Be his guest

"Housemeister is flying high over Berlin, filling the gaps between Techno, Electro and punk. He likes his very own definition of dancefloor craze. After 12 years as dj, his first productions were released in 2002. He released his first album 2006 on Boysnoize Records. “Enlarge Your Dose” reflects his intense life as a master-raver as well as his hilarious brain-twisting humour. The rebel without a pause finds himself well positioned on Bpitchcontrol, Boysnoize Recordsand his ALLYOUCANBEAT label."

Le berlinois est fait pour le dancefloor : un son incisif, puissant, tapageur, bestial. Des similitudes avec Boys Noize et Modeselektor mais pas une pâle copie : Housemeister fait monter sa propre mayonnaise. 

Après être passé par Bpitch Control et Boysnoize Records c'est sur son propre label, All You Can Beat, que Martin Böhm aka Housemeister a sorti son deuxième album Who Is That Noize? datant de 2008 sur lequel on découvre le terrible "In order to dance" en écoute ci-dessous. Second track en écoute : "Famous" sorti l'été dernier.

Techno Trash

Here the track Quasimodo produced by Modek plus 2 tracks remixed by the Belgium artist.

"Starting off with little knowledge of electronical genres, Modek soon realised just how complex it was to make those tracks that made dance halls blow apart. Very soon, he plunged himself into the electronic scene and became a huge fan of producers and DJs of the likes of SebastiAn, Justice, Erol Alkan, Boys Noize, etc.

Today, Modek’s tracks are being picked up and supported by a lot of Djs all around the world. With releases on respected labels such as Mental Groove and Dim Mak and a spot on the WKA roster, he keeps growing and expanding his fan base and is ready to take over Europe and the world!"

Electronic (atmo)spheres

Le Lyonnais Sébastien Devaud est de retour avec un album très attendu et qui ne déçoit pas.

Impermanence, le troisième album d'Agoria a été produit avec la collaboration de Carl Craig, Seth Troxler, Kid A et Scalde.

Agoria - Little Shaman (Featuring Scalde)

"Five years after the "Green Armchair", InFiné is proud to announce the release of Agoria´s Impermanence this week in France and in the rest of Europe all over February. When we started the adventure four years ago, we knew the shadow of Sebastien Devaud would guide us into the electronic spheres. We feel today that we have reached a new level of maturity with the release of his third album.

With “Impermanence”, Agoria has created an album that is at the same time constantly changing while also having a unique flow and mood of its own. While the range and sensibility of his productions still cover a wide and varied musical spectrum, his command of contrasts proves to be even more refined than ever; it comes within reach of a near-perfect balance between cold and warm atmospheres, light and dark, mind and guts. « Before, my music often felt dark and maybe a bit forced. This time I just let things happen and everything just fell in its right place », he says."

Here is new album glimpse:

Italian Sound System

Minicoolboyz - Rimmer Man (Marka T remix)

"MiniCoolBoyz  is from Milano, Italy. Born in 1984, Mike and Raphael discovered electronic music in 2000. They began following italian nightlife and participating in the most important european festivals such as "I Love Techno" in Belgium and "Timewarp" in Germany. During those travels abroad they discovered the magical feeling between Djs and the crowd. Growing up, they began to appreciate new sounds, expecially for the ones created by the techno guru Richie Hawtin, aka Plastikman. 

Mike and Raphael changed deeply their musical tastes: their current style is a minimal techno music with with detroit and tech-house influences. In 2006 a new project appeared: MiniCoolBoyz "

This track was remixed by Marka T aka Gianluca Marcati, fromVenezia, Italy.
