Details: A brand new label from France!!!! Oooh la la! .... ‘Katorza’ bought to you by label head Maelstrom who’s label mantra is similar to that of his own releases, to deliver top notch music, be it taking in the styles of breaks, electro, techno and all with a serious dollop of funk to get the party going. Maelstrom has had releases on Jalapeno Records, Rotax, Labrok, Menu Music and West Records. Maestrom has quite simply exploded onto the scene in the past two and half years, drawing the support of artists across the globe, including the likes of Krafty Kuts, Aquasky, Lady Waks, Cut La Roc, the Utah Saints, Ellis Dee, Rennie Pilgrem and the Plump DJs!

First up on this label’s debut release Redux steps up with Diskobreaks which kicks straight in with its pounding distorted bass and fractured sounds. The precision edits and serious, but slightly cheeky, attitude give this electro - house expedition a firm footing on the dance floor. The glitchy tweaks and filtered chords lift the track and ensure that your mind, and not just your arse, is catered for!

The ‘Candy mix’ starts off with a chunky breakbeat and bouncy bass and then goes all expansive and progressive for the early morning crowd who can get lost in its deep textures and subtly pounding and driving four-four organic-mechanic sounds.

Woah there! The ‘Deadend mix’ is unashamedly an excursion into uncompromising techno-electro and you really shouldn’t let your mother, or grandmother, hear this because it will sound like an alien machine come to take them away! The juddering filtered chords are still here, but underpinned by a fierce arpeggiated bass that really punches through the track and is sure to keep those filthy drug takers bouncing up and down on the dancefloor and punch the air with their fists in involuntary acts of demented dancefloor mayhem! Be warned!
