Illegal Alien next catalog number IARLTD006 belongs to Italian artist and Illegal Alien member, Mari Mattham. Instinct is the name of his brand new work and includes three remixes by Xhin, Fabrizio Lapiana and Iori, all of them providing outstanding
interpretations of Instinct.

Gynoid Audio label is back on wax after a long summer break with this latest offering from Swedish producer Mikael Jonasson. The A-side kicks off with "Fata Morgana" which is without doubt a techno rave weapon of the highest proportions. On remix duty here is Marco Bailey with hard-driven, pounding techno tool, while the flip side belongs to Flug who delivers not one but two brilliant remixes of the title track. Firstly is the deeper, rawer, more hypnotic mix, followed by a more spacious, clubby, acid-techno version.

Already gaining support from Cari Lekebusch, Truncate, Len Faki, Keith Carnal, Advanced Human, Gary Beck, Sam Paganini, Rraph, Noaria, Drumcomplex, DJ Hyperactive, Jeff Rushin, Coeter, Yokushe, Chris Liebing

The next EP on CCDC comes from Owen Ni. The 19 year old from Alabama shows up with some deep
tunes that ride the line between house and techno in his EP entitled Studies'.

A1: Adolescence - Chunky percussion begins the experience quickly followed by morphing chord
stabs that give of a bright feeling of energy. The percussion changes as the stabs make up the
headlining space, later a vox chords come in to help fill out the tune. Meanwhile a pulsating bass line
is riding so subtly in the underneath the brightness.

A2: Running By The Beat - Deep chord flow while the kick drum slowly appears to establish the
groove. A voice is heard meanwhile the baseline is pulsating. Minimal percussion is heard, yet really
it on the slow build until the entire groove is established

B1: Running By The Beat (Whim-ee Remix) - Whim-EE decides to take it into straight beating
territory. The tempo picks up as the distorted kick drum wangs the woofers. Percussion comes in
slowly, and an acid line takes up the main attention of the track. The vocals are in audible, however it
fits the feel of the idea. Sparse elements continue to make surprise appearances, as the chords are re-
freaked.

B2: Studies - Swirling chords scrape through the air showcases Owen's emotions. In beat down mode,
the percussion comes in slowly to establish a groove. The percussion is low and really for those
heads that like to rock those slower hypnotic waveforms.

RS (Rinchoa Stress) began in 2014 as a group of close friends, even before they started producing. The warm shout-outs in closing anthem "Hino RS" reveal the affection they feel for each other, just after the main melodic hook gets going. Things got serious in 2016 when Narciso, then 17, decided to take production seriously and relaunched RS as a proper crew with DJs (himself, Nuno, Nulo and Lima), producers (himself, Nuno and Farucox) and MC (Pimenta).

Out of "Bagdad" (Rinchoa, Rio de Mouro), in under 2 years, RS made a name for themselves with tight, across the board grooves, working melody and metal beats with equal proficiency. "Caipirinha" and "Constipação Do Poco" adopt a more muscular batida architecture and rave on with proper metallic cargaa; "Guerreiro" brings out a brilliant, dissonant main motive, defying some rules of melody and timbre; a string of semi-tarraxos follows: "Lingrinhas" and "Atrevimento" insist on the "wrong" side of melody in less than 2 minutes each and, at 2:04, "Futuro" slows down even more in a reflective mood while all around everything appears to be falling apart (listen closely to the explosions in the distance); on to the longer stretch of "Abertura", a house number where every element seems to follow its own independent course, carefully placed in a separate track, all moving in the same direction. Narciso and Nuno layed down all compositions here, teaming up as the core producers of RS, growing up post DJs Di Guetto (2006 - see our timeline elsewhere on the web) and into the crew's now regular gigs at Príncipe's monthly residency (@Musicbox, Lisbon).

Rudder & Kresy join the Roots For Bloom camp with a cocktail of deep house cuts. The title track Stateless is emotional and grooving, with the likes of Maya Jane Coles picking up on it immediately. Its a track that has the ability to transport the listener elsewhere. To complete the A side Boulevard hits hard with an analogue baseline, pads and vocal swirls to induce a closed eyes, head down groove. Holdin On is everything dreamy and uplifting you need, with lush chords and vocal stabs with strings washing over throughout. Release myself sits more in line with the warm up hours or daytime drinks in the sunshine vibe. This EP covers a full spectrum and will cover many bases in a DJ arsenal.

