Hot on the heels of In.Toto's inaugural release late last year, label owner B.Traits comes out of the blocks with another brace of tracks on the single 'Basic Scenario / Breathe Out'.
'Breathe Out' displays a definitive love of classic techno tropes; basement room bouncing beats and shuffling, bristling hats delivered with urgency and a slickness that has become a hallmark of her productions over the years. Chopped up vocals are pressed through the effects mangler, puncturing this driving techno cut laced with essential 909 rides and flanged percussion.
On the flip, the rubbery and pounding drums of 'Basic Scenario' is just as strong; the dense and reverberating beats providing the perfect vibes for a Berghain or Tresor sweat soaked session, as rising synths and frenzied hand claps produce a real element of drama, ramped up with B.Traits' own vocal monologue, suitably twisted by FX to polish off a well rounded and energetic club cut.
With her first In.Toto release selling out of its vinyl run within one day of going on sale, things are looking very promising for the BBC Radio 1 DJ's label, set up to offer a platform, not only for her own music, but for like minded producers and artists she has admired and promoted on her show and in the clubs. 2017 looks set to be a busy year for the label, so watch this space....
B.Traits 'Basic Scenario/Breathe Out' is released on handstamped 12' purple vinyl & digital download on XXX February 2017.

This week's drop comes from DJ FORD FOSTER - 5 yes count em FIVE BADAZZ HOUZ JAMS that absorb everything from Soft Pink Truth to Dance Mania.

On Paranoia, Oliver Huntemann's prowess and versatility as a producer is evident, from the space age minimalism of 'Magnet', through to more melodic, upbeat productions such as 'The End', in which warm sounds resonate through the listener.

Mesh-Key is thrilled to present this mind-bending solo album of electronics and vocals from legendary Japanese musician Phew. Phew's career began in the late 1970s as lead singer of Osaka punk group Aunt Sally (whose only full-length was released by Vanity Records in 1979). Ryuichi Sakamoto produced her debut solo release in 1980, a two-song single, and in 1981 Pass Records released her debut album, a bonafide masterpiece recorded with original Can members Holger Czukay and Jaki Liebezeit at Conny Plank's studio in Germany. She has forged a singular path over the past thirty-plus years, collaborating with folks like Anton Fier, Bill Laswell, and Seichi Yamamoto (Boredoms). It's borderline sacrilegious to compare an artist as unique as Phew with anyone else, but for those unfamiliar with her work, 'Light Sleep' might be described as a more animated Nico singing (in Japanese) for early Suicide. Prepare to be floored.

Remixes of 'D' by US. experimentalist Sun Araw, 'B' by Swedish progg rockers Dungen, plus previously unreleased / unfinished Prins Thomas original track 'J'

Dark Sky return with two highly effective techno tracks featuring dark and roaring basslines at the center, the London duo leave no doubt that they haven't lost any of their acclaimed production skills.

"Kilter" is a rhythm-driven club anthem, featuring a sweeping bassline that nods to classic Dark Sky, while on the Bsdie, "Acacia" opens with ethereal synth pads before giving way to a onslaught of low end goodness before slowly revealing building percussion which finally climaxes in all its thumping glory.

Sigha is back with a new double A-side in the same vein as the last: A booming, atmospheric achievement, showcasing his signature attention to detail and exploring the concepts of purity, faith and religion.

After joining the Token family with the release of Our Father/A Better Way Of Living in 2015, Sigha is back with another double A-side in the same vein as the last: A booming, atmospheric achievement, once again showcasing his signature attention to detail and exploring the concepts of purity, faith and religion.

The resounding intensity of Christ Figures is layered with emotive and staccato melodic elements. At times distant, and then rising to the forefront of the soundscape, in their more muted moments these elements only hint at the form of a melody, their restraint heightening the track's sense of melancholic romanticism.

On the other side, Sigha advances on the themes from the track Puritan on his 2012 album Living with Ghosts. New Puritan offers a similar hypnotism, with an untiring interaction between mid-range and bass that demands transfixion from the offset and retains it until the end.

Thriling Multifunctional Space Trips1

First release on The Weevil Neighbourhood by clandestine artist Anthone.
Repress: Black vinyl in brown cardboard discobag. Hand-stamped and -numbered. Comes with artwork- and info-card tied to the sleeve
"And another quite obscure but very recommended record from the Weevil Neighbourhood label. I actually wouldn't be really surprised if this Anthone act was the mysterious musician behind the "Larvae / Pupa / Adult" first series on this imprint, for the three track of "Aloof" carry the same sharp but encompassing combination of dub techno, darkish glitch and dubstep bass. Potentially club-friendly, but very rewarding to the active listener who takes time and dives into this EP, here's a piece of wax which undoubtedly comes from Berlin and manages to mix well some of the most typical sounds of this city. Recommended." (Nicolas Chevreux/ Ad Noiseam)
"Anthone is the Weevil Neighbourhood's marquee artist. The exact identity of who Anthone is, however, a mystery. They, it, he, she, them, have only delivered quality for the label so far, beginning with the three-track Aloof from 2012 that features a sinisterly abstract piece of rave called "Rebound". Somehow it's cheerily atmospheric while being heavy as a truck at the same time. The label's next release was Anthone's more serious Double Dub / Clear View 10", with both tracks sounding like the internal movements of giant weevil bug that's been built out of scrap metal and controlled by an evil little cretin from a Jean Pierre Jeunet film." (James Manning/ Juno Plus)

ENCODER produces with self developed Buchla-based software. He is no DJ. Expect three dusty Techno tracks and one track focusing on ridiculous organic madness.
MENSCH MUSIK comes in hand-stamped cover with printed artwork inlay!

First solo release by Kyoto based Katsunori Sawa on The Weevil Neighbourhood.
Repress: Black vinyl in brown cardboard discobag. Hand-stamped and -numbered. Comes with artwork- and info-card tied to the sleeve.
"Sawa's techno is infused with a dank energy, like it's being taken over by the undergrowth with every passing bar. Static and hiss blanket the empty space, and the percussion crawls in uneven formations. More often than not the effect is tinged with horror, as with the resonant shrieks of "Augur" or the unsettling death knell of "Black Sugar." "Phenomenon" comes closest to conventional techno, but still drags its feet with every lunge. The hangover after all the curling metal carnage, "NGM" feigns resolution, punctuated by brief flashes of white noise as it slowly corrodes." (Andrew Ryce / Resident Advisor)
"Another highly limited vinyl release on Berlin's Weevil Neighbourhood, with a musician from Kyoto called Katsunori Sawa. He's one half of the duo Steven Porter (the other being Yuji Kondo, not Steven Porter) and here he has a classic 12": white vinyl, four tracks, 45 rpm. Just like the good old days and the music is great too. It continues what we heard on the previous release by Steven Porter: minimalist dance music, not too fast (mid tempo this is called, mid of what I always think), repetitive with the use of sound effects enhanced. Delay machines like a fine dub record, yet this ain't dub. Rhythm plays a central role obviously, and sounds here not too dissimilar to Basic Channel/Chain Reaction of a decade ago (maybe it's about time for a revival, I thought) combined with a more abstract side of the axis Porter Ricks, Pan Sonic and Goem, topped with a dash of field recordings. Does that make any sense these days It's a pity I am not a DJ, I thought. I wouldn't mind this kind of stuff for an evening. This record by Sawa would certainly make it into the mix. No doubt more than once." (Frans de Waard / Vital Weekly)

Celebrating his five years anniversary with a twelfth release, the french imprint CLFT decided to introduce a new artist on its roster. Argentinian producer Luis Ruiz delivers here a 303% Acid EP for his debut on the label. Dah-dah-dah, gwon-gwon-gwon, ga-gyown-gyown... This sounds very caustic, don't sleep on it!

