DUST is an international, amorphous, conceptual techno project known for futuristic acid compositions and noisy, immersive live performances. Founded in 2012, DUST has since performed and/or DJed across the world. Perhaps the most notable element of the live aspect is Greem Jellyfish, whose heavily processed screaming and flamboyant costumes often erupt crowds into techno riots.

Concept record alert! 'Fairlights' by Fort Romeau is a tribute to the - technically minded readers might raise an eyebrow - Australian Computer Musical Instrument that people like Peter Gabriel, Herbie Hancock or Kate Bush fell in love with during the late 1970s/early 1980s. Anyways, if Fort Romeau's current album is like painting with oil, 'Fairlights' is like drawing with permanent marker- to quote the man himself. All based on the word Saku, you will experience an epic journey evolving around heart-breaking dance-floor romanticism, jaw-breaking beat exercises, life-affirming ambient digressions, and a general feeling of spring fever.

MANIK's star has been rising for the past few years, and this latest release on Poker Flat Recordings suggests the young New Yorker has a lot up his sleeve for 2016. Having already dropped dance-floor bombs on the likes of Hot Creations and Ovum, and spun everywhere from Panorama Bar to Womb in Tokyo, the Weights and Measures EP solidifies his emerging reputation as fresh voice on the scene. The release kicks off with 'Thirsty Crow' - a tightly wound groove that breaks down the barriers between house and techno effortlessly. The track builds around an infectious synth melody, and the interplay between various percussive elements - all designed for maximum damage on the dance-floor. 'Weights & Measures' is a deeply acidic affair that finds space for some luscious pads to break the tension, while 'Complexity' riffs off a classic house vibe but throws in some deeply leftfield sounds and rhythms for the heads.

Originally released in 1998 through Kog Transmissions via a very limited CD run, LOOP is proud to present for the first time digitally and on vinyl one of New Zealandâs most acclaimed electronic albums. 'inside a quiet mind' has been lovingly remastered by Chris Chetland, one of the founders of Kog Transmissions, and who handled the original mastering. âSomehow or another, Chris managed to make it releasable 20 years ago, and now he has given new life to the album by a further smoothing of the edges, and polishing it to a level of shininess where it even sounds good in my uteâÂ. - denver mccarthy 'inside a quiet mind' is a modern classic of the electronic genre, and one which can finally be experienced to a standard befitting itâs quality. A forgotten gem no more, it is an album that holds an important place in NZ electronic music history. Stepping through deep house, glitch and techno, and originally made across bedrooms in Auckland and Brisbane, inside a quiet mind isnât a collection of songs, it is a complete album, and one which was created as such. Across 11 songs and over one hour, it is a journey across an electronic spectrum, and one which is best enjoyed in full. Originally created inside the thriving electronic scene of the late 90âs, 'inside a quiet mind' is an album which wears itâs influences proudly â the electro/synth heavy Detroit sound, and the minimal-techno of Basic Channel and Maurizio from Berlin. As Denver McCarthy himself matured and grew from his late teens to early twenties, so did his sound. âYou will be tinkering away with a sound, a chord, a rhythm, and then something will catch your attention, something that sounds good to you. From there, itâs just a matter of adding more elements until you get what occurs to you as a finished piece. You can feel the anxiety build as the song unfolds, and you wonder whether or not you will be able to resolve the piece and bring out what needs to come out for it to be something worthy and memorable. I have recorded so many songs, but only a small percentage I actually like and stand the test of time.â - Denver McCarthy

These are two alternate versions of two of the more popular tracks from Pale Blue's LP, The Past We Leave Behind. The record was a slow burn, but eventually One Last Thing became the sleeper track. It has been on playlists from the likes of Seth Troxler, Pachanga Boys and John Talabot. It seems to have become one of the more popular closing tracks this year. With that in mind, Mike decided to turn it on its head and turn it in to an opening track... Distance To The Waves was tweaked into an acid floor filler. Simonetti uses multiple 303's chained to add melody at the most unexpected places. We also stuck the original versions on the vinyl as well for extra pleasure.

We don't have much info to give about Vicram, partly because the artist doesn't want us to communicate the few things we know. But this is his first EP. It's super raw - not necessarily rough. Raw like a piece of sushi, an unpolished unvarnished beautiful piece of wood, raw like those bare drum machines and simple acid lines. Almost naive, like those early 90s IDM-techno record we cherish but with a very different angle. As usual, we liked Vicram because we don't really understand how he makes his music.

