Techno Vinyl New Releases - News

PRZ strikes on eudemonia with an acid-influenced 4-track EP. The Tel Aviv based artist who runs Chateau Royal and is a resident from the oldest running party series in the Israeli metropolis called ‘PAG’ shows his darker side with a haunting blend of Italo House, Electro and Techno.

The final release on Fundamental Records is a special one. Not only is it a new album by Rhys Celeste aka Microlith, but also includes the first three albums that Rhys composed during 2015 and 2016. Three albums that were never released on vinyl before. This beautiful tribute to him is brought to you in a special way as a beautiful ultra-clear pressing with hand numbered full transparent plexiglass jacket. Of course this project has been authorized and has full support of the Rhys family.

Acid freak-outs and gangsta electro by the cult figure from Rotterdam South, Hannibal Peck.

Umwelt returns to his own New Flesh Records imprint with his unique EP to date this year. "Escape The Future" sees the French producer concluding his Future trilogy started in 2015 with "When Future And Past Collapse" and pursued in 2017 with "Encoding The Future" on Netherlands based Shipwrec. Fuelled by industrial and post-apocalyptic atmospheres, Umwelt's brand new 12" gathers together all of the elements that made his dark sound so recognizable, a digest of complex yet dancefloor rhythms fused into insane synth oscillations and Rave influences.
Melodic "Escape The Future" is a much anticipating five tracker blending Umwelt's unique aesthetic and style, obsessed by a pessimistic vision of the future.

Following on from his Mud EP, one of this year’s most distinctive, body- and mind-contorting dancefloor 12”s, Haunter Records boss Heith fires up his Saucers private press for a KILLER collaboration with longtime sparring partner Weightausend. Seriously, this is the biz - broken, bionic, 4D dancehall / tekno battle-droids that carve out disruptive new geometries in the dance without once dropping the ball or getting on your tits. Feels like there’s a million different going things on in each track, and yet H&W build air-flow into their creations - there is room for reflection and bliss-out amid the tangles of twisted metal and reptile blood spatter! Massive tip for anyone into that recent Pharmakustik record, Mike Dred & Peter Green's Virtual Farmer...but this is totally it’s own thing. With suitably stomach-turning artwork by the great Tim Ryan.

Malin Genie welcomes an extensive EP treat from Lava Lap, an emergent producer with an affinity for the kind of braindance that will have fans of Jodey Kendrick beating their drum machines with approval. The acid is slippery, the structures ever-shifting and a wealth of expression spills out of every bar. There are faster drum & bass paced bits, melancholy detuned electro and much more besides. Far from just being clever music though, it's also amazingly emotional and so impeccably produced. Any electronica head should be all over this.

The label say: Raw, melodic and urgent. That is what Kmyle and his “Come Back” 12” are about.

Hailing from the South of France, Kmyle needs to be urgently reevaluated and appreciated. All three songs here are complex, harmonious and relentless. They create the landscapes for the dancefloors we so desperately need.

Kmyle is the future of techno and "Come Back" is the second release on Still Techno.

There's no doubt that Luca Piermattei is one of the most exciting young producers coming from the ever-growing Italian scene. The Seekers family member has been steadily releasing on some of the most influential labels of the moment, including his own imprint Polarity, which he runs with Gabrø, Frankfurt's HardWorkSoftDrink and EYA to name a few. His latest output is Colt Music's sixth release, in which he delivers four bass-driven, minimalistic tracks that fly effortlessly between house and electro in his very own signature style.

Yoshi Records is back with a bangin´ Electro 5-Tracker by Nino Šebelić. For lovers of carefully orchestrated modular escapades, this probably is not the right record. For lovers of stone cold Electro vibes straight from the streets, this is the right record.

Tribute to B Boy culture...

Paula left crossing each river twice, knowing there would be nothing to come back to and on the way each of her steps continuously sonicated and extruded to finally collapse into the emptiness she once came from.

