Techno Vinyl New Releases - News

SDM003 is a trinity of percussion driven loopholes to get lost in. Taking you into the celestial numbness of space void of air – the sky is not the limit. A mindtrip into clammy and overgrown woods with droplets of nectar dripping from flourishing bloom. The whip that keeps you going. A hymn for that moment when you’re gazing at the crystal in the palm of your hand, a mystic figure whispering wisdoms of never ending energy in your shiny ear.

The Empire Line unleash their demons on 'BAS009'.
When Jonas Rönnberg (aka Varg), Christian Stadsgaard
(part of the Danish duo Damien Dubrovnik, co-founder of Posh Isolation) and noise artist Isak Hansen combine their musical vision, the result is sure to be radical.

Claiming that „the nature of your oppression is the aesthetic of our anger“ right away in the title, the four-track EP sounds like it was recorded straight from a sweaty basement.

Combining cascading rave tropes with noise, anger and punk, this release merges different underground currents. The result is a flamboyant, nevertheless harsh sound collage.

SUBSOIL - V/A (IA010)
Incl.tracks by Kike Pravda, Takaaki Itoh, Moddullar, Norbak & CONCEPTUAL.

For its seventh and last release, Rapid Eye Movement turns off the light with a five tracks EP by label heads VII Circle.

Properly titled "Every End Is A New Beginning", the record features five powerful and hypnotizing techno cuts that definitely mark VII Circle's territory. To be savoured on the dancefloor or on the battlefield, VII Circle has managed to craft five originals to serve as weapons to their own style. Heavily inspired by industrial scorners, VII Circle now delivers grade-A bombs for the ravey dancefloors.

Raw and subtle techno. Fully analogue excursions from the veterans Activ-Analog. Tracks produced, recorded and mixed between 2000 and 2004 now on the second Eupasia release, where the story continues.

Amsterdam producer Kaap steps forward on his own De Lichting imprint with three twisted jams of deep and playful techno. The passionate gearhead, known for his dubby takes on house and techno, started his Working Titles playground back in 2017 by running a niche cassette outlet Yield on the side. In late 2018 he merged into the prolific De Lichting collective and is a frequent guest on Indigo Aera's AEX series. After many years of hard work, Kaap's new solo EP is surfacing, and it's worth the wait. Over the course of three tracks, Kaap shows high levels of creativity. The first track 'Razor' is a bouncy bass wobbler, its rubbery acid lines and crispy percussion make it an ideal party starter. Title track 'Omen' reaches for deeper grounds, a deep and murky groover enlightened by tactical bleepy rhythms. Kaap's love for dub-techno triumphs on the lengthy b-side as a closer on this EP. With over ten minutes of hazy atmospheres and mesmerizing pads, it builds and builds towards the rolling fields of euphoria.

Napoel is a techno project and a label created by two djs/producers based in Naples. Gi Napoletano’s techno and detroit influences in his dark style meet Louiel Secoundlou’s industrial raw and acid side shaping a unique texture in their productions and dj sets.

A bridging of minds and energies, a confluence of souls and spirits. Midnight Shift releases an exclusive collaboration between Prequel Tapes and dBridge - Ionize. Cast all genres aside, as two electronic worlds collide to produce a third sonic space.

Start your engines with 'Divisible Cause' speeding and hurtling into the great atmospheric unknown. Outlier for the freaks, 'Stray Thrills' amalgamates between the classicist EBM and futurist UK bass. Stumble through 'Pleasure Systems' with light sabres, wrangled beats and gun shots ricochetting off the walls in one heady disorientation. Then wander aimlessly into the warehouse at 170bpm with 'Mindless', led by twilight tones and menacing machines at every turn.

Nur Jaber presents Planet OSF, the first instalment of her celestial series launching with a 6 track techno expedition from a collection of beautifully curated producers.

Inviting fresh talent, immensely creative minds, and friends alike, Beirut's techno import Nur Jaber drops "Planet OSF" on her Berlin based OSF imprint. Enlisting the likes of international & Berlin based producers Eira Haul, KOR, Lesser Of, Truant, Eira Haul & Luca Eck, Nur takes listeners on an otherworldly sonic odyssey.