French producers DJ Deep and Traumer pair up for their debut on Radio Slave's Rekids.
A key component in Parisian techno since the '90s, DJ Deep's influence is indisputable whether it's helming Deeply Rooted House Records, launching his own rotary DJ mixer series or his numerous appearances on Tresor Records alongside GETTRAUM founder Roman Poncet, who appears on this release as Traumer.
'La Valle La B' comes in three forms. The 'La Deep Mix' is an echoing number complete with rhythmic percussion and rumbling bass, whilst 'La Slave Mix' is a glitchier alternative featuring various subtle nuances and otherworldly atmospherics. Finally 'La Spicy Mix' concludes the package with a focus on piercing synths and a compelling groove.

Makam returns to Dekmantel Records with his first full-length album for the Amsterdam based label. Blanken's ongoing search for fresh sounds, textures and rhythms has lead him to Than Sadet, a gorgeous piece of work that takes his sound into new directions.
That Sadet displays a refinement of Makam's sound. The music is highly tactile, with an emphasis on the surroundings of the environment in which it was created. Blanken: ''Than Sadet is a secluded beach on an island in Thailand. A mysterious atmosphere haunts it. It's windy and the weather is always a bit worse compared to the rest of the isle. There are many cliffs and you can't swim because the waves are too high. Four years ago I visited Than Sadet for the first time and I've been coming back ever since. At one point I decided to bring my studio equipment. For a week, I dedicated my days to making music. Those sketches formed the basis of the album.''
The inspiration on Than Sadet is obvious. From billowing percussion thru windswept strings to passages of strange bird calls, and across desolate tracts of calving synthesizers to a climax with a finale of petrifying thunder drums. The levels of dramatic suspense are ski-high, and mostly downbeat and mid-tempo grooves operate beyond the dancefloor.
''Each track is based on a particular Than Sadet aesthetic. For example, 'Mr. Singh' is a masseur on the beach who uses fire while doing his shiatsus. 'Buddha's Bridge' is a wooden bridge that leads to an impressive Buddha monument; Seven Kings' is an ode to a local waterfall. Tracks like 'Mai Pen Rai' and 'When Light Gives You Hope' are representative for Than Sadet. I tried to create an introspective album that does what the island did to me: it puts life into perspective.''

June 2016 sees Freerange Records celebrate 20 years at the top. The label, run by Jamie 'Jimpster' Odell and Tom Roberts, is marking the occasion with the summer release of a carefully curated and lovingly assembled 20 track, five vinyl box set featuring exclusive new music from associates old and new, as well as with a
worldwide events series.
Over the last two decades, generations of DJs and dancers have gotten down to the Freerange sound. Initially that was a mix of sample-heavy productions incorporating live musicians, flirtations with the broken beat sound and some ground breaking fidget house cuts from Switch and Trevor Loveys. Then, and most enduringly, the label settled into a rich vein of deep house. Shur-I-Kan, Kirk Degiorgio, Milton Jackson, Trackheadz, Stimming as well as Jimpster ushered in this most recent chapter, and in turn the label has helped make household names of many more previously unknown talents from Detroit Swindle to Manuel Tur, Andre Lodemann to Tony Lionni. Wherever you look amongst the hundreds of EP and LP releases on
Freerange, you will find nuance and evolution, dance floor sensibility and genuine emotional impact.
That same sense of timelessness characterises this new compilation, which is packed with great music from the likes of KiNK, Pittsburgh Track Authority, Kuniyuki, Kito Jempere, Soul of Hex, Clavis, Detroit Swindle, and of course Jimpster himself, as well as a whole host of other Freerange regulars. There are many highlights across
the 20 track package including a warm and skipping house cut from Bulgarian live specialist KiNK, a typically slow burning and beautifully arcing epic from Andre Lodemann and spaced out jack tracks from classically inclined Liverpudlian Tony Lionni.
Big name stars like Detroit Swindle return in style with a robust and acid laced banger, the ever-underrated Milton Jackson builds something melodically magical and Pittsburgh Track Authority layer up majestic string stabs and rubbery bass into soul infused future music. Jimpster himself bolsters the whole package both solo and with Luv Jam as well as remixing Tim Toh, and on each occasion proves why he is one of the pivotal figures of the UK deep house scene.
Few labels make it to twenty releases let alone twenty years strong. Often doing so without making any real fuss, now is the time that Freerange Records deserves its time in the spotlight, and this compilation more than proves that.

