next big killer / incl robag wruhme remix , decks tipp

for record store day 2016, we thought of what to release to be special and decided a remix ep would be something good.

for the next release on souvenir, the label dips into the past of almost 30 years ago to retrieve this forgotten souvenir of the times, dusting off and rejuvenating section 25s classic, desert, taken from the album, from the hip on manchesters infamous factory records.

familiar friends of the label, french duo jules & moss return to tiefschwarzs ever-reliable souvenir imprint with another stomping two-tracker designed for those late nights and early mornings. situated at the very centre of a musical centrifuge, french duo jules & moss find themselves drawing upon an array of different influences spanning rock, jazz, classical but landing somewhere firmly rooted in the electronic spectrum.

french producer david k is ready to announce his debut album, out of range, an off-the-radar mixture of romantic melodies on drugs, rocking beats a la parisienne, and sounds to turn you on, released on tiefschwarzs ever reliable imprint, souvenir.

following on from their room-crushing, latin-afro-infused el matematico ep on katermukke in 2013, seasoned veterans returns holger zilske and kai preussner (aka smash tv) return to tiefschwarzs consistently exceptional souvenir label and get down to business with three brawny, burning-hot grooves infused with their signature flavour on robogeisha.

david k represents something thats all too rare in electronic music today: an artist who makes music first and club music second. for him, emotion is paramount, melody is important, the pop format has its perks and original material is always better than a sample. late at night and early in the morning he dances alone in his studio, tapping away on his keyboards and throwing together arrangements on the fly (a pianist by training, he cant bear to make music slouched over a mouse). his only goal is to make something that will keep himself dancing.

whether he is headlining at nightclubs or playing a marathon set for an underground afterhours event, elon has a key asset in shaping new yorks vibrant underground music scene.

hot off the heels of mixing the thirteenth instalment of berlin nightclub, watergates long-standing mix series, ruede (real name tobias) hagelstein returns with an alien invasion, space-history themed three track ep for tiefschwarzs ever-reliable imprint, souvenir music.

kennys new ep for souvenir keeps in line with his unique, interstellar sound two quirky, eccentric cosmic cuts which stand unparalleled by other producers right now. both tracks on the single recall something of the balearic euphoria of todd terjes recent output as well as making humble references to the pumping analogue bass of italo and more rigid early 80s electronic explorations

as an artist, christian burkhardt, is not content with existing within the realms of house and techno, but is determined to further stretch its limits with his signature sound originally from heidelberg, germany, he has carved out his own unique path in production, something which perfectly evident on send the money back.

since 2004 chris wood has been working as a successful producer and remixer for labels including souvenir, below, kindisch, murmur, bechosen or levelnonzero and in 2009 he started working with his long-time friend, fellow producer and co-owner of freebase records in frankfurt, meat (carsten schuchmann).

the mysterious duo strangers in heaven strike back on souvenir! after their first highly acclaimed release last year and their remix of souvenir bosses, tiefschwarz, the boys return with a strong two tracker. first track, set me free, is a deep groover which features jonny cruzs incredibly melodic voice. the same track gets a decidedly deeper once over from none other than, eric volta (ellum, visionquest). on the flip, the future is a miami bass vs. techno tune with some real old school house feeling injected into it, featuring the unmistakable voice of the wondrous navid izadi(wolf+lamb, soulclap).

our next ep is the first release from strangers in heaven, the new side-project from a duo of established producers who for now wish to remain nameless. both berlin-based, this pair have cooked up this new alter ego in order to release music with more upbeat, vocal heavy work, with more of an eye to pop sensibilities.

souvenir records proudly presents the return of our brother captains, tiefschwarz, with a murky new single featuring the vocal athletics of the inimitable argenis brito

souvenir is proud to present the follow up to last years in the city compilation. this time round, we are using it as a way of presenting some of the newer talents to have been introduced to the souvenir stable. the track provided by athenian and rhythmetic records label boss cj jeff, is an upfront cover of the the 89 uk hip house anthem dirty cash from the adventures of stevie v.

souvenir is proud to present its 44th ep from a duo of frankfurts favourite sons, chris wood and carsten meat schuchmann. both chris and carsten have come up through frankfurts music scene, chris with his long time residency at the infamous monza club and carsten having started the citys premier record shop freebase, still going strong 18years later. trained as a studio engineer, chris cut his chops under the wise wings of pascal feos and joinedforces with meat, who held residencies at cocoon and robert johnson. last year they dropped the mighty triple s on souvenir, which destroyed dance floors as far afield as sao paolo to ibiza.