For DSD023, Bailey Ibbs serves up a killer with his ‘Gurl’ EP. The A side delivers 3 Bailey originals, each serving up a different mood best suited for the dance floor. Where the B side provides 3 completely different flips of ‘Gurl’ delivered to you by Groovy D, Denham Audio & AK Sports.

Forthcoming on Claque the remixes of Donato Dozzy's 'Cassandra' which was, without question, one of 2015's most enduring success stories techno.

A side with techno twists from Skudge. B side with Fred P. and his own trademark concrete Detroitian and last but not least, DJ Jus-Ed steps up with the final re-shape of the show.

Amazing three different jobs that continue the legacy of Cassandra throughout 2016.

Nene H explores and pushes the new rave sound on Moral Standards - Falling Ethics Records subdivision - second outing. Backed by Sunil Sharpe and P.E.A.R.L. remixes, this high paced body music exercise packs loads of energy.

In 2015, two remixers on their respective thrones in techno and house were contacted to rework the classic.
Matador and Shiba San both delivered compelling renditions that capture the original's darkness, paired with their unique styles of delivery.Matador's remix extends the dark subversiveness of the original, incorporating sweeping, reverb-drenched textures and ominous synth patterns. The looming mix is a sure-tobe room filler at this year's ADE. The second remix is exactly what you'd expect from Shiba San a distinctly G-house groove built around gigantic bass and a distinct sexiness that will resonate with crowds regardless of their appreciation for house music.
The package now includes a remastered version of Luke Chable's PQM Meets Luke Chable mix. We hope you enjoy this very special Yoshitoshi 20th Anniversary package.

The vital vapors to absorb,
The moon, with famished gaze,
Suspends his lean, malignant orb
Above a dying day.

Colombian Techno powerhouse Gotshell unleashes a barrage of his signature, twisted, bone-shaking, analogue techno bombs for 'The Draft EP' on Suara with remixes from label head Coyu and Argentinian producer Flug.

Firstly, the A side houses ‘Pears Cosmic’, a swell of glitches, thunderous kicks and rave stabs at a fever pitch pace and secondly '19 Caracteres’ a sci-fi blitz, comprised of killer drum programming, modular bleeps, zaps and urgent surges.

Flip it over to find Coyu’s reinterpretation of ‘The Draft’, reworking the drums, adding rapid-fire claps into the mix and leaving the trance stabs out for a more heads down approach. Finally, Flug takes on ’19 Caracteres’ focusing his remix around an atmospheric echoing synth line, punctuated and interspersed by the original’s glitchy sounds.

Repress

France's I Hate Models has had a phenomenal rise since his first releases in 2016, now he arrives on Perc Trax to serve up the label's last release of year.

Already fitting in with the label's no nonsense aesthetic after appearances at a number of label showcases this year, this EP shows a hardening of his sound, without losing any of the melodic touches that have made his releases so memorable.

The original mix of "Spreading Plague" fills the A-side of the record with a near 10 minute journey though classic Perc Trax metallic percussion, quivering acid and soaring analogue lead lines. Epic is a word not often used in relation to Perc Trax, but
here it is perfectly applicable.

On the flip side, Perc remixes the lead track, honing in on the acid and adding swarms of claps and hihats for his first new production on Perc Trax in 2018. "Martial Order" closes the EP moving the percussion to the front of the mix once again, as metallic hits rain down on the listener, delivering a fresh take on one of Perc Trax's signature sounds.

It's backed up by 3 solid remixes, firstly by the one and only Robert Hood.

Mark of course delivered the latest release, Stunned (97 Mix) / Decay on Hood's M-Plant label and now Hood returns the favour by adding his signature touches to Frontline.

Beard Man's previous release was the Circuit Boost EP by Space DJz.

Now one half of the duo, Ben Long collaborates once again with Oliver Way, otherwise known as Mr O from Detroit Grand Pubahs for a deeper take on the original.

Warm Fiction proudly announces the label's fifth record from N-Gynn. N-Gynn's Espetta EP sees the London producer experimenting with cosmic, driving sounds that draw influences from UKG, Techno- and Electro across four unique tracks aimed squarely at the dance floor.

