Jazzsteppa - Investment Decision Ep

Following the success of the mighty ‘Big Swing Sound’ for Studio Rockers, we are proud to announce the return of the inimitable sounds of Jazzsteppa to the label with the fantastic ‘Investment Decision’.

Born out of a meeting of minds at a Berlin Jazz festival in 2006, the unique Jazzsteppa collective effortlessly and genuinely collide the worlds of live and electronic music, combining the experimentalism and soul of Jazz with the programming and dancefloor aesthetic of dubstep, and in the process inject a breath of fresh air and a new perspective to both. Releases on the revered Hot Flush imprint and their own JazZstePpa label, amongst others, have seen them hone their sound to a fine art, bursting with energy, musicality and low-end weight.


Lead track ‘Investment Decision’ is an explosive call to arms. It enters on a backbone of claps, with hi-hats and melodies rising up through them, building anticipation before stopping dead. A vocal sample and injection of mid-range bass signal the drop, giving way to a hefty half-step beat and thick swathes of schizophrenic lfo’d bass. Swept along by the skittering hi-hat undercurrent, the bass jumps violently as the horns then blast in, filling the track with a bombastic energy.



On the flip, Jazzsteppa take a smoother approach on ‘Sweet Tooth’. Riding in on a fuzzy lead line punctuated by blasts of horns, it drops into an undulating bassline caressed by soulful vocals . As the track progresses, synth lines judder in and out of the mix and flourishes of brass float around the atmosphere, sweeping through the fuzzy core of the track with ease. It also comes with the instrumental of ‘Sweet Tooth’ so that the instrumental can take centre stage.
‘Perspective’ provides an interlude to round things off with a short, sharp blast of squealing horns and a barrage of live drums.‘

Mako 004: Eclier


Whoever said that there’s nothing in Siberia besides snow and bison?? Now you can put Eclier on your global radar.

The adventure starts for Nikita with an electro choc when he was 11 and first heard the Daft Punk’ s «Homework». Since then, his live is devoted to the music, ELECTRO music ! Around 15 he started to run partys in his town Krasnoyarsk bringing to the wild east the best from the west. Aged 20, he added on his myspace the amazing electro bomb «Boxon say hello». He s now playlisted by Digitalism, Midnight Juggernauts, and made several remixes (for Tom Deluxx, Dilemn..). After 2 releases on french label BoxOn ( « Boxon Say Hello » EP and the «Alpha River» EP) the young siberian dude , 22 years old only, is ready to be part of the MAKO Records adventure.

Eclier proudly represents the new cold wave from the east : Dark electro break, robotic vocals and spacey pop synths : all together this siberian chemistry is a hot hymn to the dancefloor.

MAKOs 004 «The Hole» by Eclier is just another electro bomb, another way of say Hello to Siberia!
Thank you for your time and consideration,
Zhenya aka PROXY

RipTidE - Fireleaf EP + Dem Slackers - Working Title Free EP


Max Bedeker fell in love with music whilst on holiday in the South of France aged 11. Hearing Sepultura's 'Roots' album for the first time he was hooked, his first act on arriving home was to buy that album quickly followed by those of Metallica and KoRn. From that short Holiday Romance a life long musical love affair was born….

The biggest push for being a producer/DJ however, came at the Benicassim festival, where he went to see 'this dj called Erol Alkan who did that Franz Ferdinand remix that's pretty good'. After a long long day, very tired, he still made it to the stage, and when he saw and heard him play Boys Noize's remix of Tiga - Move My Body, and then dropped Rage Against The Machine's Killing In The Name Of he knew that that's what he wanted to do: Become a dj.

Slowly building up a studio full of analogue gear Max started delving deeper, not only listening to, but studying classic producers such as Giorgio Moroder and Patrick Cowley. Whilst at the same time concentrating on his own productions, making it his number one priority.

Now finally, after the shock-success of his remix, he's ready to take on the world with his dj-sets and productions. Already he's got some releases coming up on Tommie Sunshine's Brooklyn Fire label, Boemklatsch records, and will be producing other artists as well.

Not only that he’s worked with singer songwriters, bands and even recorded a song with Tibetan monks! There's no telling in what will happen next in the world of RipTidE…

-Dem Slackers - Working Title EP

Despite only being 18 years old Dem Slackers has quite a few titles to his name. He found his love for producing about five years ago and decided to spend more time making music in 2008. Since then he has signed two EPs (one on Wearhouse and one on BMKLTSCHRCRDS), made official remixes for Lil’ Wayne, Foamo and Mightyfools and was asked to remix for Kissy Sell Out’s San City High and Bart B More’s Secure Recordings to name a few. Next to producing he also started out DJing not long after, and his live act was soon discovered and praised by many – his tracks are supported by Crookers, Steve Aoki, Fake Blood, Don Rimini, Sinden, Tommy Sunshine, Mightyfools and many more, and with tours in Hungary, Belgium, the Netherlands and England already confirmed it won’t be long for him to take over the world!