For its second release, the French record label is delivering 4 house traxx from its founders Real J & Jus Jam (aka Jam For Real), Kerstone and a guest : Evolve. As always, the vinyl comes with a strong themed artwork with a hand drawn palm tree on the label.

For their next release, Moon Harbour welcome a new artist to the family in the form of Athens based Greek producer, Vangelis Kostoxenakis.

Kostoxenakis has made waves with his productions on Snatch!, Suara and Kling Klong, all under an array of aliases. Something of a perfectionist, his formal studies of sound design and music technology have allowed him to conjure his own unique takes on tech house. He also runs his own label Talk of the Town, and here proves he is not one to follow trends.

Opening his account is the perfectly driving Dig It', which powers along with rock solid kicks as the muffled chatter of a party atmosphere is off in the distance. Filters, fills and razor sharp hi hats all pepper the groove and a real raw energy pervades throughout. The excellent 'Hip It' then looks to classic US garage for a bit of sweet swing style, with air raid sirens going off and amping up the energy to rave-y levels.

The freaky 'Get High' is a busy brew of drilling synth stabs, police sirens and punchy kicks. Rolling snares, skewed chords and clipped vox all get sprinkled into the mix and mean this one is restless and energetic, keeping you on your toes throughout. Last but not least, 'Jack Attack' is an airy tech groove with cosmic keys raining down between thundering stabs as a vocal encourages you to jack. It's stuffed with ideas and slick by design.

Inventive, off kilter and filled with real world samples, these are playful, high functioning tracks that hit the mark each and every time.

More quality music coming from Argentina this time is Yanee and Alan Castro!

repress!! Mojuba is very proud to present the next release of the collaboration project with the one and only Chez Damier. The second release features a new mix of the epic downtempo "Why" and turns it into a mesmerizing journey to the deephouse realm.

In a constantly evolving world, there's always room for fresh power and new players in already richly filled landscape. However,  there's always room for more - especially with a scene that is constantly caring for innovation - and that's where Blackrod Records comes in.

This label is founded by Hungarian producer Depthon (a contraction of the words "depth" and "on") with a nonsensical approach to music. As said in the label's statement, the music released hereon, is also a reflection of the mindset of this techno artist. He came a long way, crawling through different genres but ending up in his favorite and most versatile style.

And in January, his very first physical release of music will happen on his own imprint. An EP on black gold loaded with 4 weapons that are ready to add up to every quality techno mix and also will destroy the dance floor.
3 of Depthon's own works and in addition a remix by Glaswegian techno prodigy and Sleaze Records labelhead Hans Bouffmhyre. "Last Train" is the first pulsating and powerful track that works as the opening window of this EP, followed by the remix by Bouffmyhre, which could could be described as an immaculate upgrade to the original.

On the flipside, it's "Faded" that is exemplary to the saying "less is more": dark and simple pads on a compelling background that surely will keep one's attention throughout the course. Last but not least is "Timelapse" that contrary to the other tracks uses high pitched synths as a lead, in combination with hissing hi-hats and a constantly changing scenery.

Alltogether, these tracks form a solid collection of forceful tracks and a perfect debut of an artist and his new label.

Incl. Remixes by Alexi Delano & Dema

Freak In Records Label Head Frank Valon (Italo Business, Frequenza) and Treibjagd Records mastermind Fleischer got their acts well together for the timelessly sullen, yet darkly energetic - Sad Song . Thus the title, we feel no reason to disrespect a certain autumn and winter vibe when sadness comes in the form of such beauty!

There's strength in letting go, as many philosophies tell you, and they are right. You can absolutely let go to this one...

Fall deep into the cushions of the warm and well-rounded Original mix, blending the iconic and soothingly soulful vocal with dubby aesthetics and an arrangement that soon makes this track a real song in your memory.

Or float in space, where US deep techno lover Alexi Delano (Drumcode, Plus 8) transcends this track to. With even more glimmering synths and pads he keeps the vibe of the original yet, but adds a lil' extra light to the whole topic!

Italian Producer Dema (Sci-Tec, Trapez) focusses on the classic, low-slung Dub chords for his remix. And lifts you up with a certain extra shuffle on the beat.

