Techno Vinyl New Releases - News

Following his debut LP in June 2017, Trenton Chase returns with “Planar Array”, a 7 track LP on Artificial Dance. As half of Manie Sans Délire and the co-owner of June records, he’s known for his uncompromising sound that touches a wide range of genres. The release is heavy-hitting with distorted vocals, industrial textures and dagger-like synths, a satisfying array of wave, EBM and experimental music. From Transit Decay with the clunky bassline and depth at its core to the aggressive electronics in Narked. From the title track, Planar Array’s melodic high synths to the dreamy contracting offbeat of Doppler Shift. Trenton Chase brings the smoke out of the machine, progressively getting harder, faster and more destructive.

As one journey nears its end, another one is just starting. After the final release of her Propaganda label Nastia is back with a new imprint - NECHTO. After putting out a modest, but powerful catalogue of vinyl collector's exclusives, Nastia decided to focus more on dancefloor techno music.

The first installment in NECHTO catalogue is a perfect example of the concept - four track juicy techno EP from an undisclosed artist. From dreamy pads of N_1 that start the trip, through hypnotized and trance-like states of N_2 and N_3 to tense groove of N_4 the author takes no prisoners and delivers crisp, rich sounding collection of tracks that will light up every party.

A solid piece of work from the artist who's name will purposely remain a mystery. This is about music. So go order a copy now and dance to the sounds of NECHTO!

The fourth Various Artists release on JAM, 'Four JAM on 04' feature Frankyeffe, Shabaam, Tauchen, and Alex Fain

RESET arises as a wake-up call to the situation all of us are living through. A way of leaving a record of a fateful and paradigmatic moment in history. A backward glance serving as a way to face the future collectively and as a community. A manifestation of creativity and commitment. A reset to the habits and customs that we had internalized.

39 tracks by: Oscar Mulero, Francisco Lopez, Paul Prudence, Boris Divider, Fraction, Novi_sad, Barbara Ellison, Suso Saiz, Murcof, Estrato Aurora and more.

“Vax!” – Reminiscent of all the slippery vinyl that glitched under so many sweaty wet fingers in a steamy basement before time – a picture that seems highly illegal in our current antiseptic climate of hopefully germ free adolescents. Vax-inate! Give them the needle! It’s time.

Deti Vechnosti – Pered Rassvetom opens the gates to plug into the socket of our collective deranged consciousness, generating frisky and flamboyant specks to brightening darkness that confines our lives. Offering glimpses of the great unknown we also carry within. The Track introduces Chikiss & Mustelide’s new group “Deti Vechnosti”.

Alexander Arpeggio & OhLandy’s “Der Anruf”, wich originally appeared as a French language version on a previous Sameheads / Diapason tape release tells those tales of hot and hotter heat. Karmic payback for the sweaty and long nights enveloped in the halo of resonating frequencies of silly and high-spirited mischief.

Rouge Mécanique – Down the Line – follows suite in the odyssey that is a demented night out, sitting in front of a club, realising that the leatherjacket you picked up a few streets ago from the ground doesn’t smell like adventure but like spew.

The B-Side opens with Automatenfall – a hardware electronic 3 piece, previously appearing live at Sameheads during a “My Friend calls it K-Jazz” event. A yearning that eventually gets us on a spiritual path and headed toward enlightenment through the meandering melange of chimes, that little sounds that usually overcome us in the weirdest of times.

Das Kinn – the new project from Toben Piel, who’s part of Frankfurt’s MMODEM family, and one half of Les Trucs evokes memories of better days, black leatherpants – think Falco meets DAF – Überpop for the Untergrund.

Stopping for a final coup d’œil is Alessandro Adriani’s – Preserved Data Space. A persuasive case of brutally but lovingly worked machines serenading sawtooth waves of an infinite Weiter, a dissolving timeframe – the longest after hour I’ve been to, it lasts more than a year now already and counting.

Written by Michael Aniser.

Brotherhood Sound System Records is back with the third solo EP on the label, this time coming courtesy of Swedish producer and electronic mastermind Nils Krogh, aka Arkajo.

He's made his mark on the dance music landscape as one half of the revered House, Techno and Electronica duo Genius Of Time, releasing on labels such as Aniara Recordings,
Running Back and Royal Oak.