souvenir present their 42nd release from one a young producer who is very dear to our hearts, marius maier, better known as re.you

tiefschwarz beckon you to dominate my sensation with their latest single on the boys own souvenir. and with its booty-shaking, bass-bumpin funky house vibe, its ripe for the plucking on dancefloors across the world. the title track kicks things off with a dual attack of bass and hi-hat, urging us into its insistent groove. then it takes a firmer hold with its sultry vocals, shaking us around a bit in the process. with the carnivalesque atmosphere of seamy summers in rio, we welcome a funky percussive workout into the mix while a synthline squiggles around us. the breaks saucy vocal instructs us to allow entry into our very own adventure, percussion building to peak levels. lost in the moment, none can resist this kick, and bodies are lost in a dizzying swirl. b-sides include an energetic reimagining from the labels very own frankfurters, chris wood and meat, fresh from their recent smash triple s ep on souvenir and pascal feos & frank leicher manage to dial up the sleaze quotient, murking out the bassline and distorting the vocal.

ruede hagelstein wants it all, and not just that jazz. the berlin producer, known for his productions that straddle the boundary between house on techno, released on labels like souvenir and upon you records, will release his debut album soft pack together with his band, the noblettes on november 18, 2011. a priori is the first track on the indie-electronic lp, and cannot claim itself free from jazz influences. with piano, a horn section, and brushed snares, the track swings with the best of them. since ruedes vocals also require something a little more dancefloor-friendly, this digital appetizer will be served up with a remix from the man himself. the vinyl will follow with remixes from guillaume & the coutu dumonts, noir and tiefschwarz.

the rapidly evolving scene thats happening out in russia allows for the kind of collaboration between artists of highly different fields, as is the case here. arram mantana, tripmastaz and roustam are three producers of different ilk, who have joined in this special case for their debut ep out on souvenir records

thomas feriero, aka avatism, brings his >thought patterns< to souvenir this fall season. and just as autumn is, the ep inspires a feeling that only the cool moist nostalgic night time air of autumn can bring.

zeitlos, a german word meaning timeless is one way to describe chris wood & meats new ep, triple s. this is house of a different flavor, pulling influences from freestyle jazz and funk. we find ourselves late in the night. we enter triple s, a smoky cool atmosphere, relaxed and ready. light percussion leads us into the back, where a lone wandering bass line takes the stage. the simmer of hi hats and trample of toms usher in the kicks. chugging along, a single jazz flute, and sassy women punch through the fog. the strings rise and the bass sinks into the cellar. downplayed with style and elegance, triple s is the perfect track for half past midnight, opening the gates and pouring your body on to the dancefloor.

hardly strangers to the scene, daniel bortz & sascha silber give what could very well be the summer hit of 2011. the 2 track ep titled >color of love/fantasy< is incredibly effective in creating a smooth late summer feel, perfect for open air nights. straight kicks, crunchy snares, and pressed hi hats, a bassline bounces next to the deep kicks

true to form, souvenir are back with a snappy summertime release perfectly hinged & ready for sweeping the dancefloors. souvenir 036 various artists features lewis boardman & maher daniel blending their sounds, and converging on this ep for some magnificent effects. the a side starts out with daniel - he is a new, but solid name amongst the techno-gambit, having released on labels such as get physical & bedrock, as well as on souvenir. while his remix workings of >rumblefish< earned him a 2 1/2 month long-spot as number one on the techno charts. with >here and now< with dark, driving techno that sounds like its been made inside of a blazing house-fire. burning & singed, the the layers fall heavy upon one another - with a penetrating dancefloor deep-ness to the bass. next up, >icaros< on the inside a track…spins a dark & deep nighttime soundscape, deep into the depths of a jungle somewhere. a distant & hollow vocal of a tribesman hums hauntingly in the distance, with a severe & driving bassline to make you run like a scared little raver deep into the jungle. on the b side, boardman takes over, one of the uks newest talents - recently remixing for nina kraviz & yousef - with >tranquilizer,< on b2 is quite a minimal retreat…with some intergalactic space-fight sounds thrown into the mix, alongside the rolling bass, and chug-chugging. b2 enters the title track, >the broken is beautiful.< a nice, chugging bass-line meets a ethereal chopped up vocal, carefully flowing in & out of the bass-line….to meet up strong midway thru the breakdown