Played and support by :

Stacey Pullen, Marco Carola, Oscar Aguilera, Gel Abril, Valente, De la swing, Paco Osuna, D.Diggler, Franksen, Sisko Elektrofanatik, JP Chronic, Mental X, Alexi Delano, NOAH, Loui Fernandez, Nihil Young, Simon Ricci, Javier Benitez, Matt Handy, Lady Rose, Erefaan Pearce

On the occasion of its third release, LumièresLaNuit and TONESERIES co-founder, Edouard, is glad to welcome back Brussels-
based music composer, live performer & DJ Ground Tactics on An Der Grenze. Indeed, in 2015 Colin aka Ground Tactics made his

Ground Tactics is devoted to reaching new music horizons and emotions through an experiment including structures and
harmonies. This experiment occasionally results in contrasts and uncommon pathways as demonstrated in his The Return EP.

After his Dawn Of City Lights LP (LLN006) released at the end of 2016 on the occasion of LLN's 2 Year Anniversary, Ground Tactics
proposes on his The Return EP (ADG003) a more Techno-side of his work: linear, straightforward and effective.

An Der Grenze brings together Techno music and photography in order to take you somewhere between heavens and oceans.

Inspired by the early white label house music releases.

Vinyl only, limited copies, no digital promotion

After already dropping one cut on our all-encompassing initial compilation, celebrating 25 years of the club, we're happy to announce Joel Mull's follow up and first solo release on Distillery Records. Mull is an always welcome Tille-regular, one of the most prominent ambassadors of the Swedish Techno sound and a versatile producer that's constantly churning out high profile material since the mid 90ies. A cachet that's underpinned by this batch of tunes, kicking off with "Magnetum", an Industrially tinged blend of Techno, building on filtered polyrhythmic elements, a swelling bass and subtly implemented pads. He's going for an arrangement that's eschewing overcomplexity, in order to boost an utmost force on the dance floor. Next up is "Momentum" that sonically ventures down to even deeper levels of machine room ambience, emitting wafting plumes of bass, being flared by flashes of sawing clangs and pushed forward by a synth- based micro-theme that's wandering through filter-modulations. A massive big room weapon. "Connected" comes embedded in crackling and rustling soundscapes, but make no mistake, its kickdrum is out to blow off any sonic haze to make way for an Acid theme that slowly emerges from ambush. This very tune gets a remix treatment by none other than Mathimidori aka Mathias Kaden who's turning the character of the tune into a rather chilled out, groove accenting, Dub- resonating state of matter. The digital package then also features "Continuous Symmetry" as a bonus track, that's upping the ante again, yet appears a bit more leftfield in this cycle of Mulls new material.

the young and talented French producer, Labeuz, joins the Ondule Recs team for a first deep and groovy EP.
raw and smooth at the same time, Comme Tié Belle Nicole EP will let yourself be carried away in the classy universe of this very promising producer.

LCSeries006 arrives with the first solo label owner vinyl reelase.
Tracks taken from his latest album Purification, that was released exclusively on a limited CD edition, already sold out.

Finally four of the tracks comes on vinyl only, drive techno directly to push forward on the floor. Get purificated with the new LCSeries.

Debutant Trujillo, previously worldwide known as Mangelt lands on Lowwaxx.

The main (A) side of the record by Trujillo, is a solid balance of organic textures embraced with synths and modular basses. Elegant waveforms rolled with mystic atmospheres.

The Other Side Of the Record (B) shows up a galaxy settled of raw drums scattered by glitchy percs.
Melted with analog basslines result from the union of two alchemists of the mental dancefloor.

Trujillo & Lowwaxx, hatch the perfect potion ever since they team up.

AdMaiora continues his unstoppable journey searching for the finest techno and tech house. To celebrate our 16th release we will mainly focus on the techno world with an exclusive EP from Tuscany born Marco Effe with Amsterdam based 2000 and One on the remix side.

Marco has being pushed to the big audience by Sven Vath in 2012, when he released on Cocoon his most famous track 'Jellied Eels'. In the last couple of years he didn't stop producing music with releases on labels such as Etruria Beat, On Edge Society and SCI+TEC to name a few.

In his debut EP on AdMaiora he smashes with two original techno destroyers. 'Basewax' is an heads down bigroom techno cut to set on fire any dancefloor with a nice combination of regular techno drums and Detroit inspired synths. The second track called 'Rawhere' is another distinctive raw gem which marks Marco as one of the most genuine talent in the techno scene: massive pad shots, rhythmic toms and delayed synths make of this one the next must-have for the summer.

On the remix duties we are more than excited to see the Dutch man himself 2000 and One. The '100% Pure' and 'Area Remote' boss makes of 'Rawhere' an explosive 909 killer remix, exploiting all his experience as a producer. The things go straight and hard without a break until new pads and bassline kick in to twist all the things done before.

