Techno News

After the great debut of some month ago, Spectral Rebel is ready to return with another massive release, this time signed by a further coming up artist in the techno scene: Manuel Di Martino. Known for his leaning for an old school rugged way of interpret productions and sets, Manuel shows us his acidest side in a one-sided 12inch vinyl, accompanied by the new young revelation of our times, the composer, arranger and pianist Raffaele Attanasio, making this second release, an absolute masterpiece.
'Raw Intentions' isn't only the release title, but the perfect concise description of the entire incision. The original one starts with a simply running nocturnal rhythm hard and chary at the same time but, after a while, give off, almost as a surprise, its real soul, an incessant flooding river of acid stabs, angry bites which rain in a fluctuating progress inducing any individual on the dance floor to deal with an huge sharp wall of sound waves. Raffaele Attanasio put his sign on with an unique and nonpareil version, combining both his distinctive mark of piano artist and his 'raw' soul represented by his alias X501. Almost heard several times in his live sets, this work is recognizable for the mathematically combination of overdrived harsh kicks crossed by acid stabs, all broked suddenly by a melodically solo piano touch which puts you in a short deep dream. Finally 'V3' closes the EP as a digital bonus original track that confirms the acid taste of the release with an hammering pulsing drum kit worthy of the oldest techno tunes.

Sam Silva is proud to present you the new Plector Records issue 003, which has the same ambition than the second one : To strike the dance floor with massive techno beats. This is the first release from a new series called Techno Blend Vol 1. On this LP you can find 9 different kind of techno from down tempo to ( hard ) techno´ Featured the best techno artists from the worldwide Scene´like Woody Mc Bride from Usa , Glenn Wilson from Sweeden , Ben Long from UK, Stephane Signore from Belgium and many others´ This is the perfect weapon for all the Techno lovers´

An ace double-header. Bad-minded, noisy, runaway jack from Mazzarino, Italy; percussive, gritty, stripped stompers from Mike 'Brenda' Davis.

LA-based DJ/producer & co-founder of Plastic Love reveals its shadowy counterpart, the sound of a late night Los Angeles freeway drive. Detroit-based Jared Wilson handles remix duties on the B-side with a touch of acid. Full pic sleeve.

Diagonal return with the debut 12" from Bronze Teeth side-project Green Gums. Edition of 500, initial copies on transparent green wax* Dogged techno licks from Dom Butler & L/F/D/M in Green Gums guise following two searing sessions as Bronze Teeth, also for Diagonal. Where their previous pair of 12"s tended to effluent, extended jams, these are just as mucky but more concise. Uptown, they launch the jagged EBM affray of 'Zozomono' with coarse acid lines yoked to slamming kicks, while 'Dag' marches out like some mutant, blunted offspring of Ancient Methods and Powell. Downtown, they really come into their own with the coiled shuffle and strangely spacious, gutted mix-down of EP highlight, 'Cestoda's Labyrinth', before tilting slow and low with the tripping acid of 'Tap Dancing Goat Man'. RIYL Factory Floor, Powell, Ancient Methods...

This EP is only for ravers who needs to revive this special warehouse feeling.



A-Side is totally oldschool acid with a first solid acidish track immediately followed by a pure acidcore banger that will unleash full energy once spinned. Third track is more like an intro/dj tools with that sound sampled from real industrial machines.

B-Side starts things off with another life, a splendid another dimension track that combine synthetic melodies with a subtle acid touch. The two other tracks are more psychedelics with crazy rhythms and hypnotic melodies. Ideal for 707 lovers.

At Barba we are old wise men, not so easily excited. But nothing gets our old fisherman joints up and moving like three tracks of pure strong machine groove. In part 2 of the Laffer EP Marco Bernardi is going head down, straight ahead and striving for energy. Attack of the Dessert Stormers is an overload of dark electro power, six minutes of squirming bassline-driven movement with surges of intensity from analogue bleeps and subtle drum pattern shifts. There's no let up on the flip side where Two Sliders brings equal force but in a more techno style. Right from the start you'll be grabbed by the bassline, but this one rewards extended listening as the track develops progressively with new melodies and metallic touches taking you deeper and deeper. There's a moment of sweetness to end our journey with ''There's always tomorrow'', a chiming melodic ramble through tinfoil meadows that will fit beautifully into a warmup set. Please don't sleep on this record - it's not often you see so much power and so much subtlety in the same package!