The lead track on the EP, 'Panacea', is a prime demonstration of Krogh's ability to manipulate percussion whilst showcasing his well refined talents in the studio. Opening with thunderous kicks, off-kilter percussion and ominous atmospherics, the track quickly transitions into a stripped back club record with thick hats and claps underpinned by a brooding sub.

Elements begin to drift in and out as another horizon is teased, before the beat crescendos and sharply falls into a percussive heavy, head-nodding cut that introduces more
hits and undertones as it rolls on, drawing the listener further in.

On the flip, Krogh drops two tracks that are aptly named after his love for using tape decks in his productions. First up is 'Tape 8', a hypnotic cut of Dub-Techno inspired electronica, with rolling kicks and intelligent percussion layered neatly under delayed synths and tripped out sounds.

The pace is set in place by a carefully crafted off-beat hat and further reverb soaked percussion, allowing the track to explore deeper sonic territories as it progresses. Finally, 'Tape 15' takes things down a more minimalistic route, with repetitive and compelling percussive patterns sitting alongside drifting atmospherics.
A continuous but modulated synth loop pushes forward until a subtle clap pulls the track together as it moves forward.
Once again, we'd like to thank everyone supporting the label and the artists we represent.

New 12" from Enclosed label, Ethical Governor returns with hipnotic and smashing techno, hard rythms with pure of obscure mechanical melodies for dancefloor banging.

Following the footsteps of her SUPER MILD split album with TENTENKO (TAL15) from 2019, Tokyo producer KOPY makes a welcome return to TAL with a new EP full of gritty wonders and buzzing rythm structures. Eternal EP presents two of her new tracks plus luminous remix appearances by Elena Colombi, Harmonious Thelonious and Dynamo Dreesen & SJ Tequilla.

KOPY sums it up: "For Fujiko, I had an aggressive spaciousness in mind. The track LOK made me feel like my feet were firmly on the ground."

The pièce de résistance of the entire EP might be the extended reworking by Elena Colombi (Osàre! Editions), who in her debut appearance in the producer's chair offers up a cinematic bricolage, inspired by dreams and scraps of intimate, cartoonish ambiences. The eight minute long journey is full of space, swirling alarm clocks and candid evocations of imaginary creatures and environments crossed with diverse snippets of KOPY’s two original tracks.

Harmonious Thelonious who has already shared the stage with KOPY at Düsseldorfs Salon des Amateurs, contributes a trademark HT remix which combines infectious danceable beats with injections of oddness and raw beauty.

For their KOPY KONTRAST mix DD and SJT drew inspiration from a fulminant Kopy live set in Osaka which they had witnessed while being on a tour in Japan.

The 12"EP is lavishly presented, with a fully illustrated jacket and inner sleeve design by Sarah Szscesny.

Following his appearances on Of Paradise Vol. 2 and Of Paradise Vol. 3, Nuremberg based producer Lazarus, lays his emotions bare and delivers Downwards, an expansive and profound 4-track journey through breakbeat and techno.

Berghain infected techno weapons.

We are proud to welcome Nocow to the Etruria family under his new alias Tayut Ogni.

The consistent and intriguing St. Petersburg based producer who has released on labels including Figure, Rekids, Clone and Skrypton is the new protagonist of ETB051.

The EP is a long trip, matching cutting sounds, hypnotic synths and magic vocals with fast and involving grooves across four original tracks and a remix of Lost You by Luca Agnelli, who infuses his energetic touch with the original vocal sample to create an explosive dancefloor moment.

It doesn't get much bigger than this: Adam Beyer links up with Green Velvet and Drumcode's outstanding rising star Layton Giordani for a debut collaboration.

Some musical partnerships feel fated. Both fans of one another's work, for years Adam Beyer and Green Velvet had discussed writing music together. In turn, Beyer's protégé Layton Giordani had admired the Chicagoan's work for as long as he could remember. When the 25-year-old found himself playing alongside the green mohawked legend at Belfast's Shine, the spark and subsequent friendship was immediate. With the links now set in place, it was only a matter of time before the trio's creative chemistry would manifest musically.

'Space Date' was conceived organically and birthed quickly. Propelled by Green Velvet's trademark vocal hypnotism, the triumvirate combine to craft a pumping intergalactic slice of techno laced in melody that's highlighted sets by Beyer at Awakenings, Ushuaia and also EDC Vegas when Green Velvet dropped it to a raucous response. The track is complimented by 'Rome Future', the product of a year-long series of productions between Beyer and Giordani. Deftly combining crisp drum work, catchy vocal effects and a powerful bassline melody that gives the track an almighty kick, it will be familiar to many who've followed their sets over recent months.