The State of the World E.P. brings you 4 new tracks by Philippe Petit. Appearing develops a positive tone through layers of heavy bass and a deep 808 kick that finally blooms into a warm synth line. Expanding exults happiness thanks to its multiple layered bleepiness, aiming to put the listener in a state of trance. Shrinking is a hard hitting percussive affair, whose relentless beats, driving hi-hats patterns and claps take you into what can be seen as a neverending downward spiral. Disappearing rings the alarm with a 132 bpm fury of pads and subtle acid, but it might already be too late...

Support from Rodhad, Len Faki, Johannes Volk, Boris, Samuli Kemppi, I/Y and many more..

Four new stripped down techno tracks brought to you by Philippe Petit. Road-tested on several dance floors during the last couple of months.

Inspired by the streets of New York in the 1980s when these were rough and rugged, before it all got gentrified... The more East you went, the more dangerous it got - although it was scary at times, I miss that era!

Enjoy the Ride!

Snuffo an excellent artist captures us with its strong and resolute sound, a brilliant track not stop moving. A versatile artist at the time of the production and search for new sounds, always breaking new ground in the musical universe. It is also one of the members of duo Snuff Crew.

Andreas Gehm again with us always the lider on their territory acid, Keeping alive the old school, it is a great exponent of known género.También as Elec Pt.1. It leaves a fantastic intense and hypnotic track. Always captivating with its sound to which we are accustomed. (Great artist always present in our hearts)

Sintex Bortexx producer and dj in the world of underground, works with the styles of house, acid, techno. A addict of the programming synthesizer, incorporates the classic hypnotic bass line with old school style.

May Mc Laren always submerge us in a cold water bath Techno. The Argentinian weaves music with influences New Wave,
Classic Jackin' House, obscure freak Acid, Techno, Electro, (coldness, hardness and more...) But she also knows how to soften, put us in dark and malicious climates. Moving with finesse between forgotten punk gems, unrequited German industrial beat downs and some of her own creations. A style successfully tested on the dance floor . Always clever, energetic and vibrant, makes it even more pervasive. MML weaves a profound auditory tapestry, moving effortlessly through time, location and sonic fascinations. You know, like a real DJ, giving you what you need not what you want, striding through time & space to ensure the very best for their dancefloor and wider listening public. Keep a blood-shot beady eye on this act, talent this bright won't stay in the shadows for long.

Die Berghain-Reihe auf Ostgut Ton geht weiter - mit Volume 07 und acht neuen, exklusiven Tracks auf zwei EPs, alle auf dem Berghain 07-Mix von Function enthalten. Auf Part II finden sich Beiträge von Cassegrain & Tin Man, Inland, DVS1 und Steve Bicknell.

Following a storming barrage of kicks and whistles on "I'm alright mate" via south-westerly label Timedance, Lauded sonic explorer Bruce settles on Hemlock and kindly offers a trio of exotic and rare tracks.'Before You Sleep' is a glimpse into the delirious vacuum of thoughts and weariness induced by habitual insomnia. Lethargic and leaden, the hollow kick drum casts a solemn meter punctuated with blasts of spectral resonance all set against an eerie distant chime. Each pulse weighs deeper as the temperature drops and atmosphere thins. Then it appears.
Cleansed with a lullaby melody floating towards the inevitable dawn, the scene is gradually swept away leaving but a hollow for the new day's air to fill.'In Line' is a scurrying, pneumatic dance spiked with a punch of sparky leads amid pressurised snares and percussion. Never quite settling, frustrated, twice reset the rhythm steadies and we begin to synchronise.
'Sweat' is constructed in plain sight using concurrent bands of symbolic frequencies, each melding together to forge a self-sufficient protective network. Ancient geodesic blueprints inform the design, bolstered by a microscopic workforce of nano-fx and half-drops. Once this would have taken centuries to complete, thankfully we now have the technology and co-ordinates to establish contact before the next wave arrives.

Techno and ambient laden 4 tracker from Kader Yani, latest addition to Semper Memor.

Old School veteran Andrei Morant who's very much now school' making his debut appearance on 4trk here with a stripped down dose of pure, beatin, erky/jerky tracks that drill their point in your head. No need to pepper this one with a verbose intro. Listen and learn......!! Can't tell you equally how excited we are to tell you there's a couple more Andrei Morant tracks coming also on a v/a vinyl compilation soon to follow!!

Footsteps,
savage smile.
Strap the damage to my face.
Iron fist,
it was never loaded.
We care no more,
we don't.

Zenith Positions is a 4 Track collaboration between Modularz label owner Developer and Italian producer and Repitch label owner Ascion. The two producers worked apart in their studios with a similar concept and idea to create a special ep fusing together vintage synthesizers, retro futuristic ideas and funk influenced rhythms with a modern feel. The ep as gained some strong support from all the major DJ talents worldwide. T

Mystica Tribe, the dub tribal master from Tokyo, drops his 5th EP and it comes with a superb Chrissy remix. Taka Noda aka Mystica Tribe returns to his own label, Mystica Tribe Records, with this banging 4 track dubby techno-ish bomb. It's deep dub all around on titletrack Jade Eyes, with the trademark Mystica Tribe melodica lifting the spacey, catchy oriental inspired melody. The Chrissy remix of Jade Eyes is a dubby disco party banger, instantly ready for the dancefloor. There are two more dub beauties on this EP: Love Light and Nightbird. Both tracks drive on deep melodies with Nightbird having beautiful oriental influences. It's the soundtrack to a Japanese spaceship crashing into the desert, its passengers getting picked up by passing nomads, ending up in a smoke filled oasis with palmtrees and belly dancers. Essential stuff for dub heads.

