BIRDS OF A FEATHER

GET EATEN TOGETHER!



Beat Pharmacy - Strangers (Featuring Spaceape)

DALI

REVISITED?


Seth Troxler - Aphrika

ARTIFICIAL

OVERSTIMULATION.

STARE

BEARS.



Mohlao - Individual

Meanwhile Records have been putting out some amazing music lately. First, A Moment's Peace by Bvdub, and now this ambient driven techno work of the same vein. I'm really looking forward to what 2009 has in store for this label.

ANATOMY

OF A SOMNAMBULIST.



Tony Lionni - Free Your Mind

CROWDED

WATERS.


Artwork by Allison Sommers

Almost forgot to insert some music in this post, but I think this will be worth the wait; German techno remixes American deep house with interesting results.


Kerri Chandler - Pong (Ben Klock's Bones and Strings Rework)

SHENANIGANS.

DJ Jus-Ed - Unbelievably Beautiful

HOOD

CRAZY.



Acidrain - Next Stop

The Swiss produce some well-designed music. This is off the Mostly Covered In Clouds quasi-full length put out back in 2004; great early hours listening.

MOSCA

HISPANA.



James Braun - Spanish Fly

Do yourself a favor and pick up this release; a cool fusion of house/techno/dubstep.

ROOSTER

4PIE.



Spencer Parker - e Lucia (Original Mix) [RapidShare Link]

Tsuba Records is another relatively new label that I'm pretty high on; boasting a stable of artists including Zoo Brazil, Milton Jackson, Audiofly, Danton Eeprom, and Motorcitysoul.

PLAYGROUND

KISSES.


Jamie Lloyd - May I? (Quarion Remix) [RapidShare Link]

BALT

AMOUR.



Mr. G-Makes No Sense (Radio Slave's Shaking The Trees Remix)

ICE CREAM

PEOPLE.



Move D - Heidelberg Gals Parts One Two and Three

WELL

DESIGNED.


Pierre LX - Gabita

Although a new producer in terms of released work, be on the look out for Pierre LX stuff on Initial Cuts. Pierre brings a fresh, meticulous, and deeply melodic approach to contemporary dance music.

OBEY

GRENADES.

Justin Imperiale - Drums of Steel

Deep house producer Justin Imperiale blows away past work on Cabana Recordings with his new Drums of Steel EP. A deep Afro flavored tribal groove spiced with jungle snippets and a lush steel vibe make this track a burner.

WATERS

MEETING.



Luciano and Mirko Loko - Mousa Big Band

TRIBAL

SHAKEDOWN.


Liapin - Redskin

Connect Four Records is putting out some seriously good music. This is a stellar track with a tribal chanting, congos, bongos and whatever other elements a fantastic house trip requires.

TECH

KNOWLOGY.


Milton Jackson - Crash (Original Mix)

GROOVE

ELECTRIQUE.

Apparat - Contradiction (Lusine remix)[Z-Share]

My favorite track off the remix album of Apparat's 'Duplex' by Ghostly International's Lusine.

Lusine will be making an appearance in Baltimore this Sunday at The Hexagon, one of Baltimore's collaborative quasi-diy spaces that seem to be popping up with slightly more frequency. Peep the flyer.
