays. Alongside "This Is" and "Curacao Blue" it should be another perfect addition to any 80s groove collection as well as a great pick for DJs that love and play disco, leftfield electro and funk. The LP is limited to 500 copies.

Tracklist

A1. Get To Know You
A2. Marsu (The Cat)
A3. Alone In Paris
B1. Time Machine
B2. Cats Of Yavorov
B3. Rain In Her Eyes

File under: Singer-songwriter house, outsider or campfire dance. Katerina’s full-blown debut EP for Running Back melds cultural images of both places she calls home. Alternatively hailing from Helsinki or Sofia, she serves ethereal vocals, heartbreaking melodies and the chilly melancholic strains of the north to meet an optimistic and at times cheerful mood, paired with pop music themes, heavy bass lines and an upbeat drum section. Six tracks of idiosyncratic and independent dance motifs (including two ambient takes) that all go against the grain of the fast pace of life today, cheap thrills and unnecessary kills. All symbolized in the lyrics of the lead song Get To Know You or the instrumental love ballad Rain In Her Eyes and bound together by Marsu The Cat or Time Machine. An EP with the depth of an LP, lots of weight and even more character. Powerful, wonderful and more durable than the remains of one day.

The H.A.N.S. is back. wit’ more tools for fools. four traxx and two extras for the soft working dj and the fast moving dancer. more samples, more nasty beats, more heavy stripped down kaputt groovers. Weak kick drums, lazy arrangements & shameless sampling guaranteed. Food for fun? Maybe rooted somewhere between the early Paul Jacobs and the late BCC Music starring a 2014 twist if you know what I mean. You better remember that H-ouse A-int N-othing S-erious. It is still nothing but big fun.

2023 repress, WG Standard Sleeve

Tracklist:
A1) GameOvr A2) GameOvr (Cassy Remix) B1) Trigonometry B2) Trigonometry (La Fleur Remix)

Infotext:
Sasha continues to make this year his own as he drops his debut EP on Watergate, 'GameOvr'. The EP features two original tracks, including the long-awaited 'Trigonometry', and first class remixes from Cassy and La Fleur. After his recent critically acclaimed sell-out live shows at the Barbican and his 'Out Of Time' EP on Kompakt, not to mention gearing up for his RESISTANCE residency with John Digweed in Ibiza, Sasha officially confirms his debut release on Watergate Records. 'Trigonometry' has been a highlight in Sasha's sets in recent months and has sparked many a heated debate online, from excited pleas for a Track ID, to urgent demands for a release date. The track is as ethereal as it is compelling, constantly building up to the sublime break down and those iconic chords that have left ravers spellbound worldwide. Swedish born Berlin-based La Fleur puts her stamp on the remix, keeping the riff but adding gravitas with a rhythmic bassline. She's fast become a key player on the house and techno circuit, with a string of releases on the likes of Cocoon, Watergate, and Sasha's own Last Night On Earth imprint. 'GameOvr' shows the producer's tougher side; a strong techno track in keeping with Sasha's constant focus on the future, always exploring new directions, though his signature groove is still on board. Revered Panorama Bar resident Cassy, whose stunning album 'Donna' was one of 2016's outstanding releases, turns her hand to remixing the title track, delivering a harder edged driving cut with a heavier kick drum, echoing chords and hypnotic percussion. This EP marks yet another creative landmark in this, one of the most fruitful and exciting phases in Sasha's distinguished career.

Trying to transport that „lost in translation“ (and transit) sense of normal life due to constant motion to a dance floor near you. Euphoric melancholia meets rave romance, shutters open to let happiness crawl in and anxiety turns into excitement through the usual cocktail of tearjerkers and white noise risers. Recorded between Paris, New York, Dublin and London and brought to your city via Running Back. Automatic non stop existential output.