Niko Marks exists at a musical intersection where Stevie Wonder and electronic music collide. Born in Detroit and raised by a family of musicians and singers, Niko was taught chord progressions by his mother on the piano and learned the rest by ear. He took just one music class along the way. It wasn't long before Marks' genre-defying path — and ability to sing, write, produce and play — would link him up with the next wave of Detroit techno.
In the early 1990s, Marks was working under the same roof as underground luminaries like Juan Atkins, Eddie Fowlkes, 'Mad' Mike Banks and Jeff Mills. As Underground Resistance established its iconoclast status, Marks joined collaborative production team Members of the House. On Grand River Avenue in the shadow of Cass Technical High School — Detroit's de facto producer of legends like Donald Byrd, Dorothy Ashby and Ron Carter — Marks was helping produce the Motor City's latest musical exports all before he could legally rent a car. It was almost like a revived Motown for electronic and dance music,' recalls Marks. The freedom of electronic music or dance music — I began to really get into that. You're not reduced to a traditional song format. You're more free.'There's no denying, however, that the traditional background Marks hails from sets his prolific catalog apart from the pack. Marks manages to bend those chord progressions learned on his mother's piano to his will today, creating a bevy of soulful techno and house tracks in his wake for labels like U2X Productions Detroit and Carl Craig's Planet E label. Starting in 1999 with his Niko Marks & the City Boy Players' release with Fowlkes, Marks has released new music nearly every year. As a live performer, he's found himself doing stripped down DJ sets as well as bringing his body of work to life as a jazz trio. The trio gives people something more real,

Following 2014's untitled 12 inch on the Rush Hour "store jams" imprint, Amsterdam based Faster Action now surfaces on L.I.E.S. with a fresh two track 12 inch.

Anyhow fresh but still trusts! 4CR comes with his second vinyl - release,
and it sounds fat. "Menschenskind" has delivered with "Tequila" this time
a real Minimal House bomb with catchy tune character. Organic guitar -
samples and fresh Grooves sound like the fruity sweet taste of summer
which drips in the dusty and dry desert. A touch of western, High Noon
and heat under cloudless sky. "Menschenskind" gives us with Tequila an
acoustic place under the sun, the suitable drink and just the pure groove.
Alec Troniq, Sonntagsmusikant and Tinush deliver their great remixes on
top. While Sonntagsmusikant holds the striking theme first a little more
covered and comes along even more minimally, Alec Troniq with a stylish
variation of the subject rocks more offensively forwards. Tinush adds with
his Remix some Coolness and completes this 4CR Release. This package is
the fruity cocktail, which runs down the dusty throat, while the smell of
the sun and desert is omnipresent. Get a drink, and enjoy Tequila!

Irgendwie fresh aber dann doch vertraut! 4CR kommt mit seinem
zweiten Vinyl - Release, und es kommt dicke. Menschenskind hat mit
- Tequila' diesmal einen waschechten Minimal- House Knaller mit
Ohrwurmcharakter abgeliefert. Organische Gitarren - Sounds und
freshe Grooves klingen wie der fruchtig süße Geschmack von Sommer,
der in die staubtrockene Wüste tropft. Ein Touch von Western, High
Noon und Hitze unter wolkenlosem Himmel. Menschenkind gibt uns
mit Tequila einen akustischen Platz unter der Sonne, den passenden
Drink dazu und den puren Groove. Dabei liefern Alec Troniq,
Sonntagsmusikant und Tinush ihre großartigen Remixe on top.
Während Sonntagsmusikant das markante Thema zunächst etwas
gedeckter hält und noch minimaler daher kommt, rockt - Alec Troniq'
mit einer stylischen Variation des Themas offensiver nach vorne.
Tinush packt mit seinem Remix die Coolness und rundet dieses 4CR
Release gekonnt ab. Dieses Package ist der fruchtige Cocktail der die
Staubige Kehle runter läuft, während der Geruch von Sonne und
Wüste allgegenwärtig ist. Schnapp dir n Drink, und genieß Tequila!

A Sacred Geometry continue their label releases with Chapter III, a collection of tracks that are soft, serene and yet captivating. On the A side is 'Atheres', a track that takes over the entire space, building different sonic structures over the rhythm. 'Nineveh' is more hypnotising, with a sonic groove and a rising synth that move fluidly through the track. The B side is formed of two parts: 'Earendel (Part 1)' consists merely of a pulsating drum and high hats, with whispers of notes only beginning to form towards the end. 'Earendel (Part 2)' continues this but with more structure and tenacity, the beat becomes heavier, the melody more focussed. Collectively and individually the four tracks encapsulate the label's ethos and style, marking Chapter III.

BODYJACK DROPS 2 MELTING HOUSE SLAMMERS ON UTTU BACKED WITH A DJ HAUS REMIX - CLUB USE ONLY BITCH

Spazio Records brings more Swedish goodness in the form of three pulsating techno workouts from east coast mastermind Edmundy. Previously released on iconic Borft Records, he now delivers three fresh and singular cuts of raw jacking techno. Open your mind and explore!

Gunnar returns with 'Scale No Flam', his first 12' single for the label. Scale No Flam is both a love letter and a demonstration of why he can't stop getting lost in the sound. According to Gunnar, 'acid is just one of those things that creeps into your life and consumes everything around you - a psychedelic and textural approach to music that is simultaneously intense and smooth.
.
While acid has come to be defined by the Roland 808 and the 303, the hardware alone can't define the feeling, and Gunnar believes 'You don't need a 303 to make acid, you just need an open ear and an open mind.'

After getting Mike Servito, Justin Cudmore, Derek Plaslaiko, and Bryan Kasenic all running to the booth to see what the fuck was playing at various times when Gunnar was dropping the unreleased 'Scale No Flam' in his DJ sets throughout 2016, we had no choice but to press it to vinyl. Gunnar tells us he was playing around with trying to replicate the bass line of Heaven 17's 1982 classic 'Let Me Go' when 'things kinda mutated.' The A side is completely Gunnar's own with a dominating acid line providing the backbone to a flangey work-out that is simultaneously totally crazy and totally logical. On the B side, fellow Brooklynites and co-members of the Hot Mix DJ crew, Mike Servito and Justin Cudmore add their perspective with a remix that draws out the hidden angular funk.

4 tracks of rhythmic hypnosis from the Swedish Under Molnet label. This fits perfectly with the Grey Area / Techno time-shifting theme, and signifies the growing strength of Under Molnet.

Raw Waxes' sixth release 'One Man Army' features Irish techno artist Lee Holman offering a four tracker obsessive pack without compromises. The record is the second installment of a new series of vinyl releases displaying German illustrator Benedikt Rugar as artwork designer. The record comes in a transparent sleeve with an additional non-credited insert by Rugar representing the imagery of a 'techno ants' marching army going to war against Man.

Techno veteran Jens "Lowtec" Kuhn drops the first release for new Malmo label BlundarFrom the loud tape hiss, spooky melodies and weirdo ambient dub intent of "Track 2", to the moody, early Autechre throb of Skam-ish closer "Track 4". Dancefloor-minded thrills come in the shape of hypnotic opener "Track 1" - all unsettling, one-note chords, restless rhythms and distant electronics - and the hard-to-pigeonhole madness of the schizophrenic "Track 3".

A new reissue is coming from Merv. Two old and lost tracks, dating from '95 and '98 will be reissued by Styrax in September. While DeepChord in America, or the Thule crew from Island have been inspired by the Basic Channel blueprint sound coming from Berlin, a small group of artists tempted to push their own interpretation. Full of energy, strongly cauterized in mind, wanted to get rediscovered.In the year 1995 'Melted Vein' arose. Hypnotized, slowly but full of strength it became back to the theme. Merv educed their own variation, their own soul. You can hear their further development in the track ' Dust', from 1998. Pads and melodies, from different galaxies, mixed with ascending chords, kept together with the 909. Two tracks, two epic tracks, the pure Merv magic! Both have been re- mastered at the traditionally Berlin Mastering Studios D&M.

