4 banging superb hard techno tunes, wéarm sound and dybnakicks ! Dancefloor killer !

Half of Manie Sans Délire, June, turns up on Artificial Dance with his anticipated new mini-album, ‘Horizons’ - following on from his studio companion Trenton Chase’s ‘Planar Array’ released earlier in 2020. True to the signature synth-splattered sound of his and his duo, June’s newest wave-imbued manifesto has us swimming amidst an organized chaos of roughly extruded keyboard wizardry, punk-minded drum programming and a retro-futuristic headspace.

Scanning out the gap between Italo, new wave, EBM and new beat, ‘Horizons’ shifts seamlessly from forward-moving, arpeggio-laden circuitry (‘JW’, ‘Infinity Room') to hi-intensity body music (’New Horizons’), through ambientoid spaced-out sonic explorations (‘Uncharted Territories’) and quirky downtempo chuggers (‘Reverie’, ‘Psychic Process’). A kaleidoscope of rhythmic tricks and shape-shifting mirages, June’s scope-expanding six-track voyage vows to play mind games with its listener till all lights have gone off.

Music is about Techno to hardcore... Little by little all along the record you'll get a harder sound... the whole thing is quiet oldschool, but really in a particular way... like rare styles.

This is an anniversary LP collab'. A superb Item... And a bloody fat sound (cut &Mastering) : all in one it's aunique piece.

A very beautiful project.

ENJOY !

Epione records is proud to welcome Myles Sergé ans Plural, both from Michigan, into its release catalogue.

The enigmatic Myles Sergé is a low flying techno producer, hard working label head and old school DJ, however he prefers the term “reclusive perfectionist”. Originally from Grand Rapids, Michigan, Myles experienced a temporary sojourn to the beachside of the the UK’s Brighton before relocating to Berlin. In some respects the American’s music bypasses the melodic classicalism of Detroit for a stripped-back European take on techno, though the mettlesome machine- funk of his raw style, and rough and ready prowess behind the decks, is never too far from the outer-regions of the US’ motorcity he calls home. In these two tracks for Epione records, he brings us back to the roots of minimalist and old-school Detroit techno His sound waves breed a sensual and heady groove which strokes our body before starting a hypnotic dive into the innermost depths of soul...

Plural (Metroplex, Ditekt, SIXONESIX, Audio Textures) returns with his signature sound revitalized and heavier than before. The two tracks on this record show a master of minimalist funk at his apex-'Rewired Soul' with it's industrial/warehouse opening features an ever-evolving synth line that can compel even the most jaded of listener into movement, while ' Beautiful Blade' and it's lovely chord stab paired with an ethereal pad progression shows his ability to use only the necessary elements to make for a compelling, dancefloor-friendly track that sounds classic and futuristic at the same time.

FJAAK presents: SPANDAU20 001! First outing on our new label comes in hot with NIKK's long anticipated banger 'Force Of Pleasure' backed by an equally powerful rave tool we've been hammering in our live set for a bit now, 'Turn It Up'! Need we say more?

Odopt once defined their music as 'peak time bangers with a twist', and it's easy to grasp why. Their tracks have the kind of propulsive energy that can send any dancefloor into a frenzy, but the way they build them couldn't be further of the usual big room schematics. In their universe, the sounds are strange, the samples obscure and the structures unexpected. Risky music made to be felt, not thought. EBM if the E stood for experimental. A big part of this vision was cultivated at the Denis Simachev Bar in Moscow, a 'punk and kitschy' spot where Grisha and Ivan spent countless nights playing music, inviting friends to perform and testing all their new productions. The bar was, in their own words, 'the heart of a city'. The nucleus of their Moscow. Sadly, it closed its doors last April after 12 years. 'Sociopath EP' is a sort of sonic testament of the venue. Its three tracks seek to capture the spirit of a place that served as a huge inspiration for the Odopt's sound, and listening to them it's easy to understand what made it so special, even if one has never been there. Dark and eccentric, but ultimately playful. Weird and obsessive, but in a liberating way. Music that speaks of a space and vice-versa. The memory of the Denis Simachev Bar is safe. But not only in these tracks: also in one of the unique visions in today's dance music. The EP comes housed in a sleeve by Alicia Carrera

In collaboration with Brooklyn-based artist RDO/ATK, Sophia Saze makes her long-awaited return to her Dusk & Haze imprint with four slamming cuts on a release entitled ‘Stalker’.

Born in Tbilisi and now residing in Philadelphia after years living a nomadic lifestyle, Sophia Saze began her creative journey in her formative years with classical music and dance training. With a solid and natural musical foundation, Sophia became engulfed by electronic music leading to the launch of her Dusk & Haze imprint in 2017, before dropping a remix of Heathered Pearls on Ghostly International and the release of her much lauded debut album on Kingdoms. ‘Stalker’ sees her team up with old friend RDO/ATK who has been soaking up the dancefloor since the early 90s. With much of his influence stemming from the early east coast rave and club scene, his sound maintains a homage to the past without getting stuck in it. A sucker for a dirty 303, a breakneck amen, or a crushed 909, RDO/ATK’s style spans across genres from jungle to acid to broken beat and everything in-between.