Cobra Club's second release, Mariahoeve EP comes directly from the magic hands of Endfest. After dropping some bombs on his own EP on Endless Illusion and a killer track on a compilation for Analogical Force it was time for another solo EP, suported with amazing remixes by Mark du Mosch and Dj Overdose as Rotterhague. Meeting Mr Magpie on the A-Side starts it of by hitting you hard with a straight up Gloomy beast of an Electro track, the remix by Mark Du mosch takes this track to another dimension stretching it out and adding his much loved vibe to it. On the B-side the dreamy and at moments even poppy Electro jam makes you want to take Bus 53 straight to the sandy shore of Scheveningen. Dj Overdose's Rotterhague remix flips it into a street version that has more of a link to harbour of Rotterdam than the beach of Scheveningen. Both sides come with a short version of the full length track ''Drank''.

Prolific American artist Jon Hester returns to Rekids for the first instalment of his new album, ‘Converge’, this September.

Jon Hester grew up in the Midwest US, living in Chicago and Minneapolis while taking musical cues from Detroit. Initially he was a dancer, and later transitioned to the decks with a refined understanding of what it takes to move a club. He progressed to hosting his own events, holding residencies, and working at a record shop, and now brings his physical rhythms and adventurous drums to his productions, with output on respected labels such as Transmat, Deeply Rooted, Dystopian, Klockworks, and LET Recordings, not to mention multiple appearances on Rekids.

Continuing to show fine form on his debut album, Hester now serves up eight of his signature house and techno fusions with plenty of his trademark directness across four sides of vinyl. The superb 'Sending Signals' opens the album with scene-setting synth modulations full of sci-fi atmosphere. It's the calm before the storm as 'Metropolitan' then immediately sets off on a cantering groove that is eventually run through with busy, jazzy piano keys that bring the soul.

'Haze' has excellently taught kick drums with hypnotic synth tones adding colour, and features Hester on saxophone. When 'Rain' comes, things grow darker and more menacing, with shakers and urgent stabs keeping you moving at a slick pace.

The second half of this compelling record features the loopy punches and pulses of the super smooth 'Dreamstate', beautifully cosmic and widescreen techno of 'Free' and pensive but urgent deep electro of standout cut 'Flex.' Last of all, 'Equinox' is lit up with distant chords which bring a far-sighted gaze to the rolling, robust kicks.

While his lengthy career has seen him touch on many styles of club-ready dance music, Josh Wink will always be associated with the kind of freewheeling acid insanity that marked out his biggest hit, 1995's 'Higher State of Consciousness'. 'New Year's Day Acid', a surprise single for John Digweed's Bedrock label, is nowhere near as breathlessly intense as that cut, though it does employ some similarly mind-altering acid motifs alongside picturesque melodies, dreamy chords and a pleasingly undulating and relaxed club groove. Fellow veteran John Tejada provides the obligatory remix, adding further levels of mellow warmth and musical beauty amongst the chunky bass, punchy drums and quick-fix acid flashes.

After his first contribution to Knotweed in 2015 (KW017 - Reflections E.P.) and his incredible track 'Own Structure' on KW020 Various Artists in 2016, Julixo is back on Knotweed with a full E.P.

Julixo is one of a kind producer. A drummer at heart, he has a broad interest in all types of music, and you can really feel it in his tracks where he loves to experiment with many different vibes.

The record opens with 'Red Valhalla', a though techno attack in the vein of his previous track 'Life of Crime', made to decimate the dancefloor. Julixo increases the pitch one notch and takes a more funky twist with the breakbeat infected 'Rose Tape', fast and to the point. The B side continues where 'Own Structure' left off: two tracks relying heavily on vocal and synth samples to bulldoze their way through your brain: Julixo is having fun, and you can feel it - it is contagious!

It is the rawness of this record that makes it special.

'No Photos on the Dance Floor! Berlin Techno 1992–Today', compiled by Heiko Hoffmann, follows a hugely successful photography and video art exhibition by the same name that was co-curated by Hoffmann and shown at C/O Berlin in late 2019. The exhibition included works by photographers and visual artists such as Wolfgang Tillmans, Romual Karmakar, Sven Marquardt and Camille Blake, that dealt with Berlin’s club culture since the fall of the wall. It was followed in 2020 by a book of the same name which collected together the most striking imagery from the exhibition alongside interviews and personal essays.