Spaced Out Bias Hammers.

This record collects many intimate things and singular ideas about Voiski, it is also an excellent synthesis of his musical style, and how it is evolving towards a more and more unknown territory, where his "post-trance" idea collides classic Detroit influences, 90's techno (with that Underworld cover obviously) and a very unique sonic identity he has developed playing his synths with a bright and powerful sound design, and rich arpeggios.

YPY is the work of Osaka based Koshiro Hino. Having recently released on labels such as Nous, his own label BirdFriend, and the legendary EM records Koshiro now presents the 7 track LP '2020' for Where To Now Records.

The LP leads with the slow building, off kilter title track '2020', where flurries of eastern horns skitter beneath evolving layers of wonked yet beautifully balanced percussive movements, coming off like a technoid homage to the fourth world works of Eno & Hassel. As is the case with much of Hino's music, as the piece develops it takes on heavier and heavier modes of experimentation and excitement - turbines whirr and fizz alongside layers and layers of percussion, constantly teetering on the edge of No-Wave breakdown whilst never losing sight of the rhythmic backbone, recouping from every moment of collapse with total grace.

Hino swings from this cacophony of rhythms on '2020' to the playful, straight-laced ghetto tech burn of 'Soup', using layer upon layer of low key jazzed melody and percussion to gather pace and momentum, showing another side of the YPY palette with a deep groove and melody indebted to the work of Carl Craig as Psyche/BFC and the like.

Hino creates a musical world that veers from the frantic to the sublime seamlessly and appears to ground his interest in the potential harmony of these two states - or more specifically, how the two can exist in a way which keeps heads down and bodies moving in a dancefloor capacity whilst challenging the listeners expectations at every turn. Whilst obviously this is not a new concept, it is Hino's own historic steeping in experimental drone, improvisation, and his work with his intense, hypnotic, minimalist psych outfit Goat which allow him to hold a unique position in this electronic realm.

Yusaku Shigeyasu (Juno Plus) further conveys this aura of Hino's work in a YPY feature piece for Juno Plus, writing - 'Intensity is a common thread that runs through all of Hino's sprawling productions. It isn't necessarily synonymous with a boisterous, forceful sound. He eschews conspicuous structures or overt arrangements and brings a sonic potential out of sober materials, creating deceptively stark pieces with a dramatic impact that capture and hold the attention from the off.' - Yusaku Shigeyasu / Juno Plus

Hino's more rockist influences are perhaps most pertinent on 'Ash' which embodies this improvisational and stark approach to rhythm. 'Soup' is a doomy, sludge hybrid of fizzing electronics and stoner swagger, owing as much to contemporary artists such as Earth and Om, as it does to the first wave of Japanese and German experimental psych of the early 70's. It's a piece which is unlike anything else on the record, a vital piece of the puzzle when understanding where Koshiro is coming from, yet leaving no clues as to where he is going.

Exotic tracks from the fruit loving Dutch Producer.

Boys Noize' Album "Mayday" offenbarte eine neue Musikalität des Berliner DJ/Produzenten und enthielt echte Songs statt rau-aggressive Club-Bretter. Die "Mayday Remixes" bringen uns nun wieder zum Ursprung des Geschehens, dem dunklen Dancefloor-Basement. Neben einem eigenen, absolut jacking Acid-Overdub liefert uns Boys Noize auf der neuen Remix-EP noch Club-Tools von Minimal Wave's Amato im EBM Sound, Dubstep-Urgestein Skream sowie Hamburgs einzigartigem Tensnake mit einer deepen Exkursion.

Through ten-year-experience, CRIME RECORDS is now coming to life in the Salento area (Italy). Mainly based on electronic and techno music, CRIME RECORDS is an indipendent, eco-friendly and strictly old-school label.

The project comes from an idea of Ilaria Mazzotta and Matteo Ria and it aims to spread music only and exclusively throught vinyls and by two realeases every year.

The first release collects the music by the DJs animating the Crime Festival (Salento's summer electronic meeting) and connects Apulia's sound to the best International panorama.

NAIDA Lab will be the promoter of the label, pioneer in event organisation, refined and dedicated in good quality music spreading and careful to the dares of contemporaneity.

Preternity' is a vinyl that collects together four of the most dynamic artists in electronic music delving into tracks from Dadub's forthcoming album 'You Are Eternity'. Dadub's album positions itself as part of an eternity which is forever recurring and in this context Lucy, Lakker, Rrose and Kangding Ray's remixes emerge as parallel versions of the original tracks. Revolving around the axis of 'You Are Eternity' the artists use analogue machines and digital devices to either encode or decode Dadub's vision. SA016 is preoccupied with sounds that point to our most basic assumptions. It's a collection of tracks that are determined to ask questions even if they can't really be answered. All four artists selected the Dadub track that they wanted to remake, and what has been pressed to vinyl are part instinctive reconfigurations and part reflected rethinkings of that source material. This vinyl is a unique look at the processes of four of electronic music's most keen experimenters and a moreish taste of what's to come from Dadub's debut album, 'You Are Eternity'. - Album launch: Dadub Live @ Berghain 16.02.2013

REPRESSED !!

Berlin-based Doc Sleep's debut EP on Bottom Forty is a record that pulls no punches and plays no tricks; it is instead a sophisticated, gorgeous array of minimal techno inspired by the darkest of dance floors. Doc Sleep's ear for sound and rhythm set the tone for your moments of eyes-shut dancing, giving you the chance to hang onto every subtle but flawlessly executed fragment of noise.


'First Solar' opens up with a contrasting blend of dark, rolling hills of bass and bright pads that quickly pick up a dangerous amount of momentum. The moment the track 'Between' pounds its first kick, you can't help but be immediately sucked in by Doc Sleep's ear for sophisticated, minimal, beautifully engineered sounds. Between is a track that stays on its groove while soft gorgeous pads pass over you like waves, it's the perfect time for patrons of a dingy basement dance floor to connect in the dark. Lastly, 'Ampere' is a track that lays out a solid techno soundscape that is mixed up at the listeners surprise with heavily reverb'd snare hits and brooding sweeps.


On the B side, two remixers bring Doc Sleep's EP into a different dimension. Bottom Forty label head Nark extracts the gorgeous pads and pulls them to the forefront of 'Between', starting with a long ethereal intro sure to stop and sway any dance floor before continuing into a grimy minimal 303 bass line as the subtle rubs to Doc Sleep's original sounds lend it an exasperated grinding element. The second remix from Bottom Forty artist Cid & Fancy takes 'Ampere' into a place of rhythmic organized chaos with synth stabs that shoot off like metal sparks.

We love La Fraicheur for her emotionally rooted and minimal grooves, and she doesn't dissapoint with her take on 'First Solar', a driving, linear rhythm with unexpected analog twists and turns and the most heated breakdown on the record that we've personally witnessed energize many Berlin dance floors into a dancing frenzy.

After Hollen's very successful remix for our Piemont release in summer 2013 we are happy to have him back with his full proper release on Terminal M. Since Monika Kruse loves and plays Hollen's tracks and remixes heavily it was only a matter of time to get together for this Terminal M premiere.