White label roller from Roger That taking one of dance music's most iconic vocals, New Order's 'Blue Monday' and flipping it into a heavy hitting, tech house heater. Packed to the rafters with punchy, reverberated stabs, low-end weight and lip-smacking dancefloor grooves it's already steamrollering the club scene - ever extending the reach of those immortal lyrics.

Hammered all summer long by the likes of Solardo, Camelphat, Marco Carola, Jamie Jones and Leon, it's is now available on a limited 12' vinyl.

After Brussels 89 on Erotiques New Beats, Musique Pour La Danse stays in the 89-90 season but this time takes you to Sheffield with this Ozone Recordings mini-compilation shedding light on an iconic label whose bleeps, basses and breaks helped shape the sound of British electronic music, from acid house, to bleeps, to rave and beyond.

Conceived as a one-way ticket to the early days of the UK Bleep scene, where US and European influences coalesced to give birth to a distinctive genre, this collection was remastered by Rob Gordon (original Forgemasters member and Warp co-founder) and it comes with extensive liner notes by Matt Annis, author of the celebrated "Join The Future" book which tells the fascinating story of UK Bleep and the rise of a distinctively British electronic sound.

It will be available in limited trioxygen blue vinyl edition featuring the notorious logo from The Designers Republic! Also notable, a few tracks on this record were produced with the help of Cabaret Voltaire's Richard H. Kirk.

"It would be fair to say that this snapshot of Ozone Recordings' excitement-packed back catalogue is well overdue. The Sheffield-based imprint's contribution to British dance music's creative boom of the late 1980s and early '90s has long been overlooked, with much more focus naturally falling on the Steel City's other key imprint of the period, Warp Records. (...) Looking back, they offer a good snapshot of the time, just as this tighter, more stripped-down compilation of highlights does."

Ralph-Armand Beck alias Taucher is next up on JAM

Cisco Ferreira’s seminal techno act The Advent returns to Ben Klock’s imprint this June with three distinctly turbo-charged cuts, following his release on the label’s 22nd instalment in 2018.

A pioneer of early British techno, the London-based producer began his career in the halls of the legendary Jack Trax label as a sound engineer, going on to produce cutting edge releases on imprints R&S, Tresor and Transmat. This latest Klockworks release relinquishes the sparse energy of The Advent’s live sets from the 90’s with these previously unreleased timeless live recordings. Favouring off-kilter percussion and warbled bass, all three strike hard with a distorted and visceral energy

Bjarki returns to with another EP brandishing five restructured doses of IDM from another galaxy. Using marching kick drums as a basis, oli gumm takes references from techno, gabber and trance and morphs them into something far less easy to categorise.'oli gumm 2-2' switches frantically between glistening synth cascades and bouncing kicks. 'fork2-2' is a subdued excursion through ominous, trance-inducing strings and skeletal percussion. Opening the B side, '7 filakaramellur lion bar' spirals through warped vocals and acoustic contortions, followed by 'hatann satann', a high speed voyage through a demonic parallel universe. Closing off the EP, 'sleikjó' uses rolling drums to circle around a pit of sparse sonic oddities.

CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) is a family of DNA sequences found in the genomes organisms such as bacteria and archaea. The discovery of clustered DNA repeats occurred independently in three parts of the world. The first description of what would later be called CRISPR is from Osaka University in 1987. They accidentally cloned part of a CRISPR sequence together with a gene that was their target. The organization of the repeats was unusual. Repeated sequences are typically arranged consecutively, without interspersed different sequences. They did not know the function of the interrupted clustered repeats.

Fourth and definitely last EP from the enigmatic Donna T. Serious old school vibes as usual, from stomping peaktime acid techno to Khmer house classics and emotional sunset proto-trance. 909s, 303s, breakbeats and all the other things you can't live without. This is the perfect soundtrack both for dancing like it's 1995 and for crying because it's not and never will be again. Thanks and goodbye from Donna T, it's been good times!

Raw, partly New Beat leaning, acidic Techno / Electro EP

Mause makes his debut release on npm with a stunning 4 track EP entitled ‘XOR’.

The cleverly structured ambient and melodically complex ‘Strimsang Baecon4’is reminiscent of early Aphex Twin with pure electronic bliss whilst ‘Sunday Multi Acid Seq20d’ is a strong finish to the EP delving deeper within the realms of electro and acid techno.
