Not too speed and not too hard and very mental and thin, precise swing. A superb release from the Erredeka Sound System !

Slow Life Program is a space traveler involved in the creation of techno, ambient and accessible electronica.

Creating his own tunes, SLP combines deep technical nuances, acid sounds,dub-fluids and broken grooves, adds some deep surrounding elements and mixes them with the natural sounds recorded by him. As a result, he draws universal figures lying somewhere between dub,techno, acid, house, ambient and glitch electronics.

Banging Rave techno, dancefloor industrial sound...
FAT label from Paris Aera !

Gerd Janson, Lexx, Bell Towers, Belia Winnewisser, DJ Kaos and Never4ever remixed Ethimm’s By Night EP.

We all know Nights are nicer when you are with your friends, so Ethimm asked some of his old friends and favorite acts to remix his recent EP ‘By Night’. Quite a few hopped on the bandwagon: Germany’s most prolific remixer and DJs DJ Gerd Janson turned Ethimm’s ‘Lies’ into a relentlessly deep and driving house cut with drums reminiscent of New Order. Balearic boss Lexx stripped the track down to its bare vocal and rebuilt it with a 90ies New York vibe. Bell Towers added his prototypical leftfield approach to ‘Don’t Go Away’, while Berlin’s legendary DJ Kaos remade it into a classic acid stomper. The remix EP is completed by newcomer Never4Ever’s breakbeat treatment of the same track and swiss experimental queen Belia Winnewisser’s treatment of ‘Island Jam’.

Luke Sanger brings a calm yin to an energized yang in his new EP, Mountain Dance for Cosmic Pint Glass, with Jamie Paton and Møzaika remixes. Limited to150 x black 12″ vinyl with hand finished screen-printed sleeves.

Thissperso is an Argntinian producer from Buenos Aires, currently based in Barcelona. Since the begining, he is part of the 63 crew.His music has gone from ebm to club music, always expressing kind of anxiety. He calls it visceral vomit.
Since the first track might very well express the album tone, beetween sadness, anger and anxiety. From ebm to kinda club music, the album might bring you somewhere where hope has no place to be. Where death is inevitable and witnessing is the only thing to do.

Yozy is a DJ and producer from Uruguay, now based in Barcelona. Constantly looking for sweet melodies and hard percussions. In this his first release, in physical format, his music is characterized by an amazing expressiveness, and an exceptional forcefulness. Her development in the tracks makes it unthinkable that this artist remains anonymous for a long time.

Acid tribe, progressive and menta long tunes for a maximum pleasure !

Rave sound of a kind..; old school with a thick texture, total brutal style !

A blossoming creative relationship has been bubbling between young talent CERPINTXT and Stevie R ever since she appeared on his label Inside Out in late 2017.
Kindred spirits with a shared appreciation for the leftfield fringes,
experimentation and deep dark grooves, here they continue their collaborative work on Chapter 24 with the first release from Stevie R's forthcoming album. A new chapter beckons...

'Madilo' ignites the fire, a bright, relentless house affair laced with a dreamy vocal chop and an underslung bassline that bites beneath the surface like a shoal of piranhas. Twisted but restrained and peppered with infectious percussion, it sets the
scene for the Greco-Egyptian collaboration in London perfectly. 'Red Lemon' is a much darker jam that's built around a granular staccato riff that changes in texture and weight as more loopy layers are introduced. The word hypnotic is bandied
around too much these days, but this truly is a mesmerising moment.

Meanwhile in the parallel universe of remixes, Chapter 24 have gone to town, recruiting two significant and influential heavyweights on the revision duties.
Counterchange bossman Ed Davenport returns from his Inland guise for a thumping twist of 'Red Lemon' that's equal parts pneumatic and aquatic, while Man Power breaks down the original groove to its bare-naked acid line and rebuilds it with a
crushing analog hook, off-beat timpani and a host of subtle trippy textures.

Two exceptional originals, two respectful, innovative remixes, one massive album to look forward to. Stevie R is just warming up.

the moment we have waited so long to put this material in physical form has finally come! we honestly dont know much about this guy, but one sure thing is that we been instantly amazed by quality, skills and variety of his music (and quantity too..he filled our pockets with more than 100 unreleased tracks in few days!). not really a common thing. we are really thrilled and excited so to give light and to present this to you. a mixture of styles, visions, messages, speeds, emotions and structures that make his touch and this record an absolute pearl for us. it will be a long and strong relation with this mind we assume!

Three artists discover the wider field of dark electronic dance music. Although young, these producers already have a big understanding of sound. A sound which is past-oriented but every track has a certain twist which makes the music contemporary and timeless.

On A1 – Dein Letztes Hemd – Nicola Toma from Berlin combines acid cuts with German Vocals (by Camila Strasdas) and a pushy bassline. Nothing else needed. Zurich’s Prioleau opens up a totally new world on A2. ‘Never Trust A Mirror’ is an energy driven tune without compromises. A dark new wave-y and kraut influenced masterpiece.

On the b-side are two tracks produced by Hesychia369, a well-known producer from Zurich under a new alias. With ‘Dmbrisded’ and ‘Diffspherez’ he shows his love for acid basslines and fast rhythms.

Tracks by Acidulant, Microlith, Repeat Eater and Jonas Bengio.The Time Capsule project, also known as 808 Box, is a project created by Fundamental Records. The six boxes released in recent years include 56 records with over 300 tracks from artists from every corner of the world. Some warehouse copies have surfaced of the 10th Anniversary 808 Box, and these will be available individually. These are new copies in perfect condition, with the original sleeves printed with the images of the classic Roland TR-808.

A1 on the vinyl record is "Diety" by one of our resident Esther Duijn, with acid atmospheres reminiscent of the raves of the past, A2 is a reinterpretation by one of the pioneers of techno music, Scalameriya, adapting the original vibes in a blend of futuristic sound design and shape-shifting grooves.