The EP kicks off with a dynamic, jungle roller entitled ‘Stalker’ featuring old-school, amen breaks, stirring yet intriguing synths and hefty bass shatters balancing styles of glitch and funk together with pure class whilst ‘Fucking Crazy B’ lays focus on cold, syncopated grooves, chopped up shrieks and screams from a video of a traumatic personal incident and shimmering pads moving into ominous territories.

On the flip, ‘Talk To You In Your Brain’ delivers relentless kicks and spiralling acid squelches peppered with chilling vocal samples and frazzled fx that pulsates strikingly throughout until ‘Acid B’ rounds off proceedings with an effervescent, warehouse techno cut as the electrifying modulations bounce gracefully off the menacing percussion and slashing, 303 tones.

3 banging hard techno pityless kickers and one nevertheless Hardcore kicker ^^ BANG !

Omnidisc welcomes Vivian Koch to the family with a proper 3 tracker. Electro influenced melodic power

After already contributing a remix to our first release, Border One returns to Escapism with the EP "Restive". The up-and-coming Belgian producer and DJ manages to connect hypnotic grooves and dancefloor vibes on two original cuts. Cassegrain and Phara are on remix duty, finessing the originals with their unique take on techno.

Aymeric is proud to present his brand new These Tasty Records imprint with a bomb 5-tracker, and who better than the founder himself to produce it alongside Cesare Muraca?

Kicking off the A-side, Cesare goes deep into the realms of ravey caves followed by Aymeric's spookier electro melodies reminding us of his home, 'La Relève'.

The flipside goes on with a housey bomb by Muraca guaranteed to get a crowd jumping, then closing with Aymeric's yin and yang, composed of one funky banger and a slow breakbeat progressive tune to end things in beauty.

LFO, Peel Session, 20/10/90: Brennend gesuchte "Peel Session", aufgenommen kurz nach LFO's erstem Single-Release auf Warp, inklusive anderweitig ungehörte Tracks.

Zur Sommersonnenwende 2019 nahm Warp den Onlineradiosender NTS für ein ganzes Wochenende in Beschlag, um die Feiern zu seinem 30-jährigen Jubiläum zu eröffnen. Über 100 Stunden Programm mit Mixsets, Dokus, Live-Performances und Sessions des gesamten Warp-Artistrosters von Aphex Twin über Brian Eno bis Kelela samt Gästen wie Ryuichi Sakamoto wurden von hunderttausenden Fans weltweit live verfolgt. Jetzt knüpft Warp mit der Veröffentlichung der "WXAXRXP Sessions" an diesen Event an, einer Serie aus zehn 12" Vinylen mit Radiosessions aus 30 Jahren Labelgeschichte, von frühen Peel Sessions bis zum diesjährigen WXAXRXP x NTS Wochenende, allesamt in höchster Audio- und Design-Qualität.

Patrick Conway is made of snips and snails and puppy tails. This is his second offering for the ESP Institute. On side A, Hypersocial removes our minds from the daily online cesspool and pulls up emotions we haven’t felt for almost a year. We lost a Summer of dancing together en masse in clubs, fields, warehouses and pubs, but with this beautiful reminder of what true social synergy and collective ecstasy can physically feel like, the Bristolian by way of Berlin hits the nail right on the head (with a little help from his friends Quantum Thomas & Hoyahelper). Lush strings? Tick. Balmy chord progression? Tick. Ethereal vocal chops? Walloping bassline? Infectious rhythm? Goosebumps? Tears of joy? Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick! On the flip-side, Safety Test is surely the tougher counterpart, the warm fuzzies are traded for a ten ton bag of grit. Here, Patrick foreshadows a sonic approach we’ll hear lot more of with his debut album early next year; a combination of abrasive rhythms, processed scraps, a grab bag of stabbing bleeps and bloops, distant car alarms, ballistic fax machines, and an arsenal of low frequencies so brutal your woofers will require jumper cables. So, a heroic slab for both a block party in your brain and sunset in your soul, these two songs will bring back the Summer you just lost.

Psyk latest EP on non series gets remixed by Peter Van Hoesen, Shifted and Neel.

Autorpod - Fatal techno, industruial techno and Acid techno :)

Big record... Secret weapon :)

Vatican Shadow ist das Techno-Projekt des Multimediakünstlers Dominick Fernow. Melodische Loops und martialisch-zerklüftete Rhythmen stehen finsteren und bestechenden Ambiencen gegenüber. Als Vatican Shadow bringt Fernow eine Körperlichkeit und feierliche Energie ein, die im Techno rar ist. Seine hypnotischen Ambientmelodien werden konterkariert von donnernden Drumschlägen – ein Ausdruck der Furcht und Furchtlosigkeit, die seine Musik speisen. Sein neues Album und Debüt bei dem sonst im Metal ansässigen Label 20BuckSpin wird Vatican Shadow endgültig auch den Industrial-Metal Fans näher bringen.