A collapse of any truth, absence of light, and spectroscopic industrial manoeuvres in the dark: this is Isolated Process Ep realized by Kwartz.
Isolated process is a robotic monotonic thought deep down the furthest abyss.
Belling drums alongside drones and solid grey basslines appears on first Function and Second Function:
two different points of view, two moments about the same hypnotic march. Milton
Bradley's remix is a slower exploration of what remains alive underneath the space. Slow
and cyclical beats hits back the mind once lost in the ocean.
Pure machine darkness.

Landing with a bang and in time for height of the summer season comes Eastern European producer and DJ Timmo, a rising tech house talent that's already released with the likes Drumcode and Waveform Recordings, now makes his mark with Gregor Tresher's always on point Break New Soil label.  

On the In My World EP, the Bulgarian focuses on tempo, rhythm and drive, turning in a 3 track EP of non-nonsense dance floor ammo, eschewing remixes and collaborative numbers for a full fat collection that allows the budding producer to explore all facets of his sound. 

Title track In My World pushes a heavy slab of sub bass, before hissing and ticking snares - packed full of swing and pace - push the track forward, as radiating, mid range bass pierces the track's plain. More groovy than Komplex - adorned by progressive melodies - it's dark overtones and unapologetic effects make for an equally as moody piece for those with itchy feet. 

Next up Timmo asks you to Trust In Me, as he notches the bass up further, with kick and baseline merging into one heavy lead rhythm, while compressed snares lift up the track in bursts of major tonal chord progression, restlessly deviating through a simultaneous weaving of high and low melodic touches.

Finally Komplex - a driving, mechanistic track that piles on the hypnotic, hydraulic overtones. Snarling, gnashing and tough, its drop heralds the arrival of a thudding kick drum, producing the back bone as the track hisses, pops and bangs through its deep groove and 808 claps.

Brilliant album remix package including huge mixes by Luis Flores, Audio Injection, Angel Costa & Cortechs... limited edition on yellow & red vinyl!!!

REPRESSED !!
Comprised of Bristol based sound artists Adam Winchester and Christopher Jarman,
Dot Product comes to light in a swathe of noise, tone and texture.

Through years of research and experimentation the duo have sought to explore the creative potential from the inaudible fog of electromagnetic radiation, the internal resonance found in the negative space of an object, the circuitry of discarded electronics, and other such less-travelled paths of sound generation. In harnessing these clandestine sonics and bringing them within a listenable range, the resulting collages of sound have been shaped into a form that nods to the legacy of uncompromising British experimental electronic music, from early industrial savagery to bass-heavy soundsystem pressure. Such reference points are abstract though, for within the truly unique array of sources at their disposal, Winchester and Jarman have a new dialect in which to communicate.

Crucially, while there may be a scientific approach at the heart of the Dot Productmethodology, the results are far from clinical. There are subversive rhythms aplenty throughout the album, from the jagged ripples of 'Skafander' to the slow, dread-fuelled march of 'Springs'. There is also space for touches of melody; 'Atmosphere Processor' swoons with blue-hued melancholy, while 'Ice Patches' stalks on an ominous bass mantra.

After sharing the initial results of their research, the pair performed select live shows in Bristol and London, as well as being commissioned to create a sonic interpretation of Swedish horror film Let The Right One In. This debut album on Osiris is the culmination of these initial steps, these 9 tracks representing the most complete document of the Dot Product sound to no repress

A new reissue is coming from Merv. Two old and lost tracks, dating from '95 and '98 will be reissued by Styrax in September. While DeepChord in America, or the Thule crew from Island have been inspired by the Basic Channel blueprint sound coming from Berlin, a small group of artists tempted to push their own interpretation. Full of energy, strongly cauterized in mind, wanted to get rediscovered.In the year 1995 'Melted Vein' arose. Hypnotized, slowly but full of strength it became back to the theme. Merv educed their own variation, their own soul. You can hear their further development in the track ' Dust', from 1998. Pads and melodies, from different galaxies, mixed with ascending chords, kept together with the 909. Two tracks, two epic tracks, the pure Merv magic! Both have been re- mastered at the traditionally Berlin Mastering Studios D&M.

Boundary: After a successful launch of his own imprint last year, label owner Aiken is now back with the second EP. His first release of 2016 and the second release on the Timelime imprint counts four four-to-the-floor techno bangers in his own signature style. Warehouse proof peaktime.





 
 

UK based producer Dez Williams on the new Cologne based label ParallelX with a five track EP ranging from Electro, Techno and Wave to Drone Ambient.

The ancient haruspex used to read chicken liver in a bid to predict the future and foresee natural disasters. Taking influence from this technic, Fango embarked on a long insular trip, reflecting down till the depths of his own soul. The outcome of this arcane ritual is "Viscera", a series of 3 EP's focused on the pure essence of Fango's artistic delirium.

Like a slug persistently stuck to the bottom of a half-pipe in the community park over which there has been much debate, Grey People has long been making tracks within proximity of the teenage forbidden zone from the detached, elemental perspective of a dark, moist creature."Cryogenically Frozen" -- should we be Schwarzenegger cries liquid nitrogen teardrops but allows you entree to the dance floor, filled with the icy carved physiques of electro snowmen."Coma Tunnel" makes going flatline sound beautiful and sad. The fluorescent hum of the bulbs lighting the conical ceramic passage to oblivion provides a nostalgic pillow to press our face into.On the B side, the Tornhawk squad mess-up of "Coma Tunnel" begins with toddler-techno thuggery. Then guitar chews Grape Nuts cereal all loud in the ear of your high school principal. Then some screechy, finally soothing greeting from the angels that escort you to afterlife's beanbag chair.

the man with more machines than you drops 3 tracks of syncopated science on Skudge... TIP!

Various artists exploring more obscure territories of musical universe. Ambient soundscapes, subtle
grooves, hypnotic tunnels, mesmerizing melodies, tectonic rattle, are just some things to expect on
this submersive journey. Out on limited edition 180g clear vinyl.

The latest release from Breach's own Naked Naked imprint is brought to us by Leeds based Viers aka Jordon Saxton. Part of the new wave of UK house and techno producers, the forward thinking producer already has five releases under his belt, including a 12inch on Seb Wildblood and Ape's 'Church' imprint. For his third outing on Naked Naked, Jordon once again assumes his Viers alias for another dose of dancefloor-ready techno. On the A side 'Dissipate' makes use of sparse elements to construct a hypnotic, minimal groove. Skippy hi-hats dance around a solid but simple bassline, creating a bouncy, satisfying energy. On the flip SMS's dubby stabs combine with rattling percussion to establish a driving, relentless rhythm. Full of intensity, this one is definitely built for peak hour dancefloor damage. Due to drop on 16th October, Viers 'Dissipate/SMS' release is another great edition to Ben Westbeech's Naked Naked Catalogue.