souvenirs kid-brother, re.you - is all grown up & showing of his muscle. having previously worked with his brother phillipp with remixes under their belts for &me, turntablerockers and m.in. - now under his own guise he brings a new danceable creepiness to the label as he partners up with hometown hero, rampa of souvenir & keine music - well-rounded producer & dj extraordinaire, versed in the sways of shake - for the >our thing ep<. re.you grabs the a side on his own…with a rework of >ghost< by hamburg duo phantom/ghost - with a haunting vocal that is foggy & vague >relax…its only the ghost…< - matched with excellent guitar underpinnings, and a strong percussive sway…distant & smoky, >ghost< does the trick. the b side brings rampa & re.you together for >awareness< a deep, dark track with a chugging bassline and a heavy, syrup-soaked vocal

with the release of ruede hagelsteins >emergerncy< souvenir released one of the floorfillers of 2010: >emergency< has been hailed as one of the best singles of the year in the reader polls of groove, de:bug, resident advisor and many more. no wonder why! ruede hagelstein knows how to treat an after-party stomper. >emergency< is the perfect early morning pick, the sun shines on his bongos, the nonsense raves with his lyrics, the horns roar with delight, and a plane flies over a crowd of happy, sleepless dancers. due to popular demand for this record souvenir now brings you this fabulous tune once again, remixed super flu and re.you. re.you once again proves why souvenir loves his music with his outstanding remix and super flu who are feliks thielemann & mathias schwarz perfectly proove their philosophy: >lots of herzblut and a great traum behind, nothing can harm you anymore….!<

the whistler has been one of the secreat weapons of djs such as sven väth, loco dice and dubfire in 2010. comes with remixes by nic fanciulli and &me + rampa and releases a white label vinyl limited to 300 copies

2010 has been a very intense year for tiefschwarz! having released their new album chocolate on their own label imprint souvenir in may, they played a heavy schedule of dj and live gigs all over the world and released >more chocolate< and >melted chocolate<: a fine series of productions and remixes inspired by the original album release. >melted chocolate 3< completes the series and brings the “chocolate year 2010< to a beautiful ending with remixes by: reboot, bruno pronsato and marcus meinhardt

philipp >santé< maier has made some crucial intrusions on souvenir: almost a brother-in-law for ali and basti schwarz, he has been fine-tuning tiefschwarz latest album >chocolate< , plugged the power to their new live-act and contributed daily to the good-working order of the imprint at kremmerer straße. as a producer on his own, philipp has got the soul as well as the muscles, two elements perfectly combined, which have made his live-sets one of the most exciting performances of the current berlin scene.

tiefschwarz and souvenir records proudly present: tiefschwarz >melted chocolate 1<. no summer break for tiefschwarz!

for the third instalment of the always-qualitative various artists collection, ali and basti have found some treasures among the freshest demos of their closest friends from berlin, ruede hagelstein and re.you. not so surprisingly, this souvenir n°28 has the creative energy and the diversity of a successful party weekend in the german capital.

please welcome one of the most promising dutch artists on souvenir027, onno. a one-way ticket to india awaits you with the a-side, >bombay palace<. onno is storming the dance-floors with mystic vocals layered with club friendly drums and beats. a must have crowd pleaser for the early sunshine of the day! daniel sanchez (remote area, 100% pure) flies the original direct to chicago - encompassing spacey and vocoded vocal sounds. he genially injects soulful elements into >bombay palace< and turns it into a stellar skyscraper rooftop for >8 minutes of love…< - deep deep deep! on the flipside, onno delivers with >chants< - dizzying on the forefront, all driven by cosmic waves and stomping drums - a singular piece of electronically modified funk. sante happened to be onnos first remixer of choice for the track - a great choice, as he infuriates the original with what the tech-house genre offers best, turning it into a devastating peak-time take. well done!