Over a period spanning almost twenty years, "Rebuts" (the French word for "thrown away", "forgotten") is bringing back to life 8 titles that have been put aside during the different moments of creation of Le Syndicat Électronique.

Hammer hits glass. Glass goes smash. Thunder and lightning, return to the future.

Throughout his vast career, the New York based Australian composer JG Thirlwell has adopted many masks as a means of infiltrating and subsequently subverting a wide range of pop cultural forms. His work under the Foetus moniker has taken on everything from big band to opera to noise-rock. Steroid Maximus embraced exotica and the world of soundtracks, while his Manorexia project continued his quest to the outer limits of contemporary composition and musique concrete. Thirlwell has also carved out a significant output in the field of the soundtrack via the large body of work created for the animated television shows Archer and The Venture Bros. In addition he has been commissioned to create compositions by such notables as Kronos Quartet, Bang On A Can, Alarm Will Sound, String Orchestra of Brooklyn and many others.

Now we have ‘Omniverse’, the second release under the moniker Xordox. Xordox is a synthesizer-based project, and on this evocative album we see the project branch into many new avenues. The science fiction element brushes up against crime noir, even veering into areas that could well fit in the video game soundtrack genre. With an audacious attitude and an arsenal of machines Thirlwell serves up a selection of thrilling retro-future mind capsules. This is music made from a life saturated in culture, both underground and mainstream, high and low. Tense sequencing and noir tinged keyboard lines invoke a powerful visual image of films and memory, of screens and speakers, of sound and space, all entering the cosmos and the subsequent galactic race. Thirlwell’s decades long exploration of sampling and sequencing, composing and ingesting a daunting amount of audio and visual artworks speaks volumes for the bold assimilations exposed here. ‘Between Dimensions’ lays out a tense theme which starts off like a score to a a crime thriller before morphing into a simulacra of Kraftwerk scoring a video game. The living ghosts of Giorgio Moroder and John Carpenter haunt ‘Oil Slick’ as it permeates wormholes, updating lifeforms with its stealth sequencing and tense momentum.

‘Omniverse' is a synthesised soundtrack journey, one which embraces past forms whilst reshaping them for the new unknown. ‘Omniverse' is a thrilling liquid ride through fear and hope, and like all the best of Thirlwell’s output, is simply one hell of an enjoyable journey to take.

Tensor Norm is an spanish label founded by Mario Ortega (Wavelet) and Eduardo Jiménez (Sigma_ALgebra) whose objective is to edit electronic dance music that is situated in the fuzzy boundaries of the electro, IDM and techno genres among others. The search for new sounds, dark atmospheres and breaks are its sign of identity.

TRUST returns with four cutting-edge transmissions by Versalife (aka Delsin's Conforce). Classic and experimental electro meet high-impact techno ('Recirculator') for a hefty dose of panglossian optimism. Don't miss.

While playing Lyckle de Jong’s album to friends, it seemed it would also be a good opportunity to get some of them on the same record together and create a remix EP. So, three friends were tasked with reworking tracks from Lyckle’s 'bij Annie op bezoek'. The original album was inspired by a trip to see a retired and quarantined pensioner friend called Annie, in Leiden. Using some of the field recordings from that visit, Lyckle created a soundworld of Annie’s life and apartment, which exists in a time all of its own, floating somewhere between old photos and the present day.

The remixes develop this otherworldly atmosphere. BREW helmsman Robert Bergman runs 'TV Oranje' through his machines to create a proper dubbed-out EBM chugger, twisting the walls of the club in on itself to psychedelic effect. Meanwhile, with 'voor een flat in de Merenwijk', Peter Graf York takes the soundtrack elements and delivers two versions: one an industrialised metal machine stepper, the other a pixelated stomper that could have dancers bashing their heads on the ceiling, Mario-style, if they were powered-up enough. Flippen Disks’ Monty goes straight for the kick drum jugular, weaving brain-melting pads and bass oscillations into thick dancefloor carpet on the track 'Trappenhuis'.