The second release of Inkblots involves three great artists deeply active into the international techno scene: the japanese Go Hiyama and the Berlin based duo I/Y.
On Side A, Go Hiyama's first track 'Recur' delivers sinister atmospheres matched with a tough kick and industrial bleepy elements. Slow and paranoic drones get in and out contributing to enlarge the sound perception. The second track 'Prop' introduces elegant hi-hats and strident synths. A captivating kick perfectly embraces the shrill synths waving together with the sharp drum, what remains of the first side is just tense ambients, forewarning the journey is not over. Side B smells like a dark club firing up, indeed I/Y's aim is not different at all. 'Tethys
0000.001' debuts with a thin bassline and distorted grave surroundings. The track evolves with clean slap hats sound in an empty echo chamber. Deep timbres rise and fall, turning the entire route gently aggressive. The second track is an IDM experiment which keeps a trippy approach and the clarity of claps and hi-hats.
Solid as the first one, 'Tethys 0000.003' sets itself as an hypnotic but pleasant moment where suspicious fragments quickly appear and disappear: a sparkled trip to be enjoyed anytime but not by anyone. 

The New Year marks a time of change, fresh starts and new beginnings and 2017 will see the launch of a brand new vinyl series from 20/20 Vision.
Up first on the series we welcome Portuguese native Marco Rodriguez, aka Photonz. He first caught our ear with his early output on cult London imprint Dissident, and then went on to release with tastemaker labels Crème Organization & Hot Haus.
Negative Cities Pt.1 is filled with the deep, rich & fat analog sounds that Photonz has become renowned for. Whether it's intergalactic acid bangers like 'Astral Acid', the skipping hi-hats and wonky shuffle of 'Death Drive', or the driving main room techno of 'Somewhere I Read', there's enough ammunition here to satisfy any house and techno connoisseur.
Negative Cities Pt.1 is out 13th February on 20/20 Vision.
Limited to 300 copies.

The second output by the Russian project Syberian transmits the dimmed depth within coniferous roots. According to political aggression against the resistance of good will tribe and instead of conformist pollution this sounds are unfolded to attract a classy intelligent energy. Suitable for home sessions or insular movements.

The 10th release of Float Records will be celebrated in style by label owners TWR72. They present you their own new EP called 'X'. Three original groove monsters supported by an intense and profound remix from Endlec.
X1 has a remarkable and outspoken bassline with a slighty 'back in the days'-feel created by the drums. Slowly the organ theme grows and grows until you get used to it. Heavy hitting claps make sure to keep your attention towards the break. And then... X2 has a driving groove as the main subject. Steered by an almost annoying high pitched pad and later some haunting strings. The real science starts when Endlec works his magic. His unique drum programming and distorted yet sophisticated approach of the elements creates the best remix. X3, the fast groover with a slick bassline, a cheeky synth and jacking drums is perhaps a safe approach. But we guarantee this will work on every dancefloor. As a digital bonus there is another brilliant remix by Endlec. Judge it yourself.

LTD colored repress !!

Coloured cover, shiny wax!

E The 'E' stands for Enneagram, which is a way to classify which personality type you belong to. In other words, it describes which 'lens you see your reality' and in which stage of your personal development you made this decision.

Now the collection has converged into a whole album as promised, the cover art segments merged into one full colourful Enneagram designed by Aaron Bolte. Enclosed a shiny Lucidflow vinyl with four excellent Klartraum dreams:

Bill Bill ramps up the tension, using the dub theme but increasing the tempo. Hidden deep in the mix is a low constant held string, the very antithesis of the classic disco string.

Drama Queen, it swings and wiggles before developing with a 70's detective mystery edge.

This then leaves Dark Space Night, abandoning the sleazy speakeasy mood for breathless dub techno momentum. This is the bread and butter of Klartraum, merging light and dark simultaneously in one continuous movement.

Bell Birds Dub sets the tone by exquisitely moving through deep dub darkness with only the briefest sun shafts shining through.

The talented Italian producers Pietro Caprioglio aka Autre and Federico Pedron aka Xinner kicking it off with - Nebula . An emotional piece of late night techno music full of analog warmth and heart warming depth. Autre´s - Seiryu is an athmospheric and loopy groove monster for the deeper dancefloors. Dresden´s Kryptic Universe delivers with - 01309 Stairways one of those georgeous and simply perfect analogue sounding dub techno tracks. Incredibly textured piece of work wich could have been already a classic since the golden basic channel / chain reaction years.Owen Jay and Brian James closing it up with - chordless . This is a mind blowing take of chord driven club material.

New Year = new R Zone. This time the revivalist rave crew, brutal techno lovers and broken beat brothers--whoever they may be--serve up three more tantalising tracks that are designed simply for high dance floor impact. 'Greatest Enemy' is first and lives in a deep space world where jungliest percussion and pummelling drums are offset with swirling pads and warm synths. It's an emotional roller coaster that gets followed up by 'Spike', a manic and prickly speaker blaster with wild melodies and rave stylings all barely continued by punch and off beat kick drums. Last of all, 'Faramore Agent' is in your face with its frazzled bass, skittish percussion and vocal stabs all panning about left and right. One again this is brilliantly all over the place and impossibly visceral music designed to devastate all who hear it.

DJ feedback:

Dona aka Dj Plant Texture (Creme Organization):
"Yes yes yesssssaaa!"

Hunee (Hunch Music / Rush Hour):
"i happily step into the r-zone whenever that moment comes along!"

"Faramone Agent and Rise are the tits"

Back at the beginning of the summer, Dubfire unveiled "Exit," his magical collaboration with Miss Kittin. The powerful and sultry vocal cut immediately garnered anthem status, heralding a perfect balance between the techno stalwarts' precise, funky rhythms and Kittin's unique, robotic vocal delivery. Support was across the full breadth of the DJ spectrum, also featuring in Resident Advisor's Monthly Top 50 charts. 

A special synergy and chemistry was born between the two that demanded to be further explored when new remixes by the French dream team of Brodinski and long-time Kittin collaborator The Hacker materialized. 

The Hacker ensures carnage with his huge pile-driving synth riff, whilst Bromance boss Brodinski goes straight for the jugular with a crushing kick drum and impressive vocal trickery.

Francesco's new vinyl EP called "No System" includes 4 tracks.

Polluted System is a track suitable for the main room, the energy of the kick and the bass leave no respite from start to finish as a joint of metal percussion and synths fit gradually to fill the sound spectrum of this track.

Becomes Human Machine in a few minutes, using acid and industrial sounds, conveys the idea of the change that is happening around us: people are becoming more and more machines, and this is the soundtrack of the mutation.

Unlocked Human, while remaining in acid and mechanical territories, thanks to a groove of more organic toms and hi hat still let the human element glimpse, not yet deleted by the machines, all accompanied by a relentless kick which makes it a perfect tool from the dancefloor .

No System, which give the title to the EP, ends this sequence with dreamy and futuristic atmospheres, the ruling part is still a simple but instantly recognizable acid bass, over breakbeat-oriented rhythmics.

On the this latest release from Power Vacuum, a motley selection of inmates gather once more to deliver a new seminar on the mechanics of meltdown. Beyond the zone of fruitless intensity lies ever more exhaustive trailer park visionaries blasting out wreck beats; a sound futuristic yet primitive like a turbo charged shire horse. Peering through the heavily worked over fug, we sift through the transphonic ashes of technos blast furnace to retrieve these molten ingots and sling them into a disenfranchised cassette player.