kremenerstrasse in prenzlauer berg, north-east berlin, five hundreds meters away from the mauerpark, not far from the flea market of arkonaplatz and the famous kastanienallee, right there stands the souvenir office. just a quick guided tour for you! the kitchen shared with the boys of turntable rockers has the best café latte of the street, and with entertainers of the likes of ali and basti, you always get extra spices (and funny anecdotes) with your meal. just book your table in advance. next-door, you will find the souvenir studio, the audio empire of philipp “santé . behind a two-meter-high wall of machines, surrounded by computers screens and synthesizers, you can imagine him working away on some funky keynotes and well-chosen kettledrums with ali and basti. it may well be stomping and uplifting but there’s still something missing… that little extra something, which turns this new tfschwrz track into a breath-taking floor filler comes from the office at the end of the corridor. where hundreds of 12? records collected by tiefschwarz over the years are stored and also where retty works, the jokester of souvenir, the good mood behind the desk of souvenir booking and the good moves behind the decks of souvenir’s dj booths. retty is otherwise known as the whistler

>find me< is the first single to be taken from the new album and features the berlin-based artist cassy, who is considered to be one of the most distinguished and well-regarded artists in the electronic music scene, due to her dj residency at the world-famous panorama bar and her collaborations with artists like steve bug, ricardo villalobos, luciano, swayzak and many more.

creative energy of berlin, the duo defines its music as future retro avantgarde electroacoutic funky melancholic harmonical pop but for their first proper vinyl release as a duo, souvenir is giving you even more...

slowly but surely, a constellation of young artists have expanded around ali, basti, philipp santé. in the night, they share the same decks thanks to the newly created souvenir booking entity. during the day, they swap beats and samples in the studio of tiefschwarz located in prenzlauer berg, building up a new creative energy, which is giving birth to the 23rd release of souvenir on vinyl.adam port, re.you and rampa, already had their own shines this year on souvenir. now, its the turn of &me (front room, keinmusik) and fischer & kleber to release a new must-have record permeated with the best groove coming from the german capital city. on the a-side, &me brilliantly hurts with bleed. he punches on the left with an unstoppable drum, weaves on the right with an hypnotic loop, that stirs mental alertness up, barks his anger with a digital whouah going fast and forward and compelling any dancer to incredible footwork. knocked out! robert fischer & niklas kleber had in common an electronic liveact discokonzentrat (high nrising records) and a band spurv laerke before bringing in their new project, fischer & kleber. they set with berki on the flipside the singular but no less enjoyable soundscape of a cathedral under construction. lightening up with deeply felt and almost religious whispers, the shrilling noises of computer-generated machine-tool, the mechanical and cold precision of a pitched down digital rock-drill, the duo turns >berki< into a canticle of the new millennium

co-producer of the lastest tiefschwarzs bomb >trust< and full-time member of souvenir, philipp >sante< maier spent the summer with ali and basti on the road, every time warmly praised by the crowds of fabric in london, watergate and weekend in berlin or sonar festival in barcelona for his highly physical live-set. santé, together with adam port, rampa or &me is also part of a new school of producers from berlin, all fully dedicated to the delights of foot-stomping, straight- and four-to-the-dancefloors and already gathered under the standard of souvenir booking. so for this 22nd release on vinyl, ali and basti clinked for the third time glasses with sante, but this time, they chopped the magnum, and offered their round to rampa, re.you and david mayer

the souvenir family grows this fall with two newcomers, two new remixes and four new essential tracks. please welcome warmly the global vibes of cj jeff, m-in and the remixes of kreon and sante on souvenir021. on the a-side, souvenir celebrates the talented greek electronic scene. c.j. jeff aka nikos safiris gradually built his sound through releases on his own label rythmetic or modern love. he signs a remarkable entry on souvenir with the a-side >got 2 b<. wave your arms! take a breath! a tribe of incredible bongos players is surrounding you, when the vocals of an androgyny shaman start compelling you to a never-ending foot-stomping dance. you are right, where you want to be. damn, it s >got 2 b< a hit. kreon has been raising a fair share of interest lately with appearances on cecille numbers, resopal or robsoul. he signed a dub remix and a perfect spell to push to the party to the early sun shines of the day. back to germany on the b-side! m-in aka marcus ferdinand from frankfurt has spread his talents of producer with releases for off or get digital, and early supports from josh wink, johnny d, thomas schumacher or dj t. again we are talking about deep sensations, haunting vocals and afro rhythms. the tiefschwarz brothers have hammered >capetown river boating< on the road this summer. now its your turn to send a blessing from south africa to your crowd. studio partner of ali and basti, philip sante maier has barely released >dambalaa< last month, that he is already back in production. nobody will complain. his trademark, a clearly percussive approach and a dizzying groove particularly fitted with >capetown river boating<. 2 - 2, we gladly go overtime!

