Ping Rate
Listen to the pulse of sound, because Snork #71 is turning up the ping rate right to the top! With this year's third release, Snork Enterprises presents a sonic blast with two brand new
tracks by Mr. Snork himself, aka Christian Schachta aka Syntax Error. Motherfucker move your Ass! The catchy beat of "Marionette-like Fucker" holds every string tight in his hand. Like a virtuous puppeteer, with each ping of sound, this track forces your body into motion. So just let go and leave yourself to the stunning bass-lines getting into play with perfectly aligned groovy techno sounds. All strings attached to the dance floor! Turn around and come deeper. Deep down below where the light is dark and your head feels dizzy; where acoustic waves blow your mind. Feel the underwater moaning of the clunk of heavy working machines somewhere far away. Hear how snoopy jellyfish sneak up right next to you. And find yourself drawn to a point cloud of deep wobbly bass lines and tricky percussion.
Syntax Error
Exactly this world of the deep and groovy techno music is the well-known territory of Syntax Error. Having started as techno DJ in the late 90ies, he soon found his very special sound favoring deep wobbly bass-lines, harsh snares, FM tones and drones, deep bass drums and tricky percussion. Like a syntax error, he breaks with commonplace regularities and creates a wholly new sound experience that is highly recognized within the techno scene. Up to 2014, he has produced over 20 different 12" releases on the labels Snork Enterprises, Feinwerk, Relax2000 and UNDERtheGROUND Records. Each of his releases is an authentic, passionate creation of sound always mirroring some experience from his personal life - whether it's from his adventures as scuba diving tycoon, as sonar operator or as DJ and producer enthusiastically roaming the techno club scene.

Mistress Recordings welcomes Anthony Rother, one of electronic music’s most prolific producers, who will release two records on DVS1’s sub-label later this month. For more than 25 years, the legendary producer from Offenbach, Germany aggregated a vast musical canon that reflects his unique career as a sound researcher exploring the aesthetics far beyond the boundaries of electro, techno and pop music.

While "Mistress 12" features completely new electro techno endeavors including "Technic Electric" from DVS1's Fabric 96 mix, the second 12-inch is a re-release of Rother’s Datapunk classic "Back Home" that comes with new vocal-centered interpretations, a never-ending acapella loop and two club edits by DVS1.

We are glad to intruduce you this new joint venture, CRVEL are P.E.A.R.L. and Tensal colliding in the studio with the aim to create cyclical weapons for the most osbscure dancefloors. Raw synth lines, crispy high frequencies, continuous sequences and plenty of details and subtle twists that keep the flow going. Four exercises of futuristic techno with no turnabouts, straight to the point with a timeless attitude.

Pure Electro from Detroit for INST08. Dj Di’jital one of most influential of the scene. Vinyl only

Exploring the thin line between darkness and light... If there is an artist that fits perfectly with the Alpengluhen concept, that is undoubtedly Edit Select. The master of the emotions in techno music is the responsible for Habitual EP. A4 pieces of synthetic thrilling music (but not epic) with long and slow progressions, pure Edit select style. AA complete release with one intrincate intelligent dance music track (habitual#01); another intense track for the most demanding dancefloors (habitual#03); and two tracks for dancing with the eyes closed, there at the limbo (habitual#02 and habitual#04).

Dont sleep on this. Only 200 copies pressed!

Forest Drive West joins Delsin and inaugurates their new Mantis offshoot with three tracks that build on his reputation for restrained, immersive atmospheres loaded with soundsystem-ready physicality. As an artist well versed in elegant beat science stretching from techno to jungle and touching on tempos and moods in between, he's perfectly placed to set out the blueprint for this new chapter in Delsin's expansive techno legacy.

We are delighted to welcome Hito to Footwork.

The talented unofficial ambassador of Japan’s sub-culture has created 2 bangers marked with her own distinctive sound. “White Tower” takes a Techno trip down memory lane, rolling out a sweet melody on a fat bassline. The melodic journey continues following an impactful path of 303 inspired elements on “Sonic”. Ultimately, we round off this EP with a massive, experimental remix of “White Tower” by Cologne-based producer Patrik Berg.

Delsin's Mantis series expands its remit with the arrival of Italian duo natural/electronic.system. Already well-established as connoisseurs of deep techno via releases on Tikita and years of DJing at places like Labyrinth festival, Antonio Giova and Valerio Gomez de Ayala present four luxurious sound baths that occupy a space between techno and ambient - always propulsive and rhythmical, but with a huge emphasis on space and harmony.

Tresor Records celebrates the return of Psyk on its catalogue, with his new album 'A Moment Before'. This is Psyk's first long player since his debut "Time Foundation" on Luke Slater's Mote Evolver imprint.
The Spanish producer released his first single for Tresor, 'Works' , in 2015. Four years later, the production of 'A Moment Before' comes as natural progression, within the cosmos of the Berlin techno mothership for Psyk.
The album is undoubtedly Psyk's most advanced piece of work to date. It dialogs with practices in reduced forms of techno, as originated by artists like Robert Hood, through the recently re-released "Internal Empire" on Tresor.