BLK DRP is back. This time Michael Klein invited Eduardo de la Calle and TWR72 to support the #2 of his label. Deep groovers and strong smashers in here.

Thirtyonetwenty - the international dialling code for Amsterdam - is the city's hot Techno imprint co-founded by Sandy Huner and Dave Ellesmere in 2007, now run solely by Sandy. For Thirtyonetwentys next strike we welcome back Nick Hollyster & Robin Orlando!

In 2008 Nick Hollyster who is originally from Paris moved to Valencia where he met Robin Orlando, who also happened to live there at the time, the two shared a strong passion for music and a friendship was born, it didn't take long before the duo started colaborating on tracks in the studio, which resulted in various releases on labels such as ThirtyOneTwenty, Plastic City and Resopal Shallware.

For their second release on Thirtyonetwenty they deliver two deep Detroit influenced tracks, also included are two remixes by Techno legends 2000 and One and Steve Stoll, enjoy!

As hard-line as the title threatens, as martial as the artwork displays, as genuine as techno can be - with his latest release on Snork Enterprises, Phil Kieran has created a tremor and once again proves his uncompromising unique sound, for this time somewhere in between iron relentlessness and poisonous composure. In a somewhat extrapolation of "Totally snorked" his
second release on Snork Enterprises "Shred Beef" sharpens his tune up to the peak of intransigently pulsation, with a whiff of "I think I´m a monster". Marching up front with its bass-line, his new tracks pursue a sound that mirrors the mercilessness of true underground techno. Pure. Harsh. Don't give a shit!

For this new release on the parisian label Ondulé recordings, three new producers join the crew.
Hideto Omura from Japan invite us for his deep journey through Berlin, his adopted city .
Next step, Bordeaux in France, with the young producer Suburb Beat associating Joss Moog to offer us the catchy melody of "C'est la vie".
For the B side , let's go to Argentina with the UFO groove by Pedro D'Alessandro to
finaly loosing you in the out tempo break of "Ming" produced by Around7...let's get lost!!

Up first this time round though Neg pairs with Spinetti and Tommy All for title-track 'Twenty Euros For Dancing' a smoothly evolving slice of house fuelled by dusty drums, choppy disco licks and an amalgamation of vocal murmurs. Neg joins Pech for 'Back From Hollanda' next, laying focus on jazz tinged bass lines, fluttering wind instruments and loose organic percussion. Opening the flip is 'Hellon Sun' from Neg and Tommy All, retaining a similar musicality and jazz influence via melodious Rhodes and multi-layered synth lines alongide an infectious sub bass and shuffled rhythms. 'I Trust A Stranger' then rounds out the package, courtesy of Neg and Spinetti, taking a more stripped-back approach this time round with rumbling low-end, minute percussion and bright piano sequences.

Following on from the success of 'From The Dark Volume 1', Cultivated Electronics return with another world-class track-list of artists from across the globe. Masked, modern-electro stalwart The Exaltics, kicks things off with 'I'm There', a moody, shoulder-shuffling roller, while French veteran Maelstrom follows up on the A2 with a paranoid 4x4 synth jam entitled 'Red Squares'. Flip to B1 and Label founder Sync 24 collaborates with Privacy (Lobster Theremin/Klasse Recs) for the haunting yet anthemic 'First Install'. Netherlands-native VC-118A (AKA Mohlao / Multicast Dynamics)steps up with 'Machinarium'. The second disc sees tracks from Zeta Reticula (AKA DJ Umek), Ekman (Trilogy Tapes/Berceuse Heroique),The Operator (with a track taken from the golden days of Djax-Up-Beats) and Obergman (Abstract Forms/New Speak), all executing their freakish spin on CE-style tracks, with paranoid synths and tight, pacy beats set to rock peak-time sets for many months to come.

The latest in GYNLTD vinyl series is this superb brand new EP from Sydney's DJ Hi-Shock under his Advanced Human guise. 'Kilimanjaro' is a hypnotic journey of filtered synth stabs, driving rhythms and pulsating basslines that will appease fans of proper techno. Two magnificent remixes from Black Hats and A.Mochi are also included.

Already supported by Milton Bradley, Steve Parker, GabeeN, Michel Lauriola, Paul Nazca, Unbalance, Philippe Petit, DVS1, Arnaud Le Texier, Ben Sims, Dave Miller, Adam Beyer, Mattias Fridell...