excellent remixes by jamie jones, audion, tim green

big support by: chris titjen, audiofly, sebo k, livio & roby, tiefschwarz, karotte, kiki, josh wink, laurent garnier, gregor tresher...

a-list partner for the a-side >trust<, berlin-relocated seth troxler from detroit, has been delivering countless bangers for crosstown rebels, spectral or wolf + lamb and forged quite a reputation for himself. seth brings freshness and freedom in his work as well as in his relationships with the girls! his edgy voice takes off on some sick rumbling percussions, and pairs up all along the track with mind twisting waves and swirling vibes to impulse a dizzying, thus delighting booty-shaking dance. loyal to the house tenets but frivolous with innovations this is straight out of the top drawer, trust us!no less rewarding, the tiefschwarz brothers hit the >roads< on the b-side. the opening steady beat is gradually driven by hypnotic keynotes to a darker path. break! the drums take the lead again, but still infected by the loop, the track goes on, and compels to an irresistible euphoria. far out! tiefschwarz step up once again with a must-have record, be ready for the next things to come!

played by karotte (cocoon), phunky , minimalistic techno / techhouse bomb!!

ultraphat killer hypnotic techhouse groover !!!

part 2 of the simple, maybe release reveals the dark side of the brothers schwarz. yeah ought to be taken literally. batten down the hatches and turn up the volume, here comes a true masterpiece. naturally, tiefschwarz have saved the banger until last. there are not many tracks out there, which make you get up and dance after two bars already. the basis of yeah is a perfectly orchestrated drum beat. a steady bass drum, rolling toms, a crisp snare, all together powered by a low-pitch synth sample in the background. a sound, that is as offensive and sentimental as possible at the same time. add a well-filtered choir sample on top and you get a deepness and amplitude that can only be mastered by the finest soundsystems on the planet. like looking through a burning glass, the break shows what tiefschwarz are really all about with this track: gradually, all sound elements are shut down, overlayed by white noise that comes with goosebumps guarantee. this spring, youll better be on the dancefloor, when the drums set in again! deininger on the b-side is an almost gloomy track, driven by a dark deep-house bass line. once again, tiefschwarz play with a wide range of elements: an off-beat synth wind section, dry tinker bells and sliced vocals, well-orchestrated by a fine mix. all together this creates the perfect atmosphere for a monday morning sun rise. exhausted, dried-out, longing for your bed and a glass of water, yet at the same time not wanting to go home. great music got soul, the perfect balance, that keeps the heart pumping and the body dancing. deininger is about this certain temper, the groove, that makes you carry on.

part 1 of the new double-release from tiefschwarz aims at the heart of house music: soul. “on&on” is a first-class arranged club track. starting off with a wonderful mellow theme, that is adumbrated by the bass line in an one-and-a-half minute long exposition. the track ups the tempo with an additional hi-hat resolving into a shuffle beat. in double time, we move on towards the first break. here an edgy, minor key-chord sequence is introduced, making it obvious for everyone, that this track is gonna take off. eventually the keys function as a counterpoint to the classic bass line. a four-to-the-floor “on&on” vocal sample takes over after the break, adding another percussive aspect. as the track goes on a mulitiplicity of side elements sets in - no room for tediousness! in the end the “on&on” vocals resolve into “it’s so simple… . who knows, but this could be a broad hint to all the tech-house academics out there. no matter what, this grande finale raises a smile from every last sweaty soul on the dancefloor. with “best inn” on the b-side tiefschwarz create a dance classic, dressed in 2009 fashion. reminiscent of long gone nu-groove times, a traditional house beat - including a tiny off-beat tinker bell - blasts out of the speakers. a slured synth-organ provides the track with that certain edgyness. here, the brothers keep it laid-back yet exciting at the same time. this piece goes on and on and on - and you yourself run alongside, not wanting to pause. but watch out! at the latest in the second break, tiefschwarz put nostalgia to the test via some shockingly muffled metal drums. one of these moments, where you wish yourself back into the middle of an eight-hour deep-house set in 1992. the train departs. one thrillingly beautiful landscape after another runs by, until the warm sun strokes of the south suddenly rouse you out of slumber. arrived

