Dax J - Illusion Of Power

Illusions of Power is about political corruption, the collapse and seizure of control, sparring nations, war, drugs, gangs and the fraudulent, media systems that spin it all into rolling, fear-mongering 24 hour loops. Illusions of Power is about the horrors of the modern world and a humanity haunted by its bloodied past. But as every long dark tunnel comes to an end, Illusions of Power too has its glimmers of hope.

Written with an arsenal of hardware gear from the Londoner's studio in Berlin, Dax J's Electric Deluxe debut is a militant, yet atmospherical dancefloor assault. As he has proven over a slew of EPs for EarToGround Records and labels like LDNWHT, Deeply Rooted, Clergy and his own Monnom Black label, his sound is a compelling and thoroughly contemporary one. Dax J's productions are typically mercurial, informed by the past and fortified with a wide range of influences from acid and ambient, to jungle and drum & bass. His EPs are rich, kaleidoscopic ventures involving an array of tempos and moods, and Illusions of Power is no different.

In 'Reign Of Terror' and 'Harry The Hatchet' on the A-side, and 'Zulu Nation' and 'The Quest' on the flip, Dax J flexes sinewy techno muscle in his rave-inciting idiom where the new and the oldschool collide. Then in the angst-ridden 'Cartagena Square' (built around field recordings from Cartagena in South America) and dreamy breakbeats of 'Breaking Visions' Illusions of Power present two very different diversions from the dance. In one there is light and a sense of relief; in the other, shadowy omens of the world are massing. The future is full of promise, but be on your guard.

I-robots Present: Gene Hunt - Gene Vs Gene Part. I

I-Robotspresent:Gene Hunt

Gene Vs Gene Part. I

12inchOPCM12073.1
Opilec Music
15.05.2015

Record Store Day 2015 will see a special release from Gene Hunt directed and selected by label boss I-Robots.

The two track vinyl EP features unreleased material produced in the early years of the famed Chicago artist's career in the 80s and is dedicated to musical legend Frankie Knuckles who appears on the artwork in a rare picture with Gene Hunt from back in the day.

Gene has regularly produced and remixed for the label before now (including remixing Klein & M.B.O. 'Last Call' and on forthcoming I-Robots project 'Dirty Talk' ft. Donna McGhee) and has already assured his place in house history as a DJ headlining clubs like Warehouse and the Music Box as well as playing with the likes of Ron Hardy and Larry Heard.

As a producer he has been on top of his game for three decades and has released on legendary imprints such Rush Hour, Svek, Djax and many more, so is a true house icon.

His first cut here, 'Drive Yourself Nuts' is a classic bit of Chicago jack with prickly percussive patterns staying busy on top of punchy drums. Wonky bass, physical grooves and coarse claps all make this one a standout banger for the peak of the night.

On the flip of this special package, 'Wildside D Dubb' is a slow building, mania inducing tune with a lead synth line slithering about over dusty metallic drums. Eventually some acid bleeds into the mix and pans all around, adding a sense of scale to this heady, freaky, dance floor smasher. As ever, Opilec Music show others how it is done with this real and rare bit of true Chicago house history.

Sebastian Mullaert & Patrick Siech - Genome I

Inspired in equal measure by analog synthesizer technology and the lush Swedish countryside, Genome marks the first collaboration between veteran techno producers Patrick Siech and Minilogue's Sebastian Mullaert, with part one of the three-EP series appearing on Richie Hawtin's Minus label. Recorded live to tape last spring, the four tracks that comprise Genome 1 make for a transformative dancefloor experience that morphs and swoops its way through soulful, sweaty analog techno with flourishes of 303-style acid. Mullaert and Siech met in their hometown of Malmö, Sweden, back in 2000, when Mullaert was premiering his Minilogue project live with partner Marcus Henriksson. Siech opened that show with his very first public DJ set. The pair kept in touch over the years in the small but tightknit scene, and when it came time for Mullaert to set up his new studio in the small forest village of Röstånga, an hour outside of the city, he enlisted Siech's help, which led to a week of intense experimentation and lengthy analog-synth jams. 'That was the real door opener for us,' says Mullaert. 'We didn't have any concept or vision in mind for it, other than having fun together.' Central to the Genome series is Siech's modular synth, which he reassembled in Mullaert's studio for the recording. 'I credit all my tracks partly to the ghost that lives in this machine,' says Siech. 'I can't imagine making music without it. There are so many variables in it that create strange voltage fluctuations, so you can never be 100% sure what it will throw at you from the speakers.

