JIONY // 2 Voices [RU:08]

Ruter Music is slowly becomming one of my favourite netlabels. The Mexico City based label provides high quality electronic music for the dancefloor as well as for listening at home. They describe their styles as “off-beat house & hypnotic techno”.
Another talented artist they present is Jiony. Voices is a deep and soulful minimal / tech house EP with perfect remixes.

MIKE V // Ven A Mi EP [KRN016]


Here come’s another fine release by the Mexican Label Kreativa Records. MikeV from Juarez / El Paso seems to be a talented offspring and provides a competent deep house / minimal ep. Sergio Soroa’s Remix is a bomb.

FLOATING MIND // M3 [monoKraK 23]


Floating Mind (Roberto Vitali) is making electronic music for ten years, now. Always searching for deep and groovy sounds, he founded the netlabel MonoKraK Records in 2006. He’s releasing also on other netlabels. He aims for releasing only on netlabels, because he wants to stay outside the music business, in order to be free for producing what he really like. Without any restrictions. Likeable.

ALBERTO SANTIZZO // Groovielaugh EP [unfound51]


Alberto Santizzo is a Guatemalan living in Mexico already with a bunch of releases under his belt. On Unfoundsound, he delivers Groovielaugh EP – four deep, off-kilter tech-house jams with an experimental edge fueled by groovy rhythms, nifty basslines, witty vocal cuts and warms synth stabs. These tracks are heady, pleasantly twisted and very dj-friendly. Play them at the party. Play them in your car. Play them on your ipod. And watch your evening flow and flow.”

MOTOR // Mammoth [FRAG011]


I decided to start with this nice album released by the russian netlabel Fragment in 2006. The releases of this label where my first contact to the netlabel scene. Especially “Mammoth” by Motor (Vadim Ougrioumov from Moscow) impressed me a lot. Still in 2010, it’s a brilliant release.

Vadim Ougrioumov runs the netlabel Top 40, which is focussed more on experimental sounds and field recordings as well as Quiet Zone, oriented on ultra-minimalism, radical experiments with “volume at zero” music.
