Project Mayhem "Psycopath" Released 24.2.02 Cat No. KTI024
A - Serious
B - Psycopath
Two new up and coming artists from the south coast scene join the Brighton based label. Their previous outing on Nukleuz received major interest from other labels and so Kaktai decided to snap up two of their hottest titles. Expect to see more of them soon. Early support on acetate from Superfast Oz and Karim proved this release was going to win the support of the hard house faithful. With its driving, uncompromising basslines, almost psychedelic trance influenced patterns and full on thumpin', it's hardly a surprise this EP has literally been causing mayhem everywhere.

Mark Knight "Get Up" Released 3.3.03 Cat No. KID004
A - Get Up
B - Voices
Mark Knight's introduction to the scene started very much at the deep end back in 1995 promoting a one off party 'The Love Ball' at the seminal Arches in London where he played alongside the legendary Masters At Work. In 1999 Mark was approached by Kiss 100 to become resident at their latest venture 'Independence', a weekly funky house night to be held at the Hanover Grand. This tie with Kiss resulted in numerous radio mixes and it was at this stage that Mark felt that he had the experience and confidence to enter into the world of production. Dave Lee (Joey Negro) recommended that Mark work with his then engineer Kevin (k-boy) Brooks and K&M were born. Following a series of successful and highly respected productions under this guise, Polydor asked the guys do a mix of Kylie Minogue�s track 'Can't Get You Out Of My Head'. Mark is currently working with house legend Barbara Tucker on a track for her new album.

Various "No Nonsense mixed by Gab Oliver" Released 3.3.03 Cat No. ZOTCD003
For years the DJs and producers of the underground have spoken about �educating� the citizens of the dancefloor. There is always more to be taught but it is fair to say that a lot of good work has already been done. Today�s clubber is music savvy. A critical breed who are aware of just what it takes to make a track and why it is that some records scorch while others flounder. These days, good records achieve average results. It is only exceptional records that are selling in the market place. A record needs sometimes indefinable �difference� to reach up and grab the attention of the dance world. It is easy to see that Zero Tolerance records have that �difference.� Working out of the DMC studio in Melbourne, Australia, Zero Tolerance is the honest and independent vision of a collective of likeminded artists. Between them they share a love of all things deep and left of centre, not because it�s trendy to be labelled �deep� or �alternative� but because they believe in the appeal of the sounds they are creating. In the three years since its inception, Zero Tolerance has established itself as the undisputed flagship of quality Australian deep house. It is a reputation that has been forged on consistency and a commitment to quality, and while it is no secret in Australia that Zero Tolerance is where it�s at, the rest of the world is fast taking notice.

Disc One - Unmixed:
NARCOTIK � BLUE

A - Constitution
B - Techno-logy
Ben K is no stranger to production with numerous releases under his belt with Hotwax Records.

Already this track has featured on 'Extreme Euphoria' and has already been getting numerous discussions on Tidy.com message board which has recently been averaging over 5,000,000 hits a month! 'Techno-logy' is a cool techno influenced hard house piece with quirky percussion and annoying stabs and sublime riff.

Organ Donors are 2 of the most exciting producers on Nukleuz. All their productions including In Power, Locked Tight, 99.9 and Blackout (featuring on DJ Nation �Bootleg Edition� released 27th January) have been licensed to compilations all over the world and have managed to span the spectrum of trance, techno and hard house DJ support. They also remixed Mauro Picotto's �Back To Cali� - his last European smash hit. This is the record that samples the �Mumma say, mumma sa� vocal from Michael Jackson �Wanna Be Startin� Something�. The original version has become highly sought-after, having featured in the Top 40 Nukleuz DJs �DJ Nation� release. This 12� has been deleted for six months but the buzz has continued to grow and grow with some of the most important DJs on the planet continuing to support it. Mixmag featured the record in its Top 10 tunes of the month in December 2002. Remixers, Manticore, have released two Sasha and Pete Tong-championed anthems, 'Slave' and 'Sweet FM' on Baroque Records. This remix is deep and tribal. Extres vs Jaume Batlle are a Spanish remix team who have turned in a Marco V style anthem. Very European-style techno. Clive King�s mix is a Dutch hardstyle remix similar to Scot Project with a hard trance twist. The original techno-mayhem mix is still very much in demand as it�s not been available on vinyl for 6 months! Finally, the Supreme Dream Team have just scored a Top 30 hit in the UK with Dreamer (playlisted by Radio One for 6 weeks). They check in with a tough European techno version.

Tedd Patterson "Magnifique" Released 3.03.03 Cat No. FLUENT39
A - Magnifique
B - Magnifique (Chus & Ceballos Iberican remix)
The native New Yorker and Magic Sessions Resident brings to you the dark and tribal sound of the big apple. Tedd has become known as a "DJ's DJ" for inspiring many other spinmasters with his sound, but his main focus has always remained on the dancefloor. For this reason, in 1996, Tedd was asked to join forces with Producers/DJs Tony Humphries and Little Louie Vega for The Magic Sessions - one of the most anticipated annual dance music industry events. Not content to play for his own ego or those of respected peers, he creates singular performances that play to each particular crowd. He is one of the few top DJs spinning today that cannot be predicted, cannot be easily categorized, and cannot be listened to sitting down.The percussive driving original has already become a staple in Tedd�s sets. On the flipside Madrid �uber-producers� Chus and Ceballos furnish us with an extreamely hypnotic Iberican mix. Simply Huge!

Quantom "Cannibal" Released 3.03.03 Cat No. DEST03
A - Cannibal
B - Cannibal (Man Eating dub)
The Quantom track was actually conceived nearly a year ago. It is another baby of Matt �Mblack, Soul Shaker, 4Tune 500�.� Schwartz. It was one of those tracks that Matt never finished and for the last six month have been adding, deducting, dividing and doing lots of creative things that to be honest did not beat the 1st version. The good people at Back Yard then decided to simply just release the master that was delivered a year ago. The A Side track is funked up tribal house affair that is to rock any discerning floor. The B Side is all of the above just slightly dubier and sharper. Guaranteed to be heard on sweaty, raunchy, drug induced, sexy Monday afternoon at Jo Mills� Circo Loco�.

Raw 14 "Cannibal" Released 3.03.03 Cat No. RAW14
Guy 'The Geezer' McAffer and his old mucker Cyber Simon (Hydraulix) get to the mighty RAW imprint to wreak havoc on the techno party nation. With their trademark groovetastic beats and funked up samples, the boys show us why RAW is a major force in the techno and hard trance world.

A - Dreamin' Underground
B - Love's Gonna Getcha
Siesta follow up the huge 'Motherf***ing name' (Jay J) with 'Dreamin' Underground', a slice of slick, soulful vocal house with a cool, jazzy vibe. Meanwhile on the flipside, 'Love's Gonna Getcha' lifts the tempo and vibe with a more tribal, latin feel.
