Deep house meets western with a soul! 

With his new track “TopDown” up and coming producer and DJ Max Manie creates a symbiosis of electronic deep house sounds and catchy guitar riffs. Top it all off with the soul vocals of singer Maggy Rich and it’s hard to put this sound into only one genre. Deep House? Soul? Pop? Either way, one thing is for sure: TopDown is mysterious, one of a kind and unbelievable sexy!

Young Austrian Max Manie is no stranger in the international Dance scene. In 2013 his debut EP “Sunday” had great success on an international level (45 million YouTube views, 8 million streams on Spotify). Besides many other projects and bookings worldwide, he remixed for several EDM legends. Most recently for German superstar Robin Schulz (“Show Me Love”). And who doesn’t already know German singer and songwriter Maggy Rich should keep most definitely an eye on the 23-year old... 

"TopDown" comes complete with another huge rework from the KlangTherapeuten, who are constantly rockin the beatport indie dance / tech house chart with their own productions, plus an additional mysterious Behind The Mountains remix.

 [content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Exceptional talent Max Manie services a magnificent tropical deep house anthem with excellent soulful vocals that will stay in your head for ever. The two remixes are equally stunning with KlangTherapeuten who provide the danceable funky groovy ultimate Ibiza deep house version while Behind The Mountains is exceptional with minimal grooves, haunting basslines, guitar riffs and magical strings creating something very special for your ears. #PureGold Love It [/content]

In the two years since his last original outing on the label, the unforgettable “Beautiful Life”, Martin Roth has developed his deep hypnotic sounds on labels like Poesie Musik and Hernan Cattaneo’s Sudbeat. He returns to Anjunadeep with “Mel / Maya”, two dark, techno influenced gems showcasing Martin’s ear for spellbinding club music.

“Mel” is a surging monster of a track, driven by huge rumbling low end beneath subtle swirling melodies. Combining dark, techy elements with classic progressive textures, “Mel” is a fine example of the current underground sound in Martin’s hometown of Berlin.

A stand out on Anjunadeep 06, “Maya” is another moody piece of house music, primed for a 4AM dancefloor. Big thudding percussion masks a gentle melody that ebbs and flows into an epic breakdown, packed full of atmospheric rising pads.

On remix duties are two emerging talents Peter Pardeike and Whomi. Tackling “Mel” is Whomi, who has made waves recently with impressive remixes of Ultraista and Soul Button. He takes a minimal approach, building from murky beginnings into an incredible crescendo throughout the breakdown. A serious dancefloor weapon in the right hands!

Following a hugely supported release on Innervisions with Marcus Worgull, fellow Berliner Peter Pardeike turns his hand to “Maya" in distinctive fashion. Stripping back to focus on bassline and piano, the track takes a leftfield turn into arpeggio territory. Another memorable moment on a highly anticipated comeback EP.



Dimitri Kechagias review: Anjunadeep is still on that celebration mood as the latest compilation Anjunabeats vol.6 topped many well known download shop dance charts with great ease and without huge marketing campaigns. Anjunadeep is the label that grows thanks to the positive word of mouth that its growing army of supporters spreading in the social media.  Martin Roth who was well known many years before for his excellent trance releases continues to evolve his style into a much more deeper moodier groovier darker sound that still retains some trancy aesthetics. Certainly Mel, the first track on this Anjunadeep release, is not what classically someone can characterise as deep house cause actually Martin applies great melodic layers and atmospheres that carry away the listener on a  surprising journey. His kick, drums and basslines are more trancy sounding rather than tribal or funky housy we get on deep house productions. With slightly psy trance elements in it  is a slow groover that builds a wonderful mythical soundscape and challenge us to follow him inside this dark cold distant kingdom of sounds, samples, effects and most importantly haunting mysterious atmosphere. Maya on other hand moves on that tribal tech house groove but with heavenly ethnic vocals and brooding bassline that sounds dominating. He adds slowly the acid overtones until to land on the breakdown where he allows to come in the surface the melancholic retro vintage style melody that carries on the second part and helps the listener to totally lost it in the music and become one with the liquid floating sounds. Mel is remixed by Whomi who respects the original by re imaging it in a more deeper and even melodic melancholic sound that is hypnotic, elevating, cinematic and truly inspiring with addition of many hylophone riffs and piano melody. The breakdown will surprise with the playful way that distorts the original theme and manage to come up with something fresh and elevating.  Its one of those tracks that instantly bring in your mind mental images. Peter Pardeike remix deducts the tribal feel of the original and goes into an even more abstract territory with deep minimal kicks, deep basslines and magical atmosphere that certainly will attract your attention if it happens to hear it in a club or radio show. The breakdown introduces the distorted twisted melody that actually continues on the main section while on the outro section he adds piano chords and superb atmospherics. It's such an amazing package with stunning originals and perfect remixes that will appeal to those who go not for the obvious and search under the surface! #PureGold Love It