Tripeo collaborates with fellow Dutch artist Cadans on his self-titled imprint with three original cuts entitled ‘Non Perfect Drone Replication’.

Over the years, Darko Esser aka Tripeo has become a truly respected figure within the techno world. Widely known for helming his acclaimed Wolfskuil Records, BALANS and self-titled label where he’s released an array of his own impressive productions, Darko continues to edge out a corner of the techno sphere through a regular gig and release schedule that’s been of consistent quality for over 20 years. ‘Non Perfect Drone Replication’ marks Tripeo’s first release of the new decade seeing him link up with Dutch producer Cadans who has releases on Clone, Neighbourhood and Hardgroove (when not producing drum and bass as Icicle).

‘Drone’ begins with tense atmospheres and haunting leads underneath the humming percussion and oscillating synths that surge as the track progresses before ‘Non PC’ employs energetic rhythms underneath wavering modulations and spectral tones that keeps this peak-time cut enticing through till the end. To finish, ‘Perfect Replication’ offers up an electro cut that’s peppered with a nostalgic yet modern feel through breaky grooves, alleviating pads and stabbing tones.

The third chapter of Overbalance continues the journey through versatile techno shapes with 4 cuts from Unbalance, where signature sounds migrate from rush-hour energy to gloomy off-beat grooves and hypnotic textures. Conceptually balanced, emotionally overbalanced.

ZwaarteKracht are very proud to present the 3rd edition in the series, inviting some very unique and forward thinking artists.

The very prolific Zagreb-based producer Ivna Ji kicks off side “Z” mercilessly grooving a bassline down your spine like an itchy virus. Followed up close by Errorbeauty, who has been pushing boundaries through her own label Arkada Records (which she runs along with XOR12). Her track here displays some geniously organic machinerythms into an eerie dystopian escape.

On side “K”, Arsonist Recorder hosts this record with an invasion of microbug machinery in a heavily rocking track that continues to sonically outline the reactive views of this label, only to prepare the listener for UK-based producer and dj Kim Cosmik’s industrialised funk-anthem which concludes this release, masterfully drilling the beat into the floor with a rumbling subbass-message to society.
Whenever you are ready.

Distorted Sensory Perception is back with a journey of deep space exploration in the form of their 2nd Various Artists release ‘Outer Solar System’. Featuring a diverse selection of deeper Electro and Techno of the broken beat variety.

The A-side boasts a nostalgic stripped back yet progressive cut ‘Persistence’ from Maltese duo Moodex. Next up, a deep ethereal musical statement ‘Early Morning Hours’ from fellow Maltese producer Sound Synthesis in his unique style.

The B-side opens with the moody, new school heavy hitter ‘Impulse Control’ from French producer and label co-founder Oshkossh. The penultimate track ‘Brainacid v2’ comes in the form of dusty machine music from Italian newcomer Caramel Chameleon that is reminiscent of AFX ambient works. Last but by no means least the record is brought to an epic conclusion with the frantically emotive and intricate ‘Grny89’ from France's Foreign Sequence.

Phase presents two striking, no-nonsense techno cuts for TOKEN85. Each side of Suspended Animation delivers the special kind of face melter that manages to remain sincere without being overly self-serious. Stroke B favours the sensational approach, with a bright and playful lead playing against a hi-hat frenzy in the breakdown. Stroke C is more introverted on surface level, but offers pure chaos instead from its depth.

Japanese artist Kosei Fukuda is back with his new series from his own platform. compilation of tracks with different approach towards experimental field in texture of sounds and beats.

Seven Hills Presents Precise Daily Rhythm 94-98! "SHRR04" Vinyl- 2x12" with the A- and B-Side comprising of a sought after Record from 1997 (The Moving House EP) & the C- and D-Side consisting entirely of unreleased Material!

Produced between 1994- and 1998 by Andy Jones & Alex Saltmarsh on the Isle of Wight. These Tracks perfectly encapsulate the 90's UK Techno-Sound, expertly crafted Grooves- and hypnotically addictive Baselines!

Some five years after re-launching his Crayon label via a fine EP of vintage "Tracks From The Vault", original 1990s tech-house producer Mark Ambrose serves up more gems from his bulging archives. The quality threshold remains dizzyingly high throughout. Check first "Nightshift (Deeper Mix)", where gentle, alien synth lines and deep space chords tumble down over a heavy analogue bassline and locked-in beats, before turning your attention to the slamming techno beats, looped electronics and mind-mangling TB-303 motifs of "Dusty Acid". Also impressive is "Space Animals", a deliciously dubbed-out affair rich in sub bass and drifting, deep space chords.

Classic 430 West compilation from 1995.... "Detroit Techno City"!
Originally spread over 2 samplers it contained some of the Burrell Bros (under several guises) best work - all featured here. The original releases also contained tracks from Alien FM (Aux 88) and Unknown Force, however, the rights to these tracks have now gone back to the original artists.
Still you have 5 absolutely killer golden age Detroit techno tracks to chose from!