The 4th edition in ZwaarteKracht's critically acclaimed series, Arsonist Recorder invites once more 3 dedicated fellow producers with some serious firepower.

Credit 00 returns to Pinkman with his trademark odd-beat electro chants. While each track tells a different story, what persists throughout the EP is the streetpunk attitude and nonconformity of the king of rats. His 'Protest Love Songs' bows to no shiny idol, and sweeping the ashes of utopia tames the apocalypse with no fear.

Limited edition of 100 numbered and hand stamped copies with a 30x30 cm digital print insert of the original cover artwork in a clear jacket.

Self-styled ‘house husband, record producer’, DMX Krew, continues his effortless stretch of releases that date back to the early 90s, with a new album for Hypercolour.

His deft melodies and mechanical, electro-tinged beats have made for some classic albums in his repertoire, from his incredible run of albums for Rephlex Records, up to 2020’s ’Ghost Bubbles’ long player for Terrestrial Funk. And so ‘Loose Gears’ marks DMX Krew’s fourth album for British stalwarts, Hypercolour, and fans will not be disappointed.

Armed with an arsenal of hardware, and a head full of futuristic visions, ‘Loose Gears’ collects eleven tracks of the customary quality we have come to expect from DMX Krew.

From the funk laden ‘Solar Transit’ to bleepy chugger ‘Dejected Ambient Twerp’, the vibrant synths and spongy rhythms of ‘Torpedo Tube’ to the beatless wiggle of ‘Xpansion 2’, there’s much in store to be savoured on ‘Loose Gears’, as DMX Krew serves up another fine selection of electronic goodies.

LPost-Heretic Dracula X Chronicles is Nicola Kazimir's debut album. It features 30min full of diverse, rough, evil, melancholic electronic music compositions either partly sampled out of important melodies in his life or fully produced by him. Post-Heretic Dracula X Chronicles LP draws from contemporary and past cultural references evolving around institutional-critique, occultism and dividualism and manifests those via metatags or sonic compositions.

Nicola Kazimir is a part of the collective Les Points based in Zürich, Switzerland.
His art/music draws from 90's rave utopias, decentralized & dividual thought, institutional-critique, occultism, progressive & accessible frameworks as showcased at their offspace Mikro -
a physical room which has no doors and opening times during exhibitions and raves - making an institution available to all social layers.
His recordlabels "Les Points" and the newly founded "Gentrified Underground" appropriate those ideas and transfer them to the distribution channels of electronic music.
Nicola refuses genre-stigmas and explores a vast number of genres in his dj-sets and productions - his newest LP "Post-Heretic Dracula X Chronicles" being an example of that diversity.

The next release in our 'Perennial' series is from veteran producer Lee Norris, also known as
Metamatics, the pseudonym under which he has spent more than two decades creating
melodic IDM and sophisticated electro.

Norris is an artist who warrants his cult following with an extensive catalogue and countless
monikers, including his main work as Metamatics and alternative projects Norken, Nacht Plank,
Ishqamatics and Autumn Of Communion. This unflagging artist with an enviable track record
behind him has released material on labels such as Delsin, Hydrogen Dukebox, Dot, Numbers
and Clear, as well as running his own record labels Neo Ouija, ...txt, XTT Recordings and
Nagual.

His seminal EP series '01', '02', '03' and '04' was originally released between 1997 and 1998 on
the now defunct but influential Clear label. Compiled as 'A Metamatics Production', the tracks
breathed fresh air into the global IDM scene and were comprised of crystal clear futuristic
sounds, flirting with complex and funky drum & bass that carried both UK and Detroit
influences, a true masterpiece.

More than twenty years since its original release, Lapsus Records is proud to present the
British producer's original debut album 'A Metamatics Production', released in full and on vinyl
for the first time. All tracks on this special collectors double-pack colour vinyl release have been
remastered and will include a limited edition insert.