ruede hagelsteins the modest theme has proven to be one of souvenirs most provocative releases so far. released in the summer, the tracks dramatic horn hook is so epic it belongs in a science fiction film and as a piece of forward thinking techno, it ranks among one of souvenirs best. now the track is back with a remix from souvenir spearheads tiefschwarz alongside a new track from berlin based ruede. semikolon is another dark and dubby deep tech-housy outing for ruede that begins with a dramatic spoken word by naneci and ominous organ stabs. as the track progresses it takes on a chicago house vibe re-imagined at 10am in the panorama bar. an urgent bell begins to ring through the track raising the tension as the vocal intones a surreal chant before giving way to huge synth stabs that lead the track into a slow motion emotional explosion. just when things can get any more hectic the crescendo sinks to silence compressing the energy before the beats emerge back in their earlier deep house guise. ali and bast schwarz take their turn at remixing the modest theme fresh from their incendiary remix of emad kamandians kamanche for souvenir 012. the signature dramatic horn riff remains albeit injected with new percussion lending the track a tough tech house appeal that places it within the context of 2008s underground house sound. both tracks are another addition to souvenirs impressive collection of music aimed at the head just as much as they are at the heart and feet.

incl tiefschwarz remix !! ali and basti schwarzs souvenir label continue its sonic safari into electronic musics underworld20 with >kamanche< by >emand paradian<

likely ep is tims first release on tiefschwarzs souvenir label. lead track alike sounds like ivan smagghe jamming with richie hawtin in a warehouse rave in london, skirting a line between futuristic tech house and discerning electro. a live bassline holds down the groove as a trickling bleepy melody develops throughout the track. as more and more layers of elaborate sonic trickery are laid down, a driving snare jacks out the groove further before a series of effects laden breakdowns tighten the tension further and further. cowbells take the second phase of the track ever taughter before the groove emerges into a stabbing hook and pulsating synth noises that drive the dancefloor into blissed out oblivion. subtle vocals tease the ears in the background of the final strung out breakdown, never quite dominating the tune before the jacking bass and kick drop back in. ‘unlike shares a similar vibe for mixing live instruments with plug in madness. live sounding bassline and guitar lines open the track and roll out the groove before the main synth hook takes over. as the track rolls in and out of its breakdowns it lurches between reverb heavy, bleepy chaos and futuristic rhythms. think depeche mode writing an experimental instrumental on the moon in 2012 and youre halfway there. like many french artists these days tim lives and works in london and also collaborates with fellow frenchies ivan smagghe and dante eprom. he first caught the attention of vinyl sleuths with his excellent remix of db (8)s future now in 2004 and now runs his own label marketing music as well as pushing the boundaries of spacey electro flavoured tech house with his own solo material.

ziggy kinders last outing on souvenir proved to be one of the highlights of 2007. bailamos, a record destined to make love to the converging worlds of european techno and south american latin music was hailed by artists like laurent garnier, koze and mike shannon for its mysterious melodies and enveloping percussion while the a-side que pasa maria was championed by anja schneider and radioslave. fans of tiefschwarzs daring souvenir imprint will be in no doubt as to what lies in store for the label’s tenth release. >flipflop crash< is another typically ziggy workout destined for a discerning international dancefloor. disorientating percussion and flanging effects dance around an insistent throbbing bassline while a female vocal whispers in french. the warm melodies layering the track hint at the sultriness of >bailamos< , but this is a continuation not a revisitation and an impressive step forward for ziggys sound. on the flip chilean star pier bucci takes up the remix reigns. after impressing with his ahead-of-its-time familia lp on crosstown rebels in 2005 and last years club bomb hay consuelo, his addition to the souvenir roster is another memorable recruitment with current label remix talents including artists like carl craig, tiefschwarz, shonky, samim, kiki & silversurfer and radioslave. his interpretation adds an injection of urgency to ziggys original, stripping the vocals back to a minimum to make way for an epic delay soaked synth hook. its a remix destined for the end of a night or that perfect plateau of a party when the dancefloor has been moving for hours waiting for a hypnotising melody such as this to sweep it onto another level