Although this is the first release Vin Sol has put out through Ultramajic you can't help but appreciate their synchronicity, both the label and Vin Sol have an uncompromising vision for their work.
Its been a busy year for Vin Sol. After inaugurating his own imprint 'Club Lonely' in May, he went on to release two more EP's.
Now the San Francisco native is back again with his debut EP on Ultramajic.
Although this is the first release Vin Sol has put out through Ultramajic you can't help but appreciate their synchronicity, both the label and Vin Sol have an uncompromising vision for their work. Ultramajic's overarching aesthetic and dedication to cutting edge, energetic house and techno and Vin's lively veneration of old school midwestern jack tracks sit perfectly together.
'Instinct' is a straightforward introduction to the EP, bleeps and a pounding kick drum carry the track to a frenzied finale. '1314' ushers in a darker atmosphere, born out of a combination of simple elements Vin manages to twist and build a unique energy. In 'Can't Cope' Vin utilizes a complex drum pattern to drive the track forward, never losing the momentum of the dance floor. Longtime friend Matrixxman steps up for a remix of the title track. Taking things back to basics Matrixxman strips it back for a pitched down minimal intro before reintroducing the bleeps and cymbals.

After almost two decades, Dan Piu's album Self Education (MOTO 003) finally gets the vinyl treatment it deserves: The best tracks extracted from DAT tapes, pressed on wax and renamed to Living in Fear for Cartulis Music's fourth release. Even though the original and incredibly exclusive CD was heard and appreciated in the years around its release in 1999 from DJs such as Jeff Mills and Carl Craig, it was virtually impossible to own (only 30 copies were made, ever). Despite its rarity and status, Cartulis choses this masterpiece for one principal reason: The music. An exhibition of an innovative era, of heavy duty machinery (Roland Juno 60, Roland Juno 106, Roland TR-909 and EMU Vintage Keys, just to name a few) and of fine craftsmanship (using his own samples and playing the keys himself), the album opens your mind and ears to interconnecting styles of ambient atmospheres, electronic-instrumental hip hop, and signature dance-floor killers "Self Education" and "Living in Fear". Not only for fans of Dan Piu and his subsequent labels (Moto Music, deepArtSounds, No Acting Vibes) but for any music aficionado that appreciates a deeply cult classic.

Rising Amsterdam-based star Esther Duijn leads the charge with a hypnotic, understated slice of dub techno that grooves in all the right places. Label boss Brothers' Vibe then steps up with a sharp-edged, percussion led workout that blooms into a fulsome, acidic jam laced with techno futurism and pure machine soul. German production duo youANDme are regular collaborators with Brothers' Vibe, and here they join forces for the tough, drum-pounding Playing With Toys. Rodriguez also takes the opportunity to unveil the Silent Rodgerz alias, championing the Toad Red vision with a daring, experimental trip through abstractmodular-synthesizer processes that build towards a jacking rhythmic throw-down.
Celebrating the 20th edition of House Masters with a stunning new collection from one of electronic music's most revered pioneers.

'I have felt total freedom in electronic music because the 4/4, for me, is the bridge into the unknown in a way: you can do anything in between two bass drums, and they hold it together. You can do the craziest sound and put a bass drum there and everyone loves it.' Henrik Schwarz.
House Masters Henrik Schwarz is a hand-picked selection of tracks and remixes from his peerless vault, with Schwarz given complete freedom to include those records he believes best represent his career in electronic music.
Ultimately, words can only do so much justice to music of this calibre, so if you're looking for the only definite collection from a master of his trade you need look no further.

IULY.B returns to Visionquest this March with the 'Surreal Experience' EP accompanied by a remix from Bass Culture's D'Julz.
Romania's IULY.B is rapidly becoming a household name in the realms of stripped-back, immersive house music of late, a regular feature on Hector's Vatos Locos imprint and at the label's events, as well as releasing material on Bouq, Claque Musique and of course Visionquest where he returns to here following his 'Observatory' EP in November of 2016.
This time round IULY.B launches the 'Surreal Experience' with a murky, dub-tinged composition entitled 'Sci Fry', laid out over eight minutes with snaking synth whirrs, sweeping dub echoes and tumbling sub bass tones before Bass Culture head-honcho D'Julz reworks the original into a more robust, groove-drive interpretation via swinging rhythms, stuttering sample chops and a thunderous low end drive.
'Moonberry' opens the flip side on a more reduced tip with bumpy organic percussion, rounded sub swells and an amalgamation of sonar blip melodies to create a dynamic and hypnotic workout, 'Time Traveller' then closes the release via expansive atmospherics, subtly evolving acidic synth licks and loose shuffling drums.