'No Photos on the Dance Floor!' is the first compilation to trace the history of techno made in Berlin over the last three decades, with a selection of classics and hidden gems that have helped shape Berlin’s sound from the early 90s until now. The title refers to a particularity of the Berlin club scene: photography is banned in almost all the important clubs to allow partying together in a space where you can lose yourself to the music and feel free and safe at the same time.

After the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, abandoned spaces and buildings were waiting to be filled with new life in the form of clubs, bars, galleries, workshops, and studios. Berlin became the epicenter of a new nightlife culture that soon resonated around the world. Berlin’s techno scene was heavily influenced by the pioneering sounds of Detroit techno created by African-American producers such as Juan Atkins, Kevin Saunderson and Underground Resistance.

Their records were imported to the Berlin DJ scene by the record store Hardwax, based on the ground floor of a building on Reichenberger Straße in Kreuzberg, from December 1989 onward. The original temples of DJ culture in New York amd Chicago, as well as the emerging rave culture developing in London and Manchester via Ibiza, would also go on to shape Berlin’s nightlife. Party series like Tekknozid and clubs such as Ufo, Tresor, and Planet can retrospectively be interpreted as the big bang of the first shared culture between Germany's East and West, having paved the way for what is still the last and biggest expression of European youth culture.

Part 1 of the vinyl edition focuses on the period between 1992 and 2006, with early 90s tracks by Thomas Fehlmann and Moritz von Oswald’s 3MB project (who teamed up with Detroit’s Juan Atkins on compilation opener 'The 4th Quarter'), Berlin techno pioneer DJ Tanith and Mijk van Dijk’s short-lived project 9-10-Boy, von Oswald’s and Ernestus’ influential Maurizio alias, and Alec Empire, who would later go on to start influential noise/industrial band Atari Teenage Riot. Further key tracks from the first half of the aughts come from Mo Loschelder and Klaus Kotai’s Elektro Music Department label, Sleeparchive and Ableton Live co-developer Robert Henke aka Monolake.

Part 2 is drawn from tracks made between 2007 and today, starting at a point when the city became the center for a new creative community of international artists, DJs and producers who often favoured the minimalist aesthetic & musical styles of clubs such as Berghain, Bar25 and Watergate and stayed for the ease of living. Beginning with a remix by Plastikman aka Richie Hawtin of his Minus label signee Heartthrob, the two 12"s also feature contributions from Ben Klock, Avalon Emerson and Modeselektor.

In addition to the two-part vinyl release, 'No Photos on the Dance Floor!' will also be available in expanded CD & digital formats, featuring additional tracks by Rødhad, Efdemin and Ricardo Villalobos.

The record was compiled by Heiko Hoffmann, former editor of Groove magazine and co-curator and co-editor of the 'No Photos on the Dance Floor!' exhibition and accompanying book. The double-vinyl release also features full-format photography by George Nebieridze and Wolfgang Tillmans.

I am happy to welcome Vikthor & Oscar Aguilera to our Terminal M family. I am in love with all the four tracks, for me it is hard to decide which is the best. Dark, rolling, deep music - for every moment in life or on the dancefloor a fitting tune. Enjoy! (Monika Kruse)

Rave Hard Techno.
Classic sounds in a modern shape... Crazy stuff !

Berg Jaar takes control of Room to produce a powerful & creative techno. That new imprint and his rave spirit will put a spell on you.

Since bitten by the Techno bug some twenty years ago, Sammy Goosens aka Sierra Sam has been following the steady pulse of the kick drum. Soon his solo tracks caught the attention of legendary R&S Records label who signed him in 1997. James Pennigton aka Suburban Knight started to work with him, co-producing Suburban Knight's classic album - My Sol Dark Direction' for Peacefrog as well as as well as other remixes and singles.

More releases on renowned labels like Dirt Crew, Supplement Facts,Serialism, Upon You or Souvenir followed and resulted in a busy schedule, performing analogue live sets at some of the world's most revered clubs such as Fabric, Rex, Wood, Watergate or Berghain.

In May 2014, Sam teamed up with KiNK for a very special 3h20 improvised live jam at Watergate club Berlin which resulted in the - Live at Watergate' release in 2015. Apart from this, Sam has been busy producing tracks for Upon.You, Sound of Vast, Holic Trax and proveded a 32 tracks retrospective to Best's Friends.

