Techno Vinyl New Releases - News

Part Two

Blue VINYL

Bondage-Music welcome back Mihai Popoviciu, to present his new “Azul” EP comprising four original compositions from the Romanian artist, the release contains 2 vinyl only tracks.

Memento Recordings is proud to welcome on board the new comer N-Gel, with his stunning “No Matter Who I’m” E.P..
On the full-length of the A side, “Pure” juicy gurgles synthetic sequences over a court of crispy old-school drums, slowly ascending into an overcoming roll climax.
On side B “Electro Boogie” is a lively stimulating morodesque ride invaded by a catchy arpeggio and enjoyable drums.
The E.P. ends with the refreshing 808 splashes of “Seven”, a dance floor killer bridging the darker side of electronica with full bodied jacky functionalism.

The Analogue Cops are back on Memento, after their acclaimed remix of Francesco Farfa “Synchronicty 13”, with “Lucretio versus Marieu Vol. 1”.
This will be the first chapter of a series dedicated to a tidy compromise-less selection of their most groundbreaking club oriented tracks. On Lucretio’s side, “Accelerating Osc” is a minimalistic relentless techno cut that explores algorithmic sequencing and the boundaries of real-time delay manipulation in Kyma; pounding away, “Neon 3” is a furious peak-time ride with jacking drums, sharp hi-hats and worrisome hypnotic synthesizers.
Marieu’s side is a slower paced groove affair focused on his distinguishing seductive use of sampling: “Alterate Indigo” festive bass line and enthusiastic cymbals blossom with an enchanting blues piano and an handful of filtered quirks, while “Room Mate” combine hot vocal hooks and a funky bass-line with a massive kick-drum.

For their twelfth installment, Scatcity welcomes the duo Colossio & Sobek. Label head Skatman also makes an appearance on remix duty.

A versatile EP that combines the influences of both artists, low-tempo, tribal grooves, bi-zarre vocals, and deep melodies are the core of this EP named "Fragmentado".

‘Head In the Clouds’ is a vision of a young man's hopes and dreams as to how he views the world filled with positivity.
‘Ari’ is a very flirtatious cut, spunky, whimsical and jolly piece that is reminiscent of someone giving their farewell to their family right before embarking on an adventure showcasing a sense of love, life, and home. strong and delicate all at the same time.

The B-side - Arrival
Odette delivers her take on what the current tone and mood can be felt throughout the old country where everything, despite the adversities, continues to move forward at a steady pace, deep and eclectic, as it's showcased in ‘Creme de Violette’.
Culminating in smooth jazz, hip-hop, deepness that can be considered a soothing lullaby. Perfectly arranged as proper send off to a short but enlightening trip into the new sounds of the old country in form of the ‘Tough Enough’.

The vinyl as whole tells the story of two minds meeting and sharing their thoughts, hopes and dreams in an intelligent, cohesive way balancing their mutual commonalities and differences.

Subosc announces a new vinyl release by Tin Man & Foreign Material.

Born in 1978 and raised in California, Tin Man started releasing records in 2004 and established his reputation as a solid techno producer, with impactful releases on labels such as Acid Test, Killekill, and Pomelo.

Foreign Material has a Conservatoire and History background, which shaped his interest in dark atmospheres and techno music. His spirit of techno is a mix of ancient myths and futuristic visions. He is known for his releases on Curle, Norite and Supercinema.

Together they deliver a multi-faceted collaboration with 3 original tracks that provide a lush, hypnotic, mysterious, yet enticing voyage that spans across the functional and mental spectrum.
The narration is intense, at traits metaphysical and dramatic, and always evocative.

From a technical perspective, the artists provide an interesting blend of monophonic and polyphonic synths with percussive elements.
Delays and reverbs also play an important role, adding an interesting density and spatial awareness to the ground structure.
The percussive modeling is precisely coordinated with the synth action, leading to a peculiar form of ritualistic techno with stargazing effects.

In addition to the original tracks, Claudio PRC provides an impressive signature ambient techno reinterpretation of "Drowning" with an evolving and energetic yet atmospheric attitude.

A special artwork hand-designed by Paw Grabowski complements this full cover vinyl release.
The EP is a true timeless collector item available as a limited pressing. Don't miss it!

This beauty will be available in September. 180 Gramm vinyl only - highly recommended!

Next up on Nico Stojan and Acid Pauli’s Ouïe label is the Tia EP by Cologne-based producer Jonathan Kaspar. Fitting perfectly into the label’s roster, as the 2018 predecessor Mera, this is three tracks of tricky, leftfield dance music that will appeal to the more adventurous electronic music aficionados. Lead track Tia is a brooding epic, unfolding in unexpected ways as the rougher edges give way to dreamy pads and a tight, loopy groove keeps things in motion. Bigna shares a similar aesthetic - an intricate percussive groove provides the foundation for some minimalistic synth explorations and textures. Exclusively on the vinyl release is Nea - artfully balancing dancefloor prowess with esoteric instrumentation and a minimal aesthetic. Elin rounds off the digital release, a slow burning heater with live percussion, thick bass and atmospheric pads and blasts of noise.

B2 = vinyl exclusive

Melodeum Records returns with it’s third carefully curated limited press composed by Birdsmakingmachine featuring an extended remix by Alci on side B. All 3 tracks on this dashing minimal EP are pure groovers yet each one stands out in uniqueness true to the Artist’s signature sound.

Its aim is to host music of artists showing strong musical identity with influences ranging from minimal to deeper shades of techno and groovy electro, the key point being blending those influences to create something innovative and personal.

Luminaere is glad to introduce its first release, counting label founder Daïf and respected French producer Lowris on it. This first record is an insight to the label's will to show plurality in its sounds influences. Daïf dives into a spacey electro atmosphere while Lowris gives a dark minimalistic interpretation of Malinx. More can be expected to come out of the label, always pursuing the same ambition.

Extrawelt are busy this year and a buzz for their new music already exists so we are exited to release their brand new EP for Traum.

Their opening track "Mr Wednesday" is probably one of the most adrenalin packed tracks we have heard for a while. The track is a beast of a techno track constantly changing its color in a pace that pushes you to the limit. Don’t you think the break will give you relief, the opposite is the case... the break here seems to spark off new energy. Extrawelt do what they do best by letting their synths speak in a human syntax! And man how upset "Mr Wednesday" is! Raging with anger this track goes berserk and cries out loud. This is techno with its original message to shake off the dull skin of everyday life offering a parallel more personalized world. This is a topic which could not be more up to date.

The second track "Little We Know" is nothing less than a rocking bass-line funketeer but draws more on a melancholic state at times. But since we know Extrawelt it is not for long until they drop an uplifting sick theme in retaliation. This track is an emotional rollercoaster by any definition. And it has the surprise at its side for example you will suddenly hear a melodic theme which you would like to hear in a new episode of Dr WHO !? It is very clear by now that Extrawelt are full of creative ideas and could probably make a stunning bass drum out of a banana.

The third and last track "SEM" features a flow of heavily changing sequences but more in a way that sees the sound settle down, as we know it from dub music. Which is a good thing to do after two tracks that are tempo reflecting trax. Having said this Extrawelt spit out a machine made hi-hat pattern that elevates also this track towards techno madness. If you have ever seen one of Extrawelt’s live acts this EP very much verifies that. The flow of energy they generate can be highly addictive.