Now a regular member of the Figure roster, young portugese talent Lewis Fautzi resurfaces again, fresh off the back of an inspired full-length debut for Soma Records. Continuing with his own take on the darker, trippier end of the Techno spectrum, we are treated to 4 new tracks, beautifully sequenced and alive with energy. From the depths of Fautzis studio, >Signal Of The Light< emerges with its deep resonant acid tones and broken beats. Setting the mood, Fautzi then unlocks the monster inside with three club-designed cuts that rattle, fizz, gyrate and swell with precision intensity. A name to keep an eye on without a doubt, its no surprise this young mans vision of modern Techno is finding its way into DJs sets far and wide.

Delft 002 welcomes another new name to the fold: it's been four long years since the last officially released original JPLS material but the wait was worth it, with the producer making his Delft debut with 'Fall Off Distance', an acid techno nuclear weapon that's been causing panic when dropped on isolated testing sites thus far. Label boss LA-4A subtly reshapes the original into a more streamlined techno monument on the B1, while longtime JPLS fans will be pleased to discover the producer at his weird & sinister best with the B2, 'Remove'.

Phonautograph represents an artist album in its purest sense: a deeply personal work that feels like the culmination of a lifetime of passion and experience - one that ebbs and flows across a variety of styles and tempos, from the electrifying acid house and electro of 'Resistor', 'Capacitance' and 'Dialup' to slower tempo ambient and experimental excursions such as 'Frequenzvariabler', 'Blitzlicht' and 'Semantron'.

Khan - I Don't Wanna Say Anything 2x12"

Back in 1996 the beloved and still active electronic music producer KHAN released his very debut album on the EMI-offspring Harvest, once home to legendary bands like Pink Floyd or Air Liquide, which crossed borders between psychedelic, well-hypnotic Armchair / Intelligent Techno, thrilling Electro, early Minimal- and DubTechno as well as tripping Acid.

Very few original pressings of this pioneering album have now been rediscovered in a lost box sitting in a dusty Berlin storage space and are now available again, 18 years after the albums initial release. A true contemporary document proving that quality electronic music never grows old and is able to stand the test of time.

Emanuele Rizzuto - Hand Made Illusions

* This EP is a first naif, unskilled attempt at music production and knobs manipulation. A short but intense trip inside and outside cognitive processes, conceptual structures and external sensations, seamlessly, deprived of any defined border.

* A vague ranting uttered by a lone individual who can finally relinquish social impositions and reinstating himself into the cosmos, as he beholds his mental actives beginning and ending, like his very own being. There's no grace, no mastery in this, just a long and liberating dance, sometimes calm and sleepy, sometimes wild and violent. "Zero Zero Due" is kinda self-explanatory: it indicates the narrow and anxious unraveling of our mental work, constantly correcting itself in order to reach for the definitive Truth, so unreachable, or maybe just so unreal, as nothing in an ever-changing world is unreachable, nor definitive. "Monotron" is an euphoric outburst echoed through pounding space rains and metallic sounds, brought together in a muscular syncope, marking the freedom of our true animal nature, not enclosed in an oppressive cage anymore.

Holger #10 introduces yet another new face to the ever growing label crew: Chino has been one of the most busy live performers in Poland for the last decade - playing all-hardware sets in clubs and at festivals on a weekly basis. His »HISS« EP is a true Acid treasure and Holger's most decisive step into proper club territory. »Worker« and »Paper Rider« are two bass-heavy dancefloor belters, with strong kickdrums and synapse-tickling 303 lines. The flipside shows two more of Chino's many facets: While »31.08.« is a slow-burning Dubtechno hypnosis, »Shifter« closes the EP with moody Electro. Mastered by Ruud Lekx, also known as the legend that is Rude 66.