On the other side, "Vertigo" by Ayarcana is an industrial anthem with eerie atmospheres and hyper-speed beats that never relent through the track. Vertigo is remixed by our resident L?VSN, who evokes the illusion of calm before diving into a post-apocalyptic lucid dream.

Vol:2.

Acid hard techno inna Hackney style, but not only... something seriously kickin' !!

Izorgor’s sound reflects his burly bouncer name. Drums pound and hi-hats slash in the mean and murderous “HDF-N”, a soundtrack for car crashes and late late club sessions. “Nosferatu” comes from a similarly evil place, percussion is fed through a mincer before a fog of distortion descends to smother samples. If you’re after a respite, you’ll have to wait or feck off home. “HDF-S” wades in. Similar to his sibling in terms of rancorous rhythms, this beast drips with 303 sweat and venom with just a touch of salvation in those soaring notes. Boris Brenicki, of Ontal fame, ends with his own sepulchral take on “Nosferatu.”

For its seventh release, Rave Or Die proudly welcomes Irish superstar Sunil Sharpe. Hailing from Dublin, this producer and DJ has gain within a few years a solid reputation of merciless techno purveyor in Europe with uncompromising re-leases on structures such like On The Hoof, Sheworks, Black Sun Records, Trensmat, Mord, Inner Surface Music, Komisch, Bastardo Electrico, and many more.

Half of the Tinfoil duo along with DeFekt offers to the French Rave label a great slab of bastard-heavy material in his typical signature: hard and fast Loose (Burn Down)' supported by metallic sorities and ruff modulations over a pounding bass line in a pure, raw style.

On the flipside, ROD mastermind Umwelt (Boidae, Shipwrec, New Flesh Records) serves up another milestone of a cabalistic anthem dedicated to industrial ware-houses: mechanic Slave To The Rave' signs an ode to the dancefloor thanks to its implacable and hammering beat. Harder, faster, higher seems to be the motto of Rave Or Die seventh chapter! Rush on it.

Hot on the heels of our tentacular project "The Most Famous Unknown", Planet Phuture is proud to welcome rising French talent Cuften to the fold. A most fitting match for PP's phuture-facing vision, Damien Peltier has been pushing some of the finest techno around over the last couple of years, landing a handful memorable cuts via the likes of Parisian label Tripalium and his own imprint, Purusu. Cloaked in dim-lit atmospheres and open-ended post-apocalyptic narratives, his debut solo 12" blends in all of the elements that made his sound stand out from the crowd of releases coming up these days - traversed by dogged primitive rhythms and reassessed 303-infused Detroit'isms, but also stamped with his signature no-frills rave elegance.

Speeding up the cosmic highway like Deckard roams San Fran's neon-splattered alleys on the hunt for replicants, Cuften takes us on a full-immersion journey into dystopian electronic soundscapes. Full-beam on, "Solar Ashes" has us drifting amidst ruins of a devastated city - its lysergic bass languidly threading its way across brutalist concrete facades and cold ember set for reignition. A more martial affair, "The Black Rain Order" pulls out the rattling drums, slo-boiling arpeggios and moebius-strips of wistful acid to score a supremely tense crescendo, both optimally tasted on and off the dance floor.

Moving up closer to the free-spirited vibe of the '90s open-air raves, "Rise Of The Neo-Humans" unleashes a baroque firestorm of sucker-punchy toms and hyperventilating shuffle, woven against an endlessly expanding corolla of hallucinogenic shapes and fluttering harmonics. Sinking further deep into all-dark dubby grounds, "Lasttt Batttle" extrudes its obsessive melody out a thick gangue of squelchy chords and bleepin' engineering to form the kind of brain-washing hybrid pumper that'll roast your last remaining neurones. Trouble-brewing isn't over though and the droney "Kjhfskjoize" shall take you to places unknown through eleven minutes of envelope-shifting shamanism, thinking noise bake-off and gravity-defying arrangements. Bend your mind.

With no need for further introduction, the legendary Cleveland and now Berlin based producer Dan Curtin lands on Fabio Della Torre's Tuscan label Bosconi with 2 previously unreleased gems from his 90's DAT archive. The release is further enriched by Curtin's very first live rework of one of the tunes. After Releasing on such labels as Headspace, 7th Sign, and Sublime and with the recent repress of his historic Silicon Dawn album on Peacefrog including the supremely modern Population 2, here comes the previously unreleased Population III which moves even more forward into the outer realms of space and time. On the long side the farsighted and futuristic Metamorphic label boss delivers this marvelous continuation of the previous version taking it more into straight forward techno and even further into deep minded synth experimentation and acid bleeping. On the Flip we have a modern live rework of Population III which Dan has been playing around the world in his current live set. The live version goes a bit more into electroid landscapes but still maintains a straight groove for electro and techno purists most playful moments. The third cut is the epic acid banger and previously unreleased Redshift, showing already at those times that Dan Curtin was defying conventions and pushing boundaries and pioneering what we can now consider modern dance music while displaying melting innovation and deeply felt emotional content at the same time.

As the title subtly suggest, this has to be played LOUD! And it the recent days, the title tune (that FX mix) has been played recently by the usual suspects. A classic and strong 12" by Orlando Voorn under his Baruka moniker focusing on twisted funky Detroit Techno sound with his special signature. A colorful release.
First released in 1994 and remastered for the 21st century.

Second part in the Rolando Simmons summer excursions series (you may remember AF019.1, 2018). The swedish is back to Analogical Force in dark days to light the way. Playful modern electronics with enough melody and invention to stimulate your cortex and an almost whistful nostalgic yearning. Hope! fire is burning, flag is flying.
