A3. Things Can’t Go On Like This Forever (Freestyle Mix)
B1. So I Go Dancing (Gerd Janson DJ Remix)
B2. Things Can’t Go On Like This Forever (Freestyle Instrumental)
B3. Things Can’t Go On Like This Forever (Freestyle Beats)

Maximum vocal power and prime time dramatics by Chrissy and Carrie Wilds. The San Francisco based DJ and producer shows his stylistic versatility and technical capability to work with vocals, melodies and sound sources. Like a facsimile of the late 1980s house/freestyle record that you never owned, Things Can’t Go On Like This Forever ticks all the right boxes. Heartfelt vocals (by the great Carrie Wilds): check! Timely social message: check! Melodic euphoria: check! Old school house and true school freestyle flavor: check! Comes in various mixes and with a freestyle bonus beat special.

Additional airtime is given to the now classic Chrissy production So I Go Dancing. Done in a traditional remix fashion by Gerd Janson it highlights all the features of the original and again Carrie‘s enchanting voice, extends the included hysteria and adds a few snare rolls. Let‘s go dancing to brighten the darkness. Dance music in its purest and maybe most US-American form.

A1 Fiesta 2000 (2023 Remaster)
A2. Fiesta 2000 – Sally C Remix
B1. Hitter Mane
B2. Fiesta 2000 – Matisa Remix

Even a pandemic can have its upsides. Fiesta 2000 proves this debatable statement. Conceived by Raphael Schön during a Covid-19 lockdown and originally released in 2021 as part of I’ll Be The Energy on Freeride Millenium (*thanks, guys! Ed.), it is one of those godsend tracks that cannot be duplicated, recreated or planned. The prohibition of any kind of hedonism, the yearning for collective pleasure, post-teenage-angst and rave romanticism all make up this delicious cocktail. Now served again on the Running Back subsidiary Misfit Melodies and freshly remastered, it is a hard one to put down.

Especially, since it has been supplemented with the just as charming tearjerker Hitter Mane: melancholic, hopeful and motivating in equal parts. The original of Fiesta 2000 is also backed up by remixes from Matisa respectively Sally C (who directed Gerd Janson’s attention to the track in the first place). Both brilliant in their own right, Matisa shifts the track into turbo-mode that will please the ruff necks amongst you, while Sally C brings off the feat of uniting pumping house, breakbeats and balearic piano moments in one go. Fiesta forever and ever ever!

A1. Modern Romance (Dusky Remix)
A2. Modern Romance (Dusky Dub)
A3. Modern Romance (Bella Boo Remix)
B1. Modern Romance (Ryan Elliott Remix)
B2. Modern Romance (Ryan Elliott Instrumental)

Release Info:
No business, like show business; The happy pill that was the Catz ‘N Dogz liaison with Gerd Janson gets a remix treatment. Dusky, Bella Boo and Ryan Elliott put their respective and requested stamps on Modern Romance.

Ladies first: Bella Boo takes the upbeat piano house of the original into a deeper sphere. A square bass, a catchy marimba hook and some vocal sprinkles make for the aural equivalent of salted caramel. Next up are everyone’s favourite peak time sweepers Dusky who open the gates to the rave. Heavily influenced by the ingredients of the proto UK bass scenery (breakbeats, ragga bass sounds, life-affirming vocals) they place Modern Romance somewhere between N-Joi and Shut Up and Dance. If that is too much for you to swallow, Ryan Elliott might have the remedy. Ostgut Ton’s „best dressed chicken in town“delivers a sleek translation that is neat as a pin and wears the influence of his hometown Detroit proudly on the sleeve. „Help me find out, what I like…“

A1. Lille Vals (Original Mix)
A2. Lille Vals (Gerd Janson Talamanca Dub)
B1. Lille Vals (Patrick Topping Remix)
B2. Lille Vals (Ajaks Remix)

Shortinfo:

Storken’s „Lille Vals“ is among those type of infectious and addictive instrumentals that feel like songs without words, pop without divas or perfectly synthesized disco. Being the debut of a young and promising man from Sweden as, it received candid praise by dancers and DJs alike.
Originally „Lille Vals“ appeared as the centerpiece of Running Back’s One-swallow-sampler series, it earned its second spring on a dedicated 12inch release. Although still as much fun as the first time around, Storken’s precious little diamond gets a threepart remix treatment to season the dish. His fellow Ajaks offers a stripped down ans mesmerizing take that should make minimalists allergic sufferers of melodies happy. Newcastle’s power house Patrick Topping pulls out one of his tricks to beam it into his own world and brings out all the big elements to make it even – yes – bigger. Finally, Gerd Janson does the opposite and dubs out the highs and lows of the original to meet Augustus Pablo and Daniele Baldelli somewhere uptown.

A1. Modern Romance (Original Mix)
A2. Modern Romance (Instrumental)
B1. Modern Romance (Club Mix)
B2. Modern Romance (Gerd Janson’s Club Dub)

Shortinfo:
Despite all its terrible tragedies and hardships, the whole disaster that is 2020 has had its positive sides. One might have been Danny Howard’s Radio 1 Lockdown link up. The idea behind it: bring artists together that have never worked together due to time, place or opportunity. So when the dice were tossed for possible collaborations, you might want to think they were loaded.
The Catz ‘n Dogz liaison with Gerd Janson is just that obvious - as is the result. „Modern Romance“ translates to upbeat dance music that neither shies away from vocals nor pianos and is practically the antidote to any foul mood. Or as Gerd likes to put it: „The whole thing was already laid out by the dance music masters that are Catz ’n Dogz. All I had to do was to ask Mark Barrott to help out with some piano work and finish an arrangement. Voilá!“ House music that will sound as great in clubs and parties as it will on treadmills, or on your favorite means of transportation as it does on airwaves and did so on Danny Howards Radio 1 edition.

A1. Grouse
A2. Defy Me
B1. Revel
B2. Pang

Shortinfo:
The Helium Robots appearance on the Running Back subsidiary Misfit Melodies with one of their finest narratives so far. Subdued Neo trance and indie dance for fans of bicep curls and the border communities of yore. Or to use the words of the creator: The Grouse approaches, intent on witnessing Helium Robots release the ghouls and demons from their machines. What potent mix can this mean? Channeling the raw energy of their 2018 track Sly on Running Back, the monolithic baselines and surging, dense forces of Defy Me and The Grouse itself unfurl from the speakers. To mop fevered brows after those torrents, the alchemy changes to create the fuzzy warmth and bounce of Pang. Playful vocal samples flicker and weave through the chords, giving way to the final melodic flow of Revel. And we're done. The Grouse, unruffled, proudly turns and stalks away…

B2. Never

Shortinfo:
With the second record for Misfit Melodies and the fourth for the Running Back universe, Robert Dietz solidifies and hones his very own sound.
Heartfelt and emotive, a slice of lovers acid works as the prelude to an EP of IDM patterns, classic house tropes and something that is as much fun as it is funky. "Great Hormones at Bed Time" owes the same amount of money to Detroit as it does to Frankfurt am Main. Definitely no lullabies here.

Short info:
A warehouse jive for number 5 on Running Back's Misfit Melodies series. Introducing new artist and shrinking violet Pistachio, "Ilox" cuts house music out of a techno cloth and vice versa. One of three direct cuts between chord memories, distant voices and space echoes, complemented by a drone piece for the times before, after and in-between. Classic soundscapes with a modern drive. Nutritious as a nut.

Short info:
Some things just get better with age. House Grooves Vol. 1 mark a part in history, where a young Move D felt ignited by the classic house music sounds of the day.
Strict rhythms and nu grooves forged masterful networks with bleeps and clonks, pianos helped synthesizing dopamine and the phuture was wide open. "House Grooves Vol.1" embodies that special time and place with a bunch of vintage tracks saved from the abyss.