One of Poland's freshest exports, if you don't know already, this is Sept and with his 'Mental Statement' EP for our 6th edition. 3x XXL bombs complimented with a heavyweight Joe Farr remix.

Warsaw's Sept is undoubtedly ready for a busy future, emerging well respected from his local scene to becoming an international talent. This ep is an example of some his best pieces to date, in fact they are beasts for the dancefloor. The title track Mental Statement, holds a kinetic energy with an infectious and menacing hook line, along with a taunting vocal 'Live, Die, Repeat'. Bristolian Joe Farr reworks the mayhem in his signature style, adding distortion, hooks and a multitude of devilish drops.

On the flipside more WMD's for the bag, 'Exhale' is a relentless naughty stomper that will slide well into any peak time. As will its dark horse counterpart 'Unleash', never more appropriate has been the saying... last, but not least. This is the type of carnage we endeavour to deliver in our movement, already this track has erupted many a rave played by a select few, with its 90's Jungle like break down, its been begging a track ID for time and now it's out there...

Transcode is back on Terminal M with a rocking 3 track ep! I love his way of producing, deep but powerful. Hard to decide which is my favourite track, I love them all. (Monika Kruse)

SC016 sees the re-issue of four tracks taken from a little known cassette only release ‘Diet Of Germs’ by British artist and friend Adam Oko. Originally released in 2015 on the now defunct Astro:Dynamics label the four tracks were recorded in Adam’s bedroom studio overlooking Clissold Park in Stoke Newington, London.

Now based in Tokyo but having spent most of his life living between London & Canterbury, as well as producing music and running a regular radio show on NTS radio, Adam also makes mixed media artwork and designs installations & interiors.

All instruments on ‘Diet Of Germs’ were performed by Adam himself except the solo on Suketo which was played by Raven Bush - Kate Bush’s nephew & was actually recorded in Kate’s old studio in South London.

Terminal M welcomes Bastian Bux and Wex 10! The combination of Bastian's grooving tracks and the banging remix of (Wex 10) delivers great tunes for every moment on the dancefloor. (Monika Kruse)

10 tracks by Japanese ambient musician Toshifumi Hinata. Right on point!

'Broken Belief' brings together a selection of recordings by Japanese multi-instrumentalist Toshfumi Hinata drawn from a body of work originally recorded between 1985-1987. Attending Berklee College of Music after spending time living in both the United States and the United Kingdom, Hinata would study under the tutelage of pianist Patricia Laliberte, graduating from the esteemed American school in 1982. Returning to Japan after becoming disillusioned with his classical training, Hinata experimented with many different forms of music. Moving away from depending simply on acoustic instruments, he would instead become entrenched in the possibilities of the latest analog synthesizers being developed at the time.

Toshifumi Hinata's initial idea was to make his first album with just a Prophet 5 and Linn Drum Machine. Tweaking filters and creating intricate sequences, Hinata would record various sounds on analog tapes and overdub many different layers; recording violin, piano and other accompaniments separately later on. It would become a method of working for the musician which he would apply almost entirely throughout this period. A deeply submerged process; one in which he would seek, as he himself puts it, to "weave musical images".

Toshifumi Hinata would go on to record several more albums released only on CD throughout the late 1980s and 1990s, after which he focused mainly on music for TV dramas, commercials and documentaries. Now living in Tokyo he is almost exclusively focused on creating music for documentaries. The period of work released between 1985-1987 is one though that was not only a rich moment in the history of Hinata himself but of Japanese music and electronic music in general.

Transparent Sound founder Orson Bramley and now solo artist delivers a powerful come back in 2019 with a strem of stong releases coming on Orson. Electrix and Pressure Traxx.

The city of Bologna (BOLO for locals) has been always a crucial junction for the underground music scene in Italy. Over the last few years a small group of bad boys has started to fill the streets with a distinctive and modern interpretion of house music.

We are here to represent that sound!

Ideal Audio presents the fourth and final instalment of Oliver Huntemann and Dubfire's seminal ELEMENTS series. These techno heavyweights have worked together on numerous projects over the years, but it is their Elements collaborations that have shone impressively as a complete body of work. AGUA is the final piece of the music puzzle and completes the series that first saw the light of day back in 2010 with the scorching FUEGO. 

2011 brought us TERRA, firm and powerful with its devastating breakdown. 2013 saw us breathe in the mystical AIRE, harnessing the elements of the previous tracks to build a fresh and magical moment. AGUA, as its name suggests, flows effortlessly, helped in no small part by the sultry vocal of Xenia Beliayeva, but kicks in equal measure. 

Signing off in such style has also lead to Ideal Audio drafting in some heavy weight talent on the remixes. Carl Craig, under his C2 moniker, dives straight in to strip the original to its core. A single drum beat, siren, clap... and then the kick. Petar Dundov twists the original's elements into a bubbling acidic stream that washes over us.  An impressive package for an impressive finale! 

Slow, excruciating, hard techno cuts by a mysterious group of 3, called GLMG.