Wats Records crew is happy to announce its next release. Four industrial techno tracks composed by one of the most talented polish DJs and producers, Concept Of Thrill.
The first track of B side 'Materia' is a trippy track with broken beat and ambient synths instead the other three tracks are simply fire for the dance floor with hypnotics sounds and heavy basslines.
A really nice masterpiece of pure techno.

A collaboration of seismic proportions, we present 'The Last Renegade' from Safire, DLR & DRS, backed with two experimental DLR forays called 'Dreaming Of A Place'. Sinister, brooding and shaped with intent, 'The Last Renegade' sees Safire & DLR combining to create a half time beast, with the piercing vocals of DRS a perfect fit. Developing the 'Dreamland' themes from his last album, DLR explores dub and techno influences and more downtempo vibes on two mixes of 'Dreaming Of A Place'. Digressing from the more typical Dispatch format, DLR, along with Safire & DRS,
express their artistic freedom to display the depth in quality within the label today.

For the vinyl heads, there will be a limited run of heavyweight clear vinyl pressed, shrink-wrapped within a bespoke, full colour sleeve.

* With a number of high profile releases already behind him for labels including the legendary XL Recordings and Dusky's 17 Steps imprint, Hugo Massien has carved a sound for himself that sees him bring together elements from house, techno, dubstep and hardcore, all combining force to produce this killer 4-track EP, running at the techno-friendly tempos of around 128bpm.

* 'Advanced Aerial Threat' kicks things off with a fractured half-step rhythm that gives more than a nod to his formative years as a fan of the early UK dubstep movement. Stark, deadly and meticulously constructed, the rhythm taps a pace as wild bass stabs rip across a theatre of sound.

* Next up is the delightful melancholy of 'Ursa Minor' which takes a rolling breakbeat as its backbone before a Reese-like bassline emerges from beneath, rising and empowering. An intimate piano line comes in, providing an introspective element, balancing the otherwise rave-savvy ingredients in place.

* 'Candy Flip' takes things into a more electro direction, providing a reliable work out for the dance floor as the tightly tuned drums and bass hold down the spooky synth stabs.

* Last up, closing the EP is 'Divisions From The Start' where once again we see Hugo's intuitive sense of soundscape grandure, creating a kaleidoscope of moods all strung together with precision drum programming and heavyweight sub work.

* DJ Support from: Shed, Loefah, Pinch & many more.

Mannik has already blown peoples minds with his debut track on Death To Digital (KF70). And his first full EP delivers on that promise. Pure, original hardcore, as it was meant to be. Unusual in concept, sonically devastating, and showing a rare confidence and power for a relatively new artist. This EP sounds like it is 1992 again. It fits somewhere between Sublove, Automation, Hyper On Experience and all NRG without sounding like any of them. Along side Idealz's 'Run The Tune' EP (KF72) they are showing how this renaissance of old skool hardcore can grow and develop without being a simple copy of what came before. This is forward thinking yet rooted in the ethics of the past. This is what Kniteforce is about.

Karl Meier, Ken Meier and Jon Krohn, AKA Stave, are launching a label called Standards & Practices.

The three US artists, who share Chicago roots, have a pretty straightforward mission in mind for Standards & Practices: 'To provide a platform for releases by both Talker and Stave, as well as for material by other like-minded artists and collaborators.' Talker is the Downwards-affiliated duo of Karl Meier—a longtime techno DJ, now based in Berlin, who took part in RA's Playing Favourites series last year—and Krohn, formerly of the experimental rock group Male, who's also been putting out his own brand of abstract, industrialized electronic music as Stave for around four years. Ken Meier, a New York-based graphic designer, partner at Common Name and DJ—and Karl's brother—takes care of art and design for the label.

Standards & Practices' opening move is a Talker 12-inch, Battle Standards, the duo's third full release and first since their 2014 album for Downwards. A three-track EP built with material from their new live set and 'aimed squarely at the dance floor,' it includes a new version of 'My Favorite Colour Is Gold,' from 2015's The Immortal Eye compilation CD. It's due out in late July. Next will be Black Hills, a five-track EP from Stave that's expected in September.

Along with the soon-to-launch label, the Meier brothers recently rebooted their Fear Of Music podcast with some new mixes, including two from Karl.

The Leipzig based Label Ascending Branch is back and it's JiMMi Hendrik who gives us the rush on the floor this time. The EP title Tausendsassa makes it clear and so his new EP comes with 3 strong original tracks from acid to some disco flavoured house music right up to a hot dirty bombshell straight for the club! The main track acerbic sweetness was released on Freude am Tanzen's digital imprint FAT-zig and already gained support from artists like Kerry Chandler, Karotte, Mathias Kaden or Marc Romboy! To round things off, Kleinschmager Audio from Mo's Ferry delivers a deep version of this classic track, which directly get's under your skin! Highly recommended!

repressed !