Wild jams on the classic Linndrum, a driving bassline and a gated, almost out of control North African sounding leadsynth form the basic ingredients of this exceptional new record by Thee J Johanz
Wild jams on the classic Linndrum, a driving bassline and a gated, almost out of control North African sounding leadsynth form the basic ingredients of this exceptional new record by Thee J Johanz. The Fire in The Disco version adds more spices, like moody FM pads and an infectious disco vibe, ready to put many floors on fire. The record is garnished by the 'market version' of Bafrique, which is more like a dub/ambient excursion with environmental samples taken on the Vagator market in India. Artwork by Afrobot.
Kanja Records is sincerely honored to present its second vinyl release, based on a concept called Sunday Mornings. With this series of releases we will focus on that warm up, early morning, after party gems and slowly fading away from peak time music. Our philosophy behind this concept is that the focus goes to the tracks being timeless, and music that you can listen to in every time of day and night. Music that offers a vast variety, but in the end coming together in that sweet and warm morning glory.
Aishuu by Shintaro.D was definitely our first pick for the first track on this release. As the first sides of our releases will be oriented on a more housy sound, he perfectly captures this philosophy in his track.
Fo Rest by Consep perfectly sits beside our opening track, again confirming that the first side of our release will be soulful, with all around housy vibe. We are really excited to have another member of the Ukrainian scene on our release, because we are really in love with their production.
Benshou by Kensuke Yasuhara is a really impressive track, with a breaky vibe and beautiful pads and is perfect for our B side, as we like it to be more minimalistic. Shintaro.D and Kensuke Yasuhara strongly represent the current Japanese scene and we are honored to have this guys on our label.
The Bitch Of Glitch by Claire is the final track on our second vinyl release. Being a bit different from other tracks on our release gives it that special place, as it nicely rounds up the variety that has been presented on this release.

Brighton based analogue synth junkie and producer Andrew Whitwell marks the launch of his Mode7 Records label with a standout 4 track EP of classic U.S. inspired House music. Andrew Whitwell is a self-confessed hoarder of vintage studio kit and has, over the years, built up an impressive collection at his Brighton based studio, much of which features on this stellar EP.
The record itself was actually inspired by a decade old recording that Andrew had shelved during his university days, the track 'Station' caught the ear of local DJs and has been revived here with a new recording featuring the wealth of Whitwell's studio hardware. The 'Station EP' is the first release from the Mode7 Records imprint which will act as a vessel for the owner's music and is a follow up to Andrew's previous work under the Van der Funk moniker.
The release opens with the excellent 'Xeno', an evocative slice of Detroit influenced deep house with a perfect fusion of stuttering drums, warm pads and attention grabbing synth parts. Next up we have the old school sounds of 'Zanoni' which marries acidic squelches with cavernous breaks that transport you back to the warehouses and
big tops of the early nineties.
Penultimate cut 'Yamaoka' takes things into electro territory with a deep and brooding rhythmic workout underpinned by rich bass and emotive pads. Finally we come to title track 'Station', a superb piece of deep and delicious house that was apparently inspired by the industrial architecture of Brighton train station. 80's Chicago inspired drum sounds rub shoulders once again with the ever present pads whilst subtle stabs, delays and FX swirl around in perfect unison, sublime stuff! This is a wonderful EP of electronic music that takes cues from the past and delivers a sound that is just perfect for the moment.

Keep your eyes open because this September the mighty Serkal imprint drops its 8th vinyl release coming from Saved Records' Clio and backed up with Luca Agnelli's remix.
New York has always been famous for its Garage and House scene. Serkal has put the American city on the Techno map, releasing a series of quality records coming from producers all over the world. In September they present another strong package, 'Leave Me Alone EP', this time out on physical support, featuring the talented Berlin - based but French - born producer Clio. After releasing on Saved Record, Clio now offers up three tracks which move towards different genres, from Dub techno to raw House, clearly showcasing the producer's influences. The title track is a brainy and dark House cut driven by straight grooves, ethereal vocals and deep pad melodies. Desolat and Be As One's Luca Agnelli offers up his version of 'Leave Me Alone', a monstrous Techno dance-floor killer Berghain inspired. Following is 'Wanna Tell You', a melanchonic raw House track in which sampled vocals are fused with industrial sounding bass lines. The EP closes with 'What Is Life', an hypnotic Tech House tune in pure Serkal's style.
Vinyl collector this one is for you.