Born of a love and passion for dance music, Tulipe records blossoms from roots founded in the cosmopolitan cities of Rome and Montreal to announce an exclusive vinyl release. Focused on the fundamental premise of 'positive energy' from established and newcomer artists alike, a quartet of tracks provides a cutting edge snapshot of the current house music landscape as 'Tulipe Ltd Bloom Series Vol.2' finds physical reality.

Opening with a French legend, Damien Almira takes his Timid Boy production moniker on a trip through a deep, tech-fuelled groove that pounds its way along a wondrous path in 'Post Rave Dream'. Filtering out into percussive textures and rich pads, both spin across the stereo spectrum in dizzying glory to mesmeric effect. Neapolitan, DJ Simi continues proceedings on Side A with the chugging, hypnotic monster, 'Advanz T3'. Rapid-fire hats and a dominant kick keep the pace high as percussive claves beat out a melodic refrain to match a analogue riff and pulsating, pitched pad.

Spanish duo Robin Orlando and Nick Hollyster open Side B with the delicious, laid-back 'Humita'. A simple and emotive bass line provides the backdrop for a smooth arpeggio to sit atop creating further layers of sonic ingenuity, while vocal phrasing from Christian Godoy contributes to create a house classic. Chilean, Larry Peters completes the picture with tech house monster that provides an eclectic mix of sampled effects and dissonant melodies on 'Orbit 4.0'. Laconic vocal phrasing provides a carefully placed rhythmic structure, wrapped around the structured beats to create a work of dance floor delight.

Four tracks burst into 'Bloom' as Tulipe continues to flower in bright rich colour.

Unknown To The Unknown present a new 4 track club EP from New York 'Outsider House' luminary Willie Burns. By day a swimming instructor & record buyer at the world famous thrift store The Thing.

Working together for 16 years and counting, Craig Smith & Graeme Clark aka 6th Borough Project possess unrivalled experience. They've DJ'd at pivotal clubs next to the biggest names, released music on seminal labels, and cultivated a solid knowledge of everything from Jazz, funk and soul to Chicago house and Detroit Techno. Something of a rarity to find in the artists of today.
Following up two solid LPs on revered label Delusions Of Grandeur, 2011's One Night In The Borough and 2014's Borough 2 Borough, Find Your Rhythm marks the duo's third album and is released on Graeme's own Roar Groove imprint. It will feature long time collaborator vocalist Paul Joseph and ties into a new Edinburgh based residency of the same name.
Spanning everything from disco, house, techno and hip-hop, Find Your Rhythm is an impactful return and testifies the duo's ever-present innovation and mastery that simply does not falter with time.

'Anonymous' is a regular tune in Chris Liebing's sets across the world since summer 2014. The track has been selected by Rebekah on her 'Mind Sets' compilation on CLR. 'Anonymous' is a subtle groove driven techno tune designed for the dancefloor. On the flip side of CLR087 Emerson takes us on a cinematic journey with his very own 'Too Many People Talking (Not Enough Information)". A mesmerizing ambient tune that invites us to get into Emerson's universe. 'Anonymous EP' by Emerson is surely one CLR release not to be missed. It's big! (Chris Liebing's words)

EoOo AKA Eomac is one half of Dublin based duo Lakker, but is also a DJ and producer in his own right. With support from APHEX TWIN!!!, releases on TRILOGY TAPES and now touching down on hype label of 2013 UNKNOWN TO THE UNKNOWN ... 4 tracks of blistering techno electronics recalling the career highs of ERRORSMITH, ZOMBY, AROVANE & PHONEM!

Debut release for Scuderia, Luciano Lamanna Moon Child' is a dancefloor killer blending
hyopnotic synth with buried harmonic echoes over a violent kick and a powerful bassline.
Another heavyweight takes care about the remix: Unit Moebius Anonymous. He reworks the
track adding an acid noise trace that leads into extraterrestrial war march recalling cynical
atonal Techno form.

A rosy light, shows her profile Bleeds of tears and the bruises over her face. The shouts, have deafened of herself, the ears Short is the breath, given by the humiliation The curled up limbs, to do not feel pain. And those tired eyes, To see of her nightmares, the faces They fade, as dissolving the dim light is, of another, damp, sun. -UTOPIAN SOUL -

Downfall Theory embarks on a new chapter as it hosts a full release from a producer other than its owner, Sanys. Myztical isn't exactly a newcomer though, and the Ukrainian producer has already two releases to his credit on Nicz Records. Given the title of his debut on Downfall Theory, it is no surprise to learn that Myztical is using it as a means to question reality. Inspired by the science fiction writer Philip K Dick and decades of electronic music, he certainly succeeds on venturing into uncharted territories on the title track. Muffled, repetitive vocal samples, an atonal rhythm and relentless, slightly distorted kicks show that quite often, simplicity is the most potent ingredient. On Faith of our Fathers', Myztical disappears farther down the wormhole. Splintered rhythms, deranged howls and a deranged filter push his vision for broken beat techno into the abyss. Substance D' sees the Ukrainian hotshot return to a more linear approach, pounding kicks underpin ghostly shrieks before a breakdown sees the track descend into grimy, Woody McBride-style acid. The accompanying vocal sample, the embodiment of a bad trip, only serves to accentuate the track's darkly hallucinogenic qualities. Finally, there's Shifted Realities' - it revisits the jagged filters of Faith of our Fathers', but does so against the backdrop of a pounding industrial kick and a grungy, low-slung rhythm.

Welcome to the strange and wonderful world of Myztical - and enjoy the trip!

In context of the first record on SCHLEIFEN, the abstract theme of eternity and decay is made tangible through dedication and love for detail. Ravechild seems to grow four distinct pieces out of same roots, just to forge a whole new construct by uniting the individual cuts. Tunes made for a variety of moods and situations.

Banging Acid Techno with a cheeky edge.

The Noisemaker is back on Raw Waxes with his typical sinister, analogue-only electronic and techno music excursions, after the first series of EPs remixed by Inigo Kennedy, Mike Parker, Blind Observatory and more. All productions are meant and released to offer a 'living the moment' musical concept. The artwork has been realized by Benedikt Rugar, German illustrator continuing the abstract porn visual imaginary since the label fifth release.

JoeFarr presents Sense Of Purpose, the massively anticipated first full-length album from the pioneering Bristol producer.
March sees Joe make a swift return to Bloc with his second consecutive release on the rapidly growing imprint following on from his debut 'RPM' EP released at the end of January this year.
Joe is widely regarded as a skilled craftsman of electronic music, having flourished quickly since he first emerged in 2011 to become an identifiable name within the underground scene.
In 5 short years he's built an impressive body of work, including recent productions onLeisure System, Turbo and Power Vacuum, which have secured him a reputation as one of our most forward thinking, innovative and inspiring musical talents.
'Sense Of Purpose' delves deep into Farr's creative core, exploring the many facets of his musical personality. Beautifully crafted synth workouts sit shoulder to shoulder with early Warp-style ambient works and a handful of the raucous techno bombs that he's built his reputation on. Whichever sound he turns his hand to, the results are nothing less than extraordinary.