Roots For Bloom hit release number eleven with another newcomer to the label. Mara Lakour deliver straight up house grooves from France to the UK based label. Clark St is the big hotter here with powerful stabs and synth lines and that ever present prominent low end that Roots For Bloom is becoming known for. The whole EP carries a 90's twang but brought very much up to date in great style.

FarFromNormal are back with a very special record, Sedated EP is by our very own label owner Steve Cutmore. This record hits us with 4 tracks! Three originals and one remix by the well respected Groovesh.

Rooted Series reaches 007 release with Jack Wickham (Infuse / Eastenderz), Swoy (Djebali / Politics of Dancing), Lost. Act & Michel A (Sukhumvit / Salty Nuts) and Bolumar (La Peña / Rooted) As always vinyl only!

After kicking off in some style, Max D. Blas and Alex Piccini's Monologue label follows up with a second sizzling release, this time from YAYA & Lorenzo Chiabotti. The first Monologue release received great feedback from the likes of Villalobos, Raresh and Matthew Dear amongst others, and YAYA and Chibotti, fire out three original cuts here, that also come with a remix from Robert Dietz that ensures this is another massive package.

This pair have teamed up to great effect before now and have picked up praise from the likes of THUMP for their efforts. They have released on essential labels like Desolat and are a fresh sound that always makes its mark.

First up here is 'The Fraud', a dubby house roller with curious synth sounds popping up and raining down the face of the tune. It makes for a colourful cut that will amp up any dance floor. Next up is Raiden, another deep but driving jam with wonky bass, icy hi hat ringlets and steamy female vocals adding fuel to the fire and ensuring crowds will go wild when they hear it. The final original is NoveNove, a bumpy number that shows off this pair's fantastic ability to programme infectious drums as well as layer in cosmic, soul infused synths.

Long time innovator and Desolat and Cadenza artist Robert Dietz then remixes 'The Fraud' into a rubbery, acid laced and tunnelling techno cut that is physical and forceful, and filled with a subtle tension that never lets up.
This is another slick EP from a young label that is already making itself essential listening.

For its second release of 2018, microcastle welcomes the mysterious Cornucopia project back to the label for a new EP. The publicity shy artist first appeared in May of 2016 when 'The Day You Got Older And Stronger' was released courtesy of Gorje Hewek & Izhevski's Shanti Moscow Radio. Shortly thereafter came his microcastle debut with 'Pursuit of the Orange Butterfly'. A lo-fi, organic and deeply musical creation that the underground fell in love with. 2017 was met with just one release, 'Letter For Poly' which launched Lee Burridge's new Tale & Tone imprint. Sitting at #1 in Beatport's overall Top 100 the track was also aired on BBC Radio 1 by Kolsch and by year's end was considered one of 2017's best deep house tracks. Now returning to the comfortable home of microcastle, Cornucopia presents his much anticipated 'Forever Gone' EP.

Spread across three tracks, 'Forever Gone' is a transcendent blend of music and nature, an organic methodology which Cornucopia seems so apt at crafting. Beginning with the evolving textures, exotic drums and tonal creativities of the title cut, the EP then shifts energy to the modular intensity and oriental themes of 'Big Sky', before ultimately melting down to the tranquil, meditative yet spiritually uplifting expedition that is 'Epathia'.

Presenting He/aT for his debut EP on Prodigal Son with two original tracks and
two remixes by Inland.

Unscene Record's debut 12-inch release, 'Theme of Roman EP', features three modernistic tracks from Grecian artists
Kostas Georgoudis and Alex Dimou (in a B-side collaboration). A1-Theme Of Roman (Original Mix) initiates the quest by
creating minimalistic soundscapes of a cinematic nature, translating to listeners as a prismatic chemistry of iridescent
textures, dub, and pitch-shifted voices. A2-Palouse (Original Mix), provides a discourse between vintage aesthetics and
futuristic dynamism, rendering a more abstract and atmospheric composition. On the flip side, track B1-Mozy (Original Mix)
demonstrates a steady rhythmic bass construction complimented by high-hat variations, while giving rise to a primordial
sense of movement and full bodied grooves.
Wholly, 'Theme of Roman EP' delivers a cohesive collection of original mixes, all of which stem from various parts of the
deep house/ tech house/ minimal techno spectrum.