Dinky makes her evolution from inaugural DJ to singer songwriter and front stage performer with new album 'Dimension D' out in June on Visionquest. Single 'Falling Angel' is first to drop with remixes from two elite producers, Matthew Styles, who coproduced the album, and Pépé Bradock. Both heighten Dinky's layered ethereal vocals and mesmerising melodies with their own movement and elements of dark and light.
Her sister named Alejandra Del Pilar Iglesias Rivera Dinky at birth. Born and raised in Santiago, Chile, as a child she studied Ballet and the Suzuki method of piano before relocating to New York to become a contemporary dancer. Her drive to make music brought her to Berlin a decade ago where she quickly became a dominant force in dance music, making her mark through releases on Carpark, Cocoon, Ostgut, and the critically acclaimed 'Anemik' album in 2009 on Mathew Jonson´s Wagon Repair. Her fifth studio album, 'Dimension D' sees her evolve into singer-songwriter and performer and take on a new musical direction. Long term friends with the Visionquest collective from their hedonistic days residing in Berlin, Dinky's fresh approach fits within their ethereal and otherworldly style and follows the Footprintz album earlier this year.
Consistently on point DJ and musician Matthew Styles coproduced and mixed 'Dimension D' and will perform the album live in a series of dates this summer.
French DJ/Producer and prolific remixer Pépé Bradock has been an enigmatic figure on the scene since the early 90s always essential listening for anyone into deep house with a magic off kilter touch.

DJ OIL is an old friend, musical activist from the wrongly dreaded city of Marseille. Some of you may remember Troublemakers and Lionel records for BBE.
'Rain' features Saul Williams in a troubled stomp. Voodoo house if you want to call it something. It's turned into a electro monster by 'Radioactive Man'. Cold Europe under the sun or a frozen Southern island. Who knows We got lost on the way. 'Space Opera' and 'Hypnosis' push the boundary of psychedelia. Slow burners but potent mushrooms. Warped politics.

This record was specially made for Mary Go Wild. It is a collage of the finest jams and sketches created by the loveliest bunch imaginable. It is collected, arranged and fiddled with by Frits. Love goes out to all involved and contributed: Iron Galaxy, Malin Genie, Axel Boman, Darling, Ben Westbeech, Celoy, Theravada, Boris Werner, Andeh Lang, Yaleesa Hall, Medlar, Hodini, Jordan CGZ, Chevel, Scissorworks, Detroit Swindle, Know Va, Larry The Cat, Maximill, Mosca, San2, Tom Ruijg, San Proper, Urulu, Laurel Halo, Viktor Palmer, Kornel Kovacs, Ally Howie, William Kouam Djoko, MLIR, Red Rackem, Ewald, Presk, Scott Franka & Kaap, Firestone, Wolf Music, DJ+ and Peel Seamus."A while ago the guys from Mary Go Wild got in touch with me about doing a record. Mary Go Wild is a record and book store based in the Red Light District in Amsterdam. They explained to me they had started something they called the vinyl club. Basically a group of subscribers that pay yearly to receive a random record every month, and all these records had something special. I absolutely loved this idea.First of all, there's the surprise element. Secondly - and this really appealed to me - the fact that people paid upfront for something they didn't know what it was till they received it in the mail. To me this meant I could produce anything I wanted without having to worry about break even or sales. And that thought is exactly what shaped this BODOMRGWLD series.
For the first edition I remember there were a few emails from the vinyl club subscribers.One stating: "I connected my turntable to my amplifier. The speakers are also working in the same way that I normally listen to music to. But for some reason the record you send me still sounds out of tune. Am I doing something wrong"
For the upcoming BODOMRGWLD02 I was speaking to other producers about a possible contribution. I know a lot of producers who make dance floor music, they're very good at it, but also make the most brilliant non house/techno skits.
I set out to collect this and I was absolutely amazed by the number of great producers I found willing to contribute and also allow me to fiddle and play around with it to make it into the record it is now.It turned out to be almost 40 minutes long. One of the first pieces I was sent was by Adam (Iron Galaxy). I played a gig at Mutek in Montreal and Adam did a Boiler Room there on that same day. He performed a great live show and when his 60 minutes where up he improvised a beatless outro. Hearing that outro I knew it had to be on this record. Another great thing is that I got my dad to work on this project as well. He has my grandparent's old tube radio from the 50s in his study, still in perfect original shape. I asked him to jam about on that thing switching from short to long wave etc. Its so interesting to hear what sort of sounds you can make on that just by tuning. The whole take he delivered truly sounded like an avant-garde piece."
