Review: Rising stars of the Berlin tech house scene and charted by the Von Strokes and the Dubfires, AKA AKA return with Ich & Du, another EP of odd minimal grooves for Oli Koletzki's label Stil vor Talent. The title track has a typically smooth jacking groove with a perfect build, aided and abetted by some distinctive vocals from Umani. Originally released on Koletzki's digital Talent offshoot last year"4 Fauste fur ein Hallelulja" takes a step up and impresses with sub bass stabs and bulging kick drums rubbing up against neat vocal edits and the peculiar sound of someone getting a kicking. Finishing off is the Latin guitar tinged filtered techno strangeness of "Sandpiper" where a looped vocal collides wonderfully with a sampled beat box and a chunky kick.

Review: If you're going to base a release around samples, it is only fair to make the best and cleverest uses out of your chosen source material. It's an approach that Bruch & Junior have adopted on "Runway", and it pays dividends. The title track is a firing percussive affair, but the soulful vocal sample lends it a soulful, old school feeling that so many contemporary 'tool' tracks lack. Likewise "Seat No Fastbelt", which revolves around another familiar vocal sample, while the organ solo on "Whatcha Want" is reminiscent of Jaydee's classic "Plastic Dreams". Best of the lot though is "Jazzbians", which samples a jazz piano solo that is then filtered and looped, building gradually through the arrangement until it becomes the focal point. A job well done.

Played by: Juno Recommends Minimal/Tech House

Review: The cover art makes reference to the children's classic story about a little girl chasing a white rabbit, and there's certainly a sense of the surreal about this release. "Scope" is a pulsing underground house groove, its grungy bassline and muffled but insistent bassline making for the perfect accompaniment for those 'lost it' moments on the dance floor. "Evil" is another malevolent track, but this time, grainy riffs and jagged percussive licks that accompany the tub thumping, rolling drums. "Feelings" features a rolling, tribal groove and is more laid back than the first two tracks as a funk guitar sample and sensuous disco strings prevail. "Delight" is cut from a similar cloth, and its sax stabs and deep chords underpin an infectious 'hey hey' vocal sample.

Upyo (feat Jon Hester) - (7:04) 125 BPM

from $1.49

Review: Like so many of his minimal contemporaries, Dapayk Solo aka Niklas Worgt has attempted to move from stripped back rhythms into more soulful house territories. However, unlike most of his peers, Worgt is one of the few artists who has successfully achieved this transition. It is evident on Let Go, where the dense drums and insane squealing sax of "Upyo" recalls classic Derrick Carter and the airy strings and rolling groove on "Nekan" has echoes of late 90s London tech-house. The best indictment of Worgt's shift is the title track, where hissing percussion and insistent chord builds show a rawness lacking in nearly all nouveau deep house productions.

Review: Edu Imberon dips his toes into the waters of pop music on "Inside". The bassline is lazy but somewhat malevolent and is supported by thundering claps and a sweeping synth that divebombs in over the arrangement like a hungry flock of seagulls. Yet despite this resolutely underground backing, Imbernon makes space for Triumph's breathy, androgynous vocals and a trippy synth that oozes melodies. The remixes push "Inside" to a poppy place; Kellerkind's version contains a fluid electro bassline and some spacey synths, with the vocal turned into an effortlessly narcotic experience, while the Niko Schwind version has a distinctly 80s flavour thanks to its 808 drums and new romantic synths.

Review: It sounds like Stil Vor Talent have a big hit on their hands. In its original format, Dogs is dominated by a reflective piano line, breathy female vocal claiming that 'you've made your bed now lie in it', and a warm, rich bass. Hvob has managed to achieve that rare feat of mixing live elements with housey grooves without the end result coming across like a shambolic mess. The label has also commissioned some club-friendly but respectful remixes. The Niko Schwind version focuses on the vocals and plaintive pianos, underpinning them with loose, tribal beats, while Oliver Koletzki's version also pushes these elements to the fore. On that occasion however, the groove is more rolling and tinged with a hint of niggling acid.

Review: It sounds like the German label could have a big hit on their hands here. "Awake" is a subtle fusion of the Kompakt shuffle and German minimal house traditions, as doubled up drums bring subtle acoustic guitar flourishes and Blomqvist's falsetto to a climax. Meanwhile "Something Says" comes across like Superpitcher in more grounded form than usual thanks to its heavy claps and bubbling bassline. However, it's the title track that may well enter the pop charts. Starting ff with stripped back beats, it progresses to reveal a breathy vocal, draped by beautiful piano and lush strings. Blomqvist's tones are understated and androgynous, but "Ink" has an intangible, magical quality that will endear it to a wider audience.

Review: Has Stil Vor Talent gone back in time? On the evidence of Backflash, it sounds like it. The original version is based on a spacey groove and pulsing rhythms, with shiny synths bouncing off the loose groove. It's about as cosmic as contemporary house music gets. Niko Schwind's take is more conventional sounding, but he also uses a breathy vocal intoning the mantra 'got to get it' and a teased out rhythm to create a similar effect. "Disco Light" and "Down To" are more contemporary sounding, but there are also references to the past, in the shape of the Chicago claps on the former and the sensuous disco strings on the latter.

Review: "Caje" looks set to provide Alexander Gerlach and Sascha Hirtenfellner's Nicone project with its biggest hit to date. Revolving around the simplest idea, its rolling, filtered tech-house groove underpins Narra's unforgettable vocal. The label should also be commended for the catch-all appeal of the remixes: Adam Port's take is more drum-heavy than the original and its insistent bassline will prove popular with tool house DJs. Pan Pot meanwhile, deliver a version that updates the classic Lil Louis sound, its building chords and subtle filters including snippets of the original vocal and guaranteeing its effectiveness, while the Dirty Doering take is targeted at underground DJs, its panning tunnel of acid-flecked sounds ideal for fans of James Ruskin and Mike Parker.

from $1.49

Played by: Moonbeam, Space Ranger

Review: This German label may be associated with minimal and trancey Germanic house, bt this release shows that it is concerned with documenting a far wider set of sounds. "Love Me" is a captivating serving of narco-house, its acid-soaked fiters and shimmering chords sounding all the more alluring as the vocal asks the question 'how do you want me to have trust?' By contrast, Oliver Kotzletzki's take on "Liar" goes back to the 80s to revive electro funk basslines and poppy synths, while the Dan Caster remix of "Run Away" is a plaintive, piano-led groove. If there is one recurring sound however, it is the darker, moodier end of house and the rolling rhythms of Florian Meindl's take on "Little Love" bears this out.

Review: It sounds like German label Stil Vor Talent have a late contender for house release of 2012 on their hands. "Rej Senhor" evolves from a stripped back groove into a warm, full-blooded Latino affair, its sensuous guitar playing underpinning Narra's sensuous, velvety vocals. But that's not all: "Cold World" (which sonically speaking, sounds the opposite of its title) features a dusty bass and seductive piano keys that roll in, both melancholic and strangely uplifting at the same time. Finally, "Raoui" may not be the most immediate track, but it's this writer's favourite due to its loose, live clapping, subtle acoustic guitar strumming and a spine-tingling vocal delivered in an obscure language.