Claus Bachor - Deep Down Inside Mixes

dmm vinyl only

Rolling out the circuits between hot sizzeling Hi-Tech Funk, slamming Dub-Tech/Half-Step and subdued four/four Techno/Acid, label head Claus Bachor keeps you guessing with the original demo track and four huge remixes by Terrence Dixon, Elec Pt.1, Lockertmatik / Kryptic Universe of scratched surfaces, deep determination, kicks, clangs, cuts, medieval water torture and exquisite elocution. There's a calming force tapping out from Cologne's Psycho Thrill BNKR underground Techno faucet, and "Deep Down Inside" is a crowning example. The first vinyls of this final fished copy series (ltd. 300) went into hand-out during the past "Movement" dayz in Detroit via Detroit Threads and Submerge (Local3000 UR). There will be no repress!
- - - - - - - - - - -

A1 Psycho Thrill recordings label boss Claus Bachor turns out a DubTechno/Half-Step hybrid that roars like wildfire. The flavor on the "DeepDownInside" original mix is a combination of initial cutting edged breaks and 4/4beats for Dub-Techno bobbers that turn into sheer bangin Techno on par with the rest of the remix work here, consisting of pummeling 4/4-floor and rudimentary builds that end with all the pots maxed out.

A2 Like a magician's forest at nightfall, Terrence Dixon's "Detroit After Dark" work-out scores the future fairy tale with the beautiful sorcery and strange spells of the minimal techno quest. So this remix comes as a kinked-up tickler, that gets linked to experimental motor city atmospherics in a serious Population One vein, and the result is - not more or less - an abstract perfection of so called late nite electronic body music.

A3 This remix by Dresden's Techno Bass master Stephan Schindler aka Kryptic Universe (also know as Lockertmatik/ The Isolator) in a typical classic 90s Techno rooted, Acid style as its finest that turns every nitedrive perfectly into a wonderfully twisted night out.

B1 Elec Pt.1's (Andreas Gehm / The Manager _ R.I.P. brother!) remix is a fuming and slamming renovation as well. Gehm takes "DeepDownInside" to another level with his belting, "fucks-u-deeper" climax that provides finally gushing 303-good times. Don't sleep on this, this re-work makes no prisoners.

B2 Dresden's Hi-Tech Funk protagonist Stephan Schindler (Kryptic Universe/ The Isolator/ Lockertmatik) does it again here seriously with his "KUX351" interpretation in an acidic mesmerizing and UR rooted, classic Hi-Tech Funk/Techno Bass style that get's even stronger with its athletic exhibition of perpetual electro-motion and should keep every audience interested.

Dr. Motte Meets Gabriel Le Mar - Fever (ltd 180gramm Colored Vinyl & Hologram Label Sticker)

*** Limited Colored Vinyl & Hologram Label Sticker ***
Everyone knows of course that the main driving force behind the label PRAXXIZ is one of Germanys earliest Techno supporters, innovators and ultimately icons Dr. Motte. Maybe fewer are aware of his love of and involvement with the various genres of Electronic Listening Music/Ambient Electronica. Dr. Motte was after all one of the founders of the Interference Festival, arguably one of the greatest gatherings of Electronic Musicians & DJ's to have occurred back then (mid 90's), and to be honest since then.

So it will come as no surprise that the newest release on Dr. Motte's PRAXXIZ, a collaboration between himself and Electronica guru Gabriel Le Mar expertly brings together elements of both ends of the Techno/Electronica spectrum, lovingly creating a fusion that may well be the strongest release yet on PRAXXIZ.

Fever sets the pole high, with a combination of sounds and programmed patterns that display both a sensitivity and an awareness of musical structure that enable clear crisp sparse rhythms to carry a sense of purpose & direction without meandering or resorting to less refined strategies. There is even a very tasty and beautifully placed break beat in there which captures exactly the vibe of that big sound of yesteryear, whilst achieving a here and now vibe from the track overall.

Tresor92 grooves along in an insistent Techno way, but again does not fall into the 'old fashioned' or 'heard that already' pitfalls so many of the thousands of new releases each month seem to willingly dive head first into, for all they are worth. The track builds from its initial strange opening melody that could be some kind of mutated grandfather clock. Slowly and surely, it sneaks up on the listener, evolving as it does into a hard and driving enough piano type chord driven groove. Again as in 'Fever', what makes the track so much more than just another well programmed Techno tune that if we are honest we heard already 1000 times, are the subtle polyrhythms, flourishes and various shades of musical awareness that create a constant feeling of change in the track.