Joris Delacroix & Oliver Schories - what a team! 

After getting to know each other some years ago in the Netherlands they became friends and finally joined their musical forces in 2014 to create this (late) summer EP.

Being each of them already solo a class of its own, the two original tracks of this collaboration bring it to a new level. Rounded up with 3 huge remixes by N'to (Hungry Music), Dan Caster (Stil vor Talent) and Zusammenklang (SOSO) this is a package that Schories' label "der turnbeutel" can really be proud of. Enjoy it!






Flux BPM Online recommends to any follower of deep house/eclectic house/electronic music this fantastic package of great originals and stunning remixes that will transfer you to magical exotic places and summery faraway spaces. Quality from start to finish and must have, check them on soundcloud and judge for yourself!

Early support by Doctor Dru (Jeudi Rec.), Kiki (Exploited Rec.), Gurwan (Buena Onda Rec.),  Werner Niedermeier (Bullet Dodge Rec.), Radio Altro Verso, Different Grooves. 

Coming out on Motor Music, a new release from Germany's capitol is waiting to hit your dancefloor. Leisegang & Radunz, the two smart guys living and working in Berlin, put their heads together again and created an absolutely funky deep-going floor-burner. And we are happy to provide it with you.

"Inner Beauty" is fresh but still dark and what you can call techno with soul. An electronic music-sound that reflects the virginal collaboration between this two guys. With an unrelenting energy where no room for a breather exists. Always on the point, always pushy and straight-forward. 

Friends like Iland Berlin and "in-house-made" remixes by Leitner or Ron Ractive gives "Inner Beauty" a floating vibe between open aired summer and dirty indoored-club-atmosphere. Go for it!



Dimitri Kechagias review: The top independent record label Motor records give us another outstanding slice of the current sound of Berlin. Great underground vibes that will be remembered for long and will stay in your heart from autumn and winter and beyond. Leisegang & Radunz deliver the stunning Inner Beauty which can only be described as magnificent and fabulous. The original mix is a minimal chunky deep tech house gem with great melodic themes, trumpet like riffs and great rhythm and groove that lock you inside and doesn't allow you to get away from it. Luscious synths, magical atmosphere and relaxing sounds to hypnotise your senses. Radunz & Letner remix is a nearly 9 minutes tribal tech house beauty with great percussion, synthy hooks, superb guitar riffs and luscious glorious atmosphere. Along with retro vintage sounds and jazz house influences is definitely a pleasurable sonic journey. Iland Berlin remix is darket moody more experimental and abstract deep minimal house production with creativity and unique flair! Leisegang And Radunz Remix starts with great melodic intro and carries on the deep tech house territory with old school influences, romantic melodies, guitar riffs and cool vocal samples. It's perfect to play in your club and bring back that Ibiza carefree feeling. Sunny, dreamy, travelling and super smooth will transfer you to magical spaces! Last but not least Ron Ractive goes for the more minimal dark and sinister tech house sound but with jazz house influences that add warmth and sweetness upon the cold mechanical groove! Great record that can become even better with some vocals on top! #PureGold Love it