"Various Artists - Divide & Rule" album split.

After Recouvrance, it is the second time that Epione records releases the first vinyl record of a young newcomer in French techno. Victoria 52 is a producer from Angers. Ever supported by Laurent Garnier, Dax J or The Advent, he incarnates well the renewal of French techno scene. His techno is deep and powerful but never falls in ease and suggests a large pallet of emotions. It is certainly banging and efficient but never linear and with a great sensibility and subtility.

Redemption EP opens on an hypnotic banging track that melt skillfully beautiful pads influenced by Detroit techno and powerful kicks. With Victoria 52, we always navigate between shadows and light, strength and emotion.
Departure is definitely more dancefloor orientated. With a powerful blast, it nevertheless keeps the melodic side of the first track.
Trunkline remix is a breake interpretation of Departure with an obsessive rythm. It brings a radically different style of techno at the EP.

Spatium adopts a far more steady tempo. More agressive, with acid accents, it is nevertheless a quite trippy track.

Parisian DJ, Producer and Elixyr Records label boss AIROD returns to Amelie Lens' Lenske for his third EP on the label. Following 2019's 'Rave Cycle' and 'Voltage' EP's, this year's LP on Molekul and appearances at some of Europe's most revered clubs and showcases including the EXHALE event series, the Frenchman has proven himself as a dominant force in today's techno scene.

'Assassin's Walk' welcomes us with rolling kicks and looping sirens accompanied by foreboding synths that orchestrate a deep sense of tension. As these fade, explosive drums perturb the peace again with the addition of a wavering acid line and incessant hi-hats that conjure urgency and pure exhilaration. Returning to the familiar AIROD sound we've been acquainted with is 'Topaz', employing pounding kick drums, jolting sirens and an indiscernible cut up vocal sample to engage listeners into an ambient delirium. Sharp white noise slices through the resounding beat in a rhythmic assault after the first drop and characterize the remainder of the track.

Title track Venom is imitative of its name with a malicious crescendo and striking electro-esque keys. Though this cut has an electro-feel, AIROD manages to retain the booming kicks and ominous atmosphere created in earlier tracks. We're rewarded with a swift change of pace with 'Enchantment', a delicate mantra that steps away from the usual toughness of AIROD's sound, but does so without compromising on intensity. Major chords ring out, constituting overwhelming feelings of lightness and joy, with heavy drums sitting comfortably under euphoric pads. Echoing hi-hats and a fleeting vocal gradually submerge into the drawn out keys to close on a feeling of elation.

Corpus is a record label emerged from the dungeons of Berlin. The latest addition to its growing body of work is dubbed Charade & Masquerade. As an industry first, Corpus brings together on wax the iconic Developer and surging Setaoc Mass. These truly stellar remixes are accompanied by their respective originals - one forged by Arma, the other crafted by Kan.

James Bangura debuts on Mister Saturday Night Records with a six track ep of diverse sounds and emotions.

From the far off sounds of drum 'n' bass absorbed through headphones in Alabama and onto his first experiences of parties during the blog house Ed Banger era whilst living in California, all the while hearing the sound of New York house sound at home, this is the sound of an artist taking it all in.

We present you three remixes from Kaiserdisco's recent Another Dimension album on Tronic.
Adana Twins skillfully reworked Varuna keeping the intensity while adding their touch to it. Andre Crom delivers a nice and dark remix of Orcus, while Aitor Ronda supplied his chunky and powerful interpretation of Hydra.

Hailing from Plum Plum Paradise
Relax yourself for juiciness of the peach

Peacefully lust in liquid tranquility

A maelstrom, the chaos, a vortex, a turmoil. These are appropriate words to describe the hard work of the prolific French producer.

With a cryptic history incorporating nearly two decades of aliases and side projects born out of free parties in warehouses, fields and basements, it is under this moniker that the artist has truly come into his own.

His skill and vision spanning from 135 bpm wave powerful to a pensive and subtle ambient track, Maelstrom's sonic universe is both precise and limitless, described better by feeling ('approaching storm over river/horse with the bit in its teeth/sliver of moon') than genre. Maelstrom cofounded the label RAAR in 2015 with frequent collaborator Louisahhh where he released his debut album «Her Empty Eyes» in 2017. Throughout the next 2 years, he has delivered exciting collaborations with cutting edge electro imprints such as CPU and Cultivated Electronics in the UK, Private Persons in Moscow, or Mechatronica in Berlin, while playing an all electro live set in clubs and raves, from Paris to London or Tokyo.

2021 will see the release of his second album, Rhizome, with a focus on the concepts of interdependence and creative ecosystems

For that new split of the series, we decided to honour a country that has always been a fantastic provider of acid sounds, from Den Haag electro to acidcore. Both based in Nederlands, Camera Security (half of Acidolido) and WaveBndr (alias of Collision) deliver here four tracks of mental and ravey techno that will delight all 303 addicts !