Acidspray again scores top marks as it chugs out a heavy slow burner funked up rhythm, topped with subtle and always engaging Electronica style melodies and nuances. Add to that a refrain that sounds almost like a rave signal, but retains enough originality not to be pigeon holed, and a deep down in the mix twisting turning voice of sorts that further adds to the overall feeling of a funk groove that's friendly, but mildly menacing, and you have three out of three top tunes so far on this latest release from PRAXXIZ.

Zikade could have been a throwaway given the quality so far on this release, but instead it chooses to strive for the gold position. A very fine bringing together of dub, after hours groove, strings and funky house style bass lines. it builds from the first to the last note in a way that is neither overbearing nor ineffective or boring. Motte and Gabriel get it spot on. All the right bits in exactly the right places, perfectly timed for maximum effect. And a perfect way to bring this outstanding EP to a close. A very very fine release in deed, maybe their best yet, if the 'Fever EP' gives a hint of where the artists are heading, bring it on!

D-Jack & Menaz participated in the creation of some of the tracks.

Analog Devices / Analog Baby has been creating music for over two decades. It began in the late 80's when he swapped his electric guitar for a TB303 and TR606. Together with Modular II and André Stordeur he started to push forward the idea of playing modular live-acts at Techno and Experimental Acid parties in Brussels venues like the infamous PK studio, Bulten, Fuse and Caves de la Chapelle.

Analog Devices was involved in the creation of Subground Technology and its events at the PK Studio, the first big events for Acid and electronica in Belgium. A lot of big guns actually played in this underground hangar, Jeff Mills, Luke Slater, Robert Hood, Mike Dred, Random XS, Steve Bicknell, Ben Long, Bandulu and many more

After a forced break, he rebuilt his studio and 2008 saw the arrival of a new vinyl Analogdevices003 ... on white label .... Which is now rated as a collector Item.

Currently he is organizing alongside with his artistic circle and friends, the WCIA parties which are reviving the feel for the good old days. Outlander, Kosmik Kommando, Ege Bamyasi, Gasmask and many other great names are regularly playing there.

This May will see the return of Spanish composer and Seeking the Velvet Creative Director Cora Novoa for her forthcoming EP In Your Mind': a release that seeks to explore the deepest reaches of our minds through overwhelming sounds of a clearly acid and hypnotic nature, and featuring collaborations from French composer Maelstrom (Bromance/Zone), Dreems (Multi-Culti), artists Rubenimichi and audiovisual production company DG Studio.

Following her acclaimed last album Fight Love Faith' that marked a new direction in her artistic career, Cora Novoa unveils her darkest side with this new EP released under her very own SKTV label, an ambitious multidisciplinary project based in Barcelona.

In Your Mind' includes remixes from Maelstrom, who showcases his analogic sound landscapes composed of long improvisations and his signature techno, and from Dreems, an artist from Canadian record label Multi-Culti, who reinterprets the track Consciousness' until achieving a sublime balance of sonic exoticism inspired by African and Tropical music. A perfect work of sampling' made of the most minimalist sounds released by Multi-Culti label.

The cover features an original artwork signed by Spanish art collective Rubenimichi who, in consonance with Cora Novoa's aesthetic influences, play with symbolim and mystery elements to recreate a cosmic language that ultimately defines them. With ocultism, secrecy, darkness and magic as fundamental references of their work, they appear in perfect tune with this release.

Following their highly acclaimed video clip of Soag' for Bpitch Control's artist Phon.o and their Tw33tz' for 50Weapons, the audiovisual production Company DG Recreation has produced the accompanying video clip for the central track In Your Mind', featuring an oneiric visual narrative as their reinterpretation of this song.

All in all, In Your Mind' is a solid work that will lead us to Cora Novoa's techno sounds followed by a wink to her latest African music influence: call it eclectic if you wish, but you might as well miss the point, since this artist has always strived to be nothing but herself, beyond labels and styles, in her own rich and unpredictable artistic explorations.

Marco Bailey - Nyctophilia  Inc. Emmanuel Remix

Nyctophilia is considered to be the love of darkness. Most people find pure relaxation and comfort in the darkness as they feel more free than ever. Free of acting, doing, saying, feeling, being. Dark applies to ultimate freedom and what better can support freedom than techno Marco Bailey knows that and he strikes back on his MBR Limited imprint with his new production ''Nyctophilia'', coming up with a remix by the one and only Emmanuel. It's beautiful deep in the night, especially when we have good music by our side. Because, without the darkness, how could we see the light