Respectfully edited and dusted with gloves, it features Move D's sought-after magic moment "I Gave My Love", a collaboration with Mannheim's house hero See-Base, the bass line swing of "Babyphonk" and a breakbeat-led remix by Shan & Gerd Janson that tries to sound like it could have happened back them.

The bottom line is: the past can make the future feel at home.

Tracklist EP: A1. Uneasy Me. Uneasy Me (Aril Brikhas Sleazy Me Mix) B2. Gymnastics 411
"Uneasy Me" signals the first artist to feature original music on Art of Vengeance. Australia's electronic export, Christian Vance, delivers a title track with both tension and dancefloor romance. Pursuing a restless path, the rhythm and melody come together like an intimate rendezvous caught in the headlights late at night. Drum machine meets synthesizer, unresolved and unrestrained. Aril Brikha's "Sleazy Me" remix resonates the original for a later hour, driving the energy deeper never to see the light of day. The B side "Gymnastics 411" is all about the fun that happens afterwards. Inspired, spirited and a little out of hand.

A1. Venus (Sebastian Mullaert Remix Phaze One)
A2. Venus (Sebastian Mullaert Remix Phaze Two)
B. U Special feat. JAW (Brett Johnson Remix)

Short info:
Swiss DJ & producer, Mirko Loko, continued to indulge in his intergalactic persuasions on last year's long player "Comet Plan". Released on Cadenza, Mirko's second album was enthusiastically received and picked up many fans for its collection of blissfull and wide-eyed electronica and techno sounds. Featured guests on the album included dOP's vocalist, JAW, and Francesco Tristano.

12 months on, and "Comet Plan" gets revisited and remixed by two stellar names from the electronic dance community.

Sebastian Mullaert is well known for partnership with Marcus Henriksson as Minilogue, the Swedish duo responsible for killer albums & singles for the likes of Cocoon, Silver Planet and Wagon Repair. Mullaert plumps for a solo remix of "Venus" of epic proportions, split into two versions; "Phaze One" and "Phaze Two". An organic trip through the cosmos, Mullaert tweaks and teases over two seductively trippy versions, showing us a master class in minimal electronics.

Hailing from Dallas, Brett Johnson has become synonymous with masterful jackin house music via singles for Derrick Carter's Classic, DJ Sneak's Magnetic, Freerange and Visionquest. Brett tackles "U Special" featuring JAW, and turn in a very tasty Remix and Instrumental version. Soulful, spacey and groovy in equal doses, Brett delivers the goods in abundance on these mixes.

A tight remix package that bows respectfully to Mirko's original visions, and a timely reminder, to the uninitiated, to check out the album for further inspection.

Tracklist: A1. Happy A2. Heaven Knows B. Diver Down
A re-issue that never was! Three tracks long lost and forgotten in Roman Flügel's vast DAT archive have now been unearthed and made available for the first time. Very much in tune with the on-going deep house fest, Roman F. shows that he has already been there 18 years ago.

"Happy" light-footed follows a piano heavy path led by a disco loop, while "Heaven Knows" makes use of an angelic organ. "Diver Down" is the second ever Holy Garage track (look up "Surprise") is a collaboration with Flügel's old partner Jörn Elling Wuttke (Alter Ego, Sensorama, Acid Jesus) and some serious deep dubby house business. Wildpitchparadisegaragemusic! Housed in limited 10" super sleeves with happy paintings by Hamburg's Chrossi.

As the evenings close in, JPLS makes a timely return with more dark, brooding electronics. This year has already seen the release of the Twilite LP, establishing him as one of the leading exponents of 21st century conceptual techno; this time round however, there are a few subtle shifts of emphasis. The beats are tougher for one, plus there’s a distinct acid flavour to the proceedings but the tracks still retain that otherworldly appeal that defines his productions. Listening to JPLS is like catching your reflection in a broken mirror. The urgent repetition of Fuckshuf fle seems to exist in a million different places at once while the bubbling acid bass worms itself into your head, scribbling odd patterns of thought across your subconscious that slowly dissolve like smoke rings.
