From bare and trippy minimal techno of Argy’s huge hit “Love Dose” or Berkson & What’s “If I Was A Man” to Trentemøller ‘s bombastic “Always Something Better”, from funky hipshakers á la Bug & Tanzmann’s “Shock” or Chardronnet’s “Shake It” to quirky soundscapes - the album covers the full range of modern electronic cutting edge music.
The fifth Poker Flat statement features Steve’s Berlin based inmates such as Guido Schneider, Martin Landsky and Märtini Brös as well as internatinally well reputed producers like Trentemøller, John Tejada, Luciano, Patrick Chardronnet or Martin Buttrich and highly talented newcomers like Argy, Dan Berkson & James What, Limacon, Philippe Autuori, Sian and Jamie Jones.
“Poker Flat Volume 5” includes the best hits from the current season spearheaded by Luciano’s remix for Argy’s “Love Dose”, Martin Landsky’s “1000 Miles”, Steve Bug’s “Smackman”, Chardronnet’s “Shake It” and Trentemøller’s “Always Something Better” as well as still to be released future classics like Martin Buttrich’s “Snapshots” or “If I Was A Man” by Berkson & What.
With a fine tradition there are six tracks which have been exclusively produced for this album by John Tejada & Bilal Bashir, Dan Berkson & James What, Steve Bug & Clé, Philippe Autuori and Jamie Jones and only these exclusives are included on the double-vinyl version of the album.
On the second CD “Poker Flat Volume 5” features a superb bonus-mix by Martin Landsky. Martin has been member of the Poker Flat family since the early days and apart from his album “In Between” (pfrcd04) he released eight fantastic singles on Poker Flat - most recently the clubhit “1000 Miles” (/w Loco Dice remix). Martin created an excellent live-tuntable mix with a groovy flow which will attract both clubbers and home-listeners.

...::: 02. Martin Buttrich: Cloudy Bay - pfr78
Poker Flat welcomes Martin Buttrich. The Hannover (Germany) based producer is the ingenious mastermind behind the Time Tools studio and co-producer for high profile artists like Timo Maas or Loco Dice. Although he's been working as a producer for more than ten years, he only recently started to release under his real name and dropped 12"es on Four.Twenty (2004) and on Carl Craig's Planet-E ("Full Clip", 2006) and delivered a remix for O'Brien-Docker ("Totally Alright"), before he joined Poker Flat for an exclusive Track ("Snapshots") on the upcoming Poker Flat Volume 5 album. Now we are proud to present "Cloudy Bay" his debut EP for Poker Flat. Once more the new 3-tracker proves his enormous skills. "Cloudy Bay" is a catchy and simply beautiful track with exciting strings and a wicked break which bring up the right dose of ecstasy on the floor. Massive tune! The B-side holds two more high-spirited tracks with "What's Your Name" being a bit more relaxed and deep, while "Lazy Bastard" edges
upwards again to a good pace with a great arrangement and a 100% positive vibe. Fantastic release by a great producer!

...::: 03. Guido Schneider: Transmission - pfr79
After his groundbreaking debut album "Focus On: Guido Schneider" (pfrcd17/pfrlp17) in summer, Guido Schneider returns with a new stunning EP on Poker Flat! Guido has been quite busy this year with recording the album and touring the world with his hypnotizing DJ set and his amazing live-set, with the highlight being his residency at Ibiza's famous DC10 club.
The new EP is another proof of Guido's great production skills and brings two excellent tracks which explore his signaturesound even further. The titletrack "Transmission" is an (almost) pure rhythmic and percussive affair, showcasing a vast array of drums from kongas to bongos, from sticks to shakers and builds a hypnotizing highly energetic soundscape. A buzzing chant by Florian Schirmacher, Guido's former partner in the "Glowing Glisses" project, adds a "sacral" atmosphere to the track. "Halo" on the b-side still manoeuvers through mainly percussive terrain, but contains more impulsive, twisted and funky elements. Check the well timed cue of the deep bassline - this is ace and gives this track an extra claim to fame.
