Techno Vinyl New Releases - News

Having released the anonymous and enormous F**k Yonkers bootleg earlier this year, the Amsterdam based Audio Culture Label is poised to unleash their first official release,,a piece of music which is the result of the collaborative efforts of Dutch wunderkind Presk and Amsterdam's premier tastemaker Cinnaman. In part, Pieter 'Presk' Willems' support is responsible for the label's inception. In a short space of time Presk has built up a solid and impressively distinct sounding catalogue of work released on respected imprints such as Ramp sister label Fourth Wave and Doc Daneeka's Ten Thousand Yen. Making a name for himself with nothing more than his hands and impeccable taste, Yuri 'Cinnaman' Boselie has become somewhat of a musical institution in Amsterdam. He's the man behind the ground breaking Colors nights and is responsible for the equally forward thinking Beat Dimensions compilations.The B-side features two expertly remixed and uniquely different takes on the original, courtesy of non other than Instra:mental's Jon Convex and Ten Thousand Yen head honcho Doc Daneeka.

All in good time - OBSESSION is really the programmatic title of TOBIAS OLIVER´s work of the last years. Two years after his digital WINTER / SUMMER release in 2009 and the HUMAN TECHNOLOGY debut with his electro band DATAWELT, it is really a obsession of him, to bring out his first solo release on vinyl. If you listen to this record, you will be sure, that TOBIAS OLIVER was born in a electro disco somewhere in this world. The analogy to the old school electro sound can not be ignored, when he reuses the drum and percussion sounds of well known drum machines of the past, combined with bass and synthlines, pads and strings of analog synthesizers from the past and the future - at the latest by then - you will think, that you are really OUT OF SPACE !!!

Following on from the dark atmosphere of 'Black Waves', Drums Of Death returns with the next in the sequence: 'Red Waves'. Four tracks of ecstatic electronics displaying it's makers love for techno and house music, all ramped up with big sounds and stripped back arrangements.'Tear The Box Apart' opens the EP with marching snares rolling under a massive lead synth. Toms, snares and claps... the classic palette of the 808 drum machine is well covered but it's the unique poly-rhythmic synth work and angular arrangements that set the track apart from those of retro-fetishists.Cheeky and fun, 'The Jerk' shows that simple elements do a big roller make. So addictive, it's the bouncing bass and buzzing lead that drag you along. A UK Garage groove takes control whilst the hollowed out barrel toms go for the gut.'Venice Beach' crafts bright chords that swirl and build. The infectious melody makes way for pitched bleeps and a towering 'Reese' bassline. Tested extensively in DoD's frenzied live shows, 'Venice Beach' is the glowing, melodic heart at the centre of the adrenaline-fuelled 'Red Waves' collection.In 'Bang The Drum' Drums Of Death talks to us through a vocoder... 'Just bang the drum and kill the noise, mute the synth and then the voice'. Hardly a ballad, this missive represents the newer Drums of Death sound... taught, electronic machine funk. Holding reverence for techno's godfathers but also for it's wayward children like Cristian Vogel, an elastic bassline lurches around rattling 909 hi-hats. 'Bang The Drum' rounds off a highly energetic EP that continues the 'Waves' odyssey of it's composer.