Echocord’s Colour series returns late April with the ‘Epibenthos Mbira’ EP by Hess & Harrison. Detroit’s Luke Hess has long been a respected name in underground Techno, releasing on the likes of FXHE, Deeplabs, Minimood and of course Echocord, here we see him joining forces with fellow Detroit native Joshua Harrison under their new Hess & Harrison alias for a fresh four-track EP on Echocord Colour. ‘Benthos’ leads, merging snaking dub chords and swirling white noise amidst robust drums and acid-tinged stab sequences. ‘Hadal’ follows next, embracing a more dynamic feel to contrast the groove-driven opener, this time round the duo lay focus on expansive reverberations, elongated delays, hypnotic strings and subtly nuanced textures throughout. ‘Nekton’ kicks on the flip-side, delving even deeper via driving low-end tones, murky atmospherics and shuffled percussion before ‘Upwelling’ rounds out the EP, bringing things back to a more loop driven feel as bubbling echoes, gritty bass stabs and sharp chords ebb and flow around crisp drums.

After their successful -Acid Weeks EP- in 2015 Audiohell teams up with Bimas to bring us a very special release on Gorge & Nick Curly's 8bit imprint. 3 techhouse to techno originals working on the dancefloors all over the world. DC10 resident Tania Vulcano and her mate Jose De Divina add a deeper version to complete the release.

Cignol has cemented himself as one of the brightest lights in the burgeoning nu-skool electro scene, here he debuts on UTTU with 4 tracks of expertly produced deep emotional electro vibes.

Following his ‘Voyage’ EP on the label last year and his “Endlessly” Single this year, Markus Homm returns to Bondage-Music once again for another stunning release with his unique deep & grooving style. 

Markus Homm constant mingling of styles and histories creates a unique and exciting sound. Markus’s productions and DJ sets bear the traces of his musical evolution, from the uplifting vibes of classic house to the crisp precision of underground techno. „My life is about dancing, grooves, and music,“ he says. „Great music should get you in the mood, without you even realising it. That’s what I want to do.“

His new EP ‘I Don’t Blame You‘ accompanied by a remix from Djebali contains 2 vinyl only tracks.

After his vinyl debut 'Oktrosis' on Etui Monomood spreads ones again his love for techno. In the same way the paradox title 'Love, Dub & Machine Wars' may confuse on his new EP the sounds will take the listener on a diversified travel through his essential techno style. - Nina' shows Monomoods sensitive and thoughtful perception of electronic dance music. Deep chord sounds and a wonderful dreamy pad are making your eyes water not only on Sunday mornings at a festival. - Absolute Control' on the b-side is presenting a quite different manner. Deeply rooted in the techno business of the end 90s, Monomood can't deny his origin. What you can always hear in his energetic DJ Sets now has found its way on a record - peak time Techno with a raw attitude. With - Coming Home' Monomood closes the circle and claiming dub techno-rhythms are meeting a highly fragile pad construction finding its home somewhere between desperate euphoria and blissful melancholy.Played & supported by Alan Fitzpatrick, Ben Sims, Luca Bacchetti, Hrdvision, Jonas Kopp, Mark Henning, D.Diggler and many more.

Pilo returns to BNR in 2020 with the “A.R.E.A.” EP. Since his first release for the label in 2013 at a very young age, each subsequent record could be seen as a milestone of growth - the “A.R.E.A. EP” feels confident, produced with consummate skill, focusing on the LA-producers strongest themes and devices. This is not, however, the sort of “maturity” that sees things get boring, more restrained. Pilo’s drum is the beat of LA’s unhinged underground techno scene - they don’t do boring - and this drum is always banging.

A-side examples: “Acid by Mouth.” A stuttered kick and a gated, uncanny valley voice form the backbone for increasing layers of texture and percussion. It’s a rollercoaster, as viscerally satisfying on the way up as on the way down. Pilo’s production journey has been increasingly cinematic, and you can see the songs here - “Acid by Mouth” is suited for a Gaspar Noe nightclub scene, and you love to hear it as long as no one gets murdered. “Ruhig” is tribal, made for spaces with 4 story high ceilings and sparse but blinding flashes of light. You can hear steel beams buckling under pressure, a breath too close behind you. The workers of the factory in fit of madness started raving to the sounds of their own machines. They’ve been dancing, without pause, for years now.