Hello true believer. Our search for intelligent individuals continues. To find them we have devised a test. There are clues hidden inside the image, music, and vinyl. Find it, and it will lead you on the road to finding our message. We look forward to meeting the few that will make it all the way through.
Good luck.

VENT loves raw and unpretentious techno. The second love dose comes from no other than Miss Sunshine, who has distilled her intimate knowledge of techno dance floors worldwide for us into two driving tracks - one of which is remixed by Zadig. In this instalment, Miss Sunshine plays with the dichotomy between the feelings of entrapment and revelation, and does so in the language that VENT prefers to communicate with: no-nonsense, stripped down techno.

'Trapped' is filled to the brim, curled tightly into position ready to burst with kinetic energy. Like a compressed spring, it waits to be released and yield to its essence, free of containment.

'Revealed' on the other hand is an amalgamation between relaxedness and vital energy, as its cool pads contrast with the tireless percussive rhythm. To reveal does not mean that it shows, it means that it lets one see.

Zadig's remix takes 'Trapped' to another place, high and deep at the same time, where he binds the listener to the state that only techno can bring to mind and body. Some call it Detroit, some call it transdimensional beingness.

Come with us and enjoy a stay in the quantum state between trapped and revealed.

Incolor is a collage of distinctive sounds, purposed to disturb the listener's reality, smearing paradoxical stances throughout the entire record. TRCKV01 approach differs from normality. The beginning of each side taints mystery and a relaxed state while the following smears vigor to the record. On the A-side, Greorogythme casts minimalistic glitches onto the cosmic Watch The Stars Falling, while Scopter & iON bring an excess of drums and dub, enfolding in a persisting voice that forms Muntele De La Mare. On the B-side, Key Clef builds an ever-growing tension on disrupted tempos, over persisting wobbles, all which finalize in Keep The Deep. Finally, Dual Shaman lash out on the closing track, with a hard to digest overload of kicks, drums all wrapped in a hard to digest CroMagnon. The record is as complex in sound as colors on a canvas painting, going in depth, exploring unheard mixtures and combinations. Heard entirely, it paints a perfect colored picture.

The second release on benji303's 303 alliance label, this release is dedicated in loving memory of Josh Jones aka Josh Inc.; a true acid techno warrior who's memory will live on forever through his brilliant music r.i.p mate.

As a kid growing up in the state's tucked-away capital of Springfield, Justin Cudmore played the drums at home and in school as a jazz percussionist. In his college days Justin dove into electronic music, workshopping new-wave influenced beats in bands and DJing parties. Currently, Justin is a fixture across Brooklyn, popping up on dance floors and behind booths. 2015 saw his track, "Feeling,' released on the Denver-based label Deep Club. Crystal' is Cudmore's debut 12' single. Raw, rough and ready to rumble, Crystal' marries snaking acid lines and bouncy grooves to a sample from cult underground film classic 'The Queen'. On the flip is Detroit-bred and Bunker resident DJ Mike Servito's 730 Reshape', that gives the wiggly worm vibe harkening back to the early days of Transmat, Warp and the minimalism of Dan Bell's DBX project. L.I.E.S. mainstay Gunnar Haslam provides his Dekalb Avenue Remix' made while living in New York, a modular synth cruise with the top down. All tracks have been mastered and EQed for vinyl by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley and labels are as pink as Crystal's lipstick.

The next release on Diagonal comes from Streetwalker, the duo of Beau Wanzer and Elon Katz.
Titled Ooze, it's a shadowy, mechanistic dancefloor crusher, originally released as a limited
cassette single on the Catholic Tapes label in 2011. The 12' release for Diagonal is the first time this
sinister creature has been pressed to vinyl, now also accompanied by a remix from Silent Servant.
Following on from recent Diagonal album releases from Death Comet Crew and Russell Haswell, the Ooze 12' marks Streetwalker's first release since 2013's Future Fusion, their acclaimed, mind bending debut album of acid jams and scorched post-punk, released through the Minimal Wave-affiliated Cititrax label. Outside of Streetwalker, both members of the duo are known for their thrillingly brusque, exploratory transmissions: Katz is the mind behind White Car, while Wanzer has released music through Ron Morelli's L.I.E.S, both solo and with Mutant Beat Dance.Recorded, processed and overdubbed using an arsenal of hardware, including a rare E-mu modularsystem and a home-built light-sensitive synthesiser, it builds across twelve minutes from woody drums and spooked whispers into a disorienting, writhing mass of snakelike acid lines and corrosive noise. For his Silent Servant remix, Juan Mendez keep the atmosphere of the original intact — all grubby, soot-caked textures and a flat thud of a four-four rhythm — but sets it amid delicate drifts of melody, finding brief flashes of warmth amid the shade.