Limited pressing on blue marbled vinyl including remixes by Subjected, UVB, Neil Landstrumm and the Horrorist.

After his great record on Innervisions, the guys from Exit Strategy convinced Nuiton to get this killer release for their label.

Like Baudelaire once said: - You need three things to create art: currentness, history and last but not least coincidence'

"Despite we are all living an overwhelming moment for the contemporary age, reality keeps being a
never-ending source of interests and not-yet-explored boundaries.
The record that you're currently holding has mainly evolved from inner-explorations. Brainy and
ecstatic journeys emerged through a single conscious being in the from of a sonic statement, based
upon echoing thoughts, empirical experiences and synthesized journeys recorded at some point of the
space-time curvature.
The very first of many to come from HARA."
Barcelona 2016
The first release of Hara Records is signed by Spear.
The EP presents 4 tracks, with different shapes and moods, from the ambient of ''She's coming from a
dark and warm place'' to the mental groove of ''Gravity Waves''.

Expect to be confronted with a bit of a surprise here when you listen to the a-side of the brand-new Max Cooper on Traum.Max has never plaid around with arpeggiators in this way jet and also the "togetherness" of the soundscape is not very typical for him. But let us say this much, this track is a big track in his live sets, very much a crowd pleaser and when the bassline kicks in at 4 minutes it gets all cosmic and a massive collective feel is installed.The track is a repetitive one and the rushing of the hi-energy powered sequencer gives a nice contrast to the later added strings which add a superb  melancholic Detroit feel.We expect this track to do nice in clubs.

XCPT Music rises from underground electronic music event series taking place in the suburbs of Matera, South Italy, as mature development deeply rooted and inspired by the UK 90's scene. It kicks off with label's manager and co-owner Nothus first release, 'Fragments Of Loneliness', a 12" limited press coming out in the end of September. His first release illustrates a mixture of breaking beats, jungle vibes and Detroit soul textures, coexisting in balance in all the tracks with a special broken beat reshape made by Italian artist Andrea (Ilian Tape), one of the most interesting newcomer of European techno scene. Label artworks represent specific corners of the beautiful Matera city, recently rewarded as European Capital of Culture 2019, and cradle of the label sound.

Here comes the second release of this label that left everyone impressed with the first vinyl....

Techno based in Berlin

2 supreme Chicago heavyweights go head to head across 2 slabs of wax... step up Boo Williams & Glen Underground!

These 2 producers should need no introduction, they've both help shape the second wave of Chicago's House sound with their own inimitable styles over a slew of classic releases since the mid 90's. This double-pack is pure fire & was originally released in 1995 on miniscule Trax offshoot MAAD, fans of that bouncing, stripped back, funked out House music look no further, it's all right here!

Across the 2 discs you'll find back to back bangers, a serious addition to any DJ's bag & throwing a whole lot of styles into the blender Boo & Glen don't let up!

Meda Fury welcome back Oakland resident Damon Bell for another accomplished EP of rugged cosmic grooves and tribal pressure.Bell is riding a rich wave of form with a killer recent release on Don't Be Afraid, and even more fire on the Burek label, not forgetting his impressive debut last year on his regular home, the mighty Deepblak - he's a proven master at fusing Afro-centric rhythms, rich keys and off-kilter pads into an urgent and contemporary form of house music that deftly eschews cliche.Akebu-Lan' commences the ritual with a gospel vocal loop over pumping 808 kicks and tranced out swollen pads, giving way to ecstatic fender rhodes chords and climatic piano, reminiscent of Robert Hood - is this Bell's fastest bpm track yet
Loose/live jazz keys riff throughout 'Ether' creating a warm rich miasma of sound against the distressed percussive gyrations and sinister drones.Hypnotic synth riffs tumble over the powerful drum-track in 'Altered Visions' creating a deliciously hypnotic chug.Drawing the EP to a close, Deepblak and PAN cohort African Sciences joins Bell for the sizzling 'Kinetic Energy'; a sleazy, skronking cut of slurred moog bass and atonally pitched toms wrestling with thumping kicks and whispered vox pummel the listener.

On this ep Dany Rodriguez wrote another story of his work with this Hypnotica Hunter EP Including a remix of the legendary James Ruskin. Listen and have a nice trip.

"Ode To Eskapism" is dedicated to all of those that use techno as a way in to escapism. To those that use techno as a mental diversion from the perceived unpleasant, boring, arduous, scary, or banal aspects of daily life. Those that cannot subsist on the scanty satisfaction they can extort from reality alone. Those that feel the need to dissociate from reality in order to experience it. To all of those that emerges recreated, stronger and full of life after a weekend escape into techno.
The label Bond is the brainchild of Swedish techno DJ and producer Petter B. The concept of the label is "music by DJs for DJs". The label focuses on releasing tracks that enable the DJ, rather than the producer, to be creative. It is based on that special bond which is created every time a DJ combines tracks, loops and sounds live into something new and unique.

Coming from the steaming underground scene of Belgrade, brushed with dark abstract, yet romantic ideas of space and ambience, Tapan presernt their first EP with the ever growing family of Malka Tuti. Tapans dark atmospheric industrial sound, infused with balkan or even middle-eastern percussions sits perfect with the Malka Tuti soundscape. Following their acclaimed releases on Crimes of The Future and WT Recordings, Tapan present us with Tarantella and Poison High, two slow chugging and very atmospheric, somewhat melancholic tunes for the late hours. On the remix Black Merlin delivers a great pushing forward slow dub-trance tun, driven by a massive bassline...

Through ten-year-experience, CRIME RECORDS is now coming to life in the Salento area (Italy). Mainly based on electronic and techno music, CRIME RECORDS is an indipendent, eco-friendly and strictly old-school label.

The project comes from an idea of Ilaria Mazzotta and Matteo Ria and it aims to spread music only and exclusively throught vinyls and by two realeases every year.

The first release collects the music by the DJs animating the Crime Festival (Salento's summer electronic meeting) and connects Apulia's sound to the best International panorama.

NAIDA Lab will be the promoter of the label, pioneer in event organisation, refined and dedicated in good quality music spreading and careful to the dares of contemporaneity.

The Cryovac is a machine that is brought to life by a network of players with their own unique vision and technique. Cryovac houses a noble breed that does not bend to popular dogma. This machine functions as a platform for true independent voices to be heard from all sectors of the detroit underground. Cyovac believes in artists that believe in their mission.

If a machine is the sum of its parts, then this cryovac is made solid from a cast of devoted characters. Jason Garcia brings his player lifestyle to the forefront with 'what the deal', a summer jam that is a palatial sure shot dance floor banger. Kero is an old master, pulling his sounds from self made mods and tricky analog set ups to tell a story of glitching techno formations coming in and out of focus. Joe Covio is a restless and relentless sound tinkerer that delivers a poppy style of 4/4 that moves logically through nervous equations. Each endeavor works together to build a complete statement of the Cryovac form.

Classic EP from Virgo from 1986. 4 classic tracks including 'R U Hot Enough'.