The B-side opens with “Exit the Artificial.” Headbanging broken beat kick, aggressive Skinny Puppy snares, ghost voices in hallucinatory bursts too short to confirm to be real. The draw-distance of the stereo spread seems infinite - listen at the very edges and a whole other (ominous) world is taking place. The ghosts mock you in gated laughs by the end. “Adapt Tactics” leads you out - low tempo, hissy percussion, haunted again at the fringe. Things break down, reduced to grain - brain short-circuits, “will I feel like this forever?” It’s a warning - turn back, there’s nothing for you out there. You embrace the madness, and start Pilo’s “A.R.E.A.” EP again from the beginning.

Over the past two years Thomas Schumacher and I have build an amazing friendship and released incredible music by Thomas on Noir Music. I believe 100% in his unique productions and he believe 100% in my A&R skills to take the music to new levels.
I am honored to have yet another set of incredible tracks ready for a release on Noir Music and instead of me describing the music I asked Thomas to put words on the release himself this time. - NOIR 'It's been an emotional and rewarding process to record these two tracks for Noir. This release got me digging deep into my Acid and Rave Techno consciousness: The early 90s and it's illegal Warehouse raves in abandoned dockyards in the North of Germany. Memories of collective euphoria on the dance floor burnt into my mind and soul. It was my goal to capture the original spirit, the-everything-goes, over-the-top, raw-as-fuck attitude that defined that time of my life.' Thomas Schumacher

Zeitgeber and L.B Dub Corp split the second in Stroboscopic Artefacts' series of fifth anniversary records. Zeitgeber is the collaborative project of SA label boss Lucy and Dutch techno royalty Speedy J. Their joint alias birthed an exceptional long-player last year and has since been presented as a b2b act at festivals and clubs around the world. 'Totemism' is their first officially released output since that album, and is every bit as compelling. 'Totemism' opens with distant, reverberating bells and a thin film of hiss and crackle. But, one minute in, heavy and incessant drums cut through the ambience, hitting you straight in the chest. The surrounding atmosphere evolves and filters in-and-out of the mix until, halfway through, the track takes an unexpected turn with an elastic bassline and acid squelches. Then, the drums hit you again. This is an 11 minute masterclass in widescreen, narrative techno from two of the scene's most experienced and inventive producers. Luke Slater, a man of many aliases, slips into L.B Dub Corp mode for the B-side of this record. This particular moniker of Slater's generally trades in raw, culturally-inspired house music, though has also appeared on Stroboscopic's Stellate series with two deep and beatless dubs. For his contribution to SA's 5 Year anniversary, Slater re-visits a classic club cut of his own, delivering 'Take It Down Again (In Dub)'. 'Take It Down Again' is a brilliantly-realised exercise in tension, dub delay and mixing board creativity, all made to shine by a dose of oddball musicality and sampling. This version of 2010's 'Take It Down' is more restrained and tonally varied, equipped to instil a brooding and tribal darkness on the floor.

Berlin Beauty is the second solo-release by Victor Ruiz on Noir Music and it's another super strong 3-tracker from the Brazilian. The 3 tracks are carefully hand-picked, matched together and road-tested by myself and Victor to make sure this release is as solid as possible. Two big room techno bangers and one track leaning more towards the melodic house and techno vibe. All of them with Victor's high quality touch and extra finesse on top. I really do feel Victor Ruiz is among the very best techno producers at the moment and I feel privileged to be able to release his music on my label. No more words necessary. Hit play and let the music do the talking.

Fresh music, beautifully packaged. The emotive vibe of early '90s British IDM and US techno-soul is eminent throughout. From the sensual deepness of the title track or B side cut "Mime" which are reminiscent of classics by the likes of DaRandLand, not to mention the full throttle rework by legend Kirk Degiorgio under the As One moniker on the flip.

Irish producer Lee Holman joins 'Shaded Music' with two part vinyl release 'Agent of The Underground'. First part involves remixes by Fredrik Bekkaasen and Pagalve. Hypnotic techno action to be expected.

Stay On Sight Recordings, the signature label from Skin On Skin, announce their latest release as S.O.S releases some of his biggest hits for the first time exclusively on 12” vinyl. Featuring heavy-hitting club edits from front to back, this tracklist of the most sought after IDs is one for fans who are really in the know.

The compilation EP follows the critically acclaimed ‘A Butterfly In-between Time’ with jamesjamesjames, ‘Get Some Understanding!’ and ‘Save Me’ as the label’s fourth release since 2019.