Limited White Vinyl Pressing!
For the third release on De:tuned we proudly present The Kosmik Kommando AKA Mike Dred. Mike hardly needs an introduction; considered as one of the masters of the Roland TB-303 Mike has been releasing records under various aliases since the early 90s. He has recorded for high profile labels such as R&S and Rephlex as well as his own Machine Codes label. Together, with Aphex Twin, Mike was behind the Universal Indicator releases which are among the most collectible and sought after records in techno history.

De:tuned has worked closely with Mike to develop an 8 track project that gives props to the American Psychologist Timothy Leary and his proposed theory of 'The Eight-Circuit Model of Consciousness'. This model describes 8 circuits of information that operate within the human nervous system. Each circuit refers to a different sphere of activity, enhanced by experimentation with a particular substance. Each circuit also represents a higher stage of evolution than the one before it and the higher the circuit, the fewer the people have activated it as the higher four circuits exist for those who migrate to outer space and live extraterrestrially.

The 8 Models are applied to the track titles that present a varied collection integrating acid house, techno, electro and rave culture.

3 of the tracks on offer here were written exclusively for Mike's live performance at the De:tuned 'Meeting of Minds' event in June 2012, which was Mike's first full live show in 3 years.

This 8 track project will be available on limited 180 gr white double vinyl with label and sleeve artwork by Mike himself. Stay Tuned!

The acid Arabic wind has not finished blowing. After the warm welcome of our 'Collections' EP01, Versatile proudly present four new tracks for eclectic and demanding dance rooms. Once again, Guido & Hervé from Acid Arab deliver one track and have asked producers from all over the world to contribute to the project. As you can see, some of the best musicians of our era have answered positively.Legowelt (Netherlands) has always stayed out of all fashion and buzz, his fanatic audience follows every release and gig for a better understanding of his speech. Here he gives his own vision of an acid trip in company of Bedouins during a secret rave in Sinaï desert.Headcore is one of many aliases of French touch wizard Dj Grégory. '21' is a powerful dj-tool that will turn the Africanism aficionados totally crazy. A must-have for your 128 bpm mixes, five minutes of pure energy featuring beats, darbuka, a bit of oud, and some great organ.The Habibeats' 'Rum' is a jam between Professor Genius (L.I.E.S, New York), Dj Gilb'r (Versatile, Paris), Acid Arab and a secret-weapon guest: Shadi Khries, massive percussionist from Jordan, also featured on vocals here. This ain't a dance oriented song but its rhythm may haunt for a while. This ain't a chill piece but its deep vibe will rest your soul. Rum is the name of the Jordan desert, the lyrics come from a poem a couple of thousand years old.'Sidi Gouja' is Acid Arab's awaited new track since 'Theme'. You will recognise the signature in the devastating beats, once again inspired from complex Arabic rhythms, the harmful synths that regularly shake the song and the use of old Roland devices that look right into the eye of the acid house history. The song celebrates Slim Gouja (Sidi meaning Mister), a fascinating professor of musicology that the duet met in Tunisia last summer.

Alden Tyrell hooked up with Mike Dunn for some new work!. A golden combination which already worked out great as we learned from the heavy remix Tyrell did for the Murphy Jax & Mike Dunn collaboration (Its The Music - Cat# CJFD06). Tyrell always jamming and playing around with his synths had some tracks inspired by early Mike Dunn songs. So the obvious happened... the hooked up for some appropiate vocals and here it is....''Touch The Sky''! A peak time acid monster with Mike's vocal chant in the style of his classic MD3 projects. Gerd is on remix duty here and delivers a killer remix with a more traditional Chicago groove and build up. Clone head honcho Serge had some studio time with Tyrell for a dub mix. The Serge & Tyrell dub mix turned out a bit wild and became a classic piece of piano and dx bass driven Chicago house music with stuttering vocal samples and a acidic synth line. Another strong Clone Jack For Daze!!

Brotherhood Sagats and Ludovic, together with Steve Murphy & Dj Octopus, are another duo coming from the Venetian school of the now Berlin based Lucretio & Marieu aka The Analogue Cops.
Their sound reflects the typical approach where drum machines, synthesizers and samplers are recorded directly on tape without being digitalised.
Handmoon EP encloses five fine raw cuts, four pressed onto vinyl and a bonus track which is available though Hardmoon London Bandcamp only.
