Originally released back in 2014, Deep Blue was the first double 12" of Argentinean veteran Leonel Castillo. The release holds 5 dubby and techy tracks that were included in many classics mixes over the last decade. Immersive and excellently crafted music that probably grabbed your attention while listening to some sets of Ricardo Villalobos and Raresh at Fabric and other special spots around the globe. 15th Anniversary - Clear vinyl collectors edition.

The wait is over, Mojuba is very proud to present the sixth episode by Jouem called Resonance On The Edge in his long running Episodes series. This release adds three new offerings to the story, each reflecting further facets to the unique Jouem sound. Ranging from moody delay and reverb drenched immersive driving rhythms of opener Ancient Ruins via the shimmering laidbackness of ‚Tauran’ to the epic string-ladden closing of the 12“ called Long Bright Dark. All in all a much needed new piece to join the musical and visual puzzle to continue this remarkable journey by Sven Weisemann under his Jouem moniker. Listen, dance, love and enjoy!

Bengoa's B2 Recordings returns with its third release this June, this time the inaugural release from newcomer Zaq, entitled 'Magic Silver' and backed with a remix from the label-head himself. B2 Recordings : ''Zaq is an analogue machine expert and upcoming bright new talent in the scene. Collecting analogue gear from the age of 15, Zaq's output has influences from dub to italo, early 80s and 90s drum machines, ambient, reggae and acid house - his debut on B2 recordings is a personal statement and the start of many great things that are about to follow from the young artist.'' 'Body Waves' leads on the release, a tripped out dub infused cut drive by evolving ethereal atmospheres, echoing synth stabs and off-kilter drums. Following is 'Take Heed' which embraces a more tool like approach via bumpy beats and circling dub to keep things moving. On the flip, the original mix of 'Magic Silver' is up first, showcasing the acid house influences of the artist, blending together squelchy 303 licks with dub stab sequences and 808 drums. Bengoa's Club Reshape of Magic silver then rounds out the package and tips things into peak-time realms, fusing the original with a dynamic 909 drum workout and enchanting spoken word vocals.

Listen Feel & Dance...

New vinyl only label out of London. Leaning
towards Dub & Experimental electronic music.
Debut release comes from Montreal based,
Archipel & Climat label boss, Pheek.

Rewire continues with his fine minimalism style with a new superb release by the Spanish talent Medu.
Medu's growth so far has been impressive and in this release has maintained his unique relentless,
hypnotic, techno groove but in a different way.
Besides releases on his own labels Tip Tap Records and Rewire, his music has been released on Dissonant,
CMYK, Inmotion and Metroline amongst others.
The A side, 'Natarash', is a ten minute techno experimentation that rattles, twists, shakes and rises with
elegance.
This track is perfect to get tripped at some after-hours early hours, with clever use of dark pads, hypnotic
ambience, organic textures and off beat piano keys.
On the B side the French producer Doubtingthomas (who we got to know for releases on influential labels
such as Eastenders or Amam) takes Natarash to different territories adding plenty of funk and groove. His
remix is a super funky and infectious minimal bomb, getting a pure rhythm behind of the original textures and
vibes!
The closing track (B2 side), 'Dios del Rio', is a trippy and groovy sound. Super clever drum programming
and vocal hooks are the main elements of the track, while a huge sub bass and bright hats lead the song!
Two exceptional originals, one perfectly executed remix. Medu, Doubtingthomas and Rewire Musik have
delivered something really special right here...

Back in 2014, Sushitech Records persuaded UK techno veteran to release his first Wise Caucasian record in 16 years.

Victor Kiktenko aka Module One's EP for Anna Wall's imprint The Bricks is inspired by the disciplines of Detroit. A sound shaped by luminaries like Mike Huckaby, Rick Wade and Kyle Hall, Victor has spent the last nine years refining his own unique approach to this style of house music.

Residing in the industrial city of Novocherkassk in the South of Russia, it wasn't until the summer of 2018 that he relocated to Berlin - and it was a liberating decision. 'With the growing power of the Police structures, the parties and festivals were often shut down the last minute which gave absolutely no way to plan our careers and I remember having up to 4 jobs at the same time to survive. Russia is a pretty poor country...the majority of people working extra hard and having several jobs. Berlin wasn't only an inspiration, but also a very logical and pragmatic move.' 'The One I Believe' was made during his time at home as he awaited the German visa process.

The four track EP displays the various forms of Module One's production; from the dub-techno sounds of 'Morning Dub' to playful electro kicks on 'Liquid Forms'. Chicago's Tyree Cooper has given 'The One I Believe' a classic rework adding his trademark drum machines and a subtle 303 acid line that compliments the original.

Early Support:

Jus-Ed - 'Dope EP! I will be playing this...and Tyree Cooper killed it!' 5/5

Laurent Garnier - 'Lovely release - will play' 4/5

Jacques Renault - 'Excellent dreamy EP all around, OGs and killer drum workout from Tyree...' 4/5

Danse Club Records is back with a new limited series of Records
including some Vinyl Only Tracks and Mixes.

Fresh from the release of their third album ‘Autonomy’ earlier this summer, comes Autonomy Variations: four brand new perspectives from four exciting, innovative kindred spirits of the avant-pop duo.

South London’s Medlar breaks the seal. Following a series of incredible live collaborations with Dele Sosimi (Fela Kuti), he’s has turned ‘Autonomy’ into a minimal, percolating house track. Swapping the acid spikes for analog bleeps, Medlar’s signature can be felt every step through this vivid energetic stomper.

Fabric resident Anna Wall follows with another beautiful subversion as ‘New Politik’ is given a smouldering take. Moody, intimate, downtempo; there’s some serious late night HTRK-esque vibes to Anna’s twist.

Further into the remix trip we glide to find Dischi Autunno, Ombra International affiliate Curses pulling ‘Electric Light’ into the fringes. Taking the upbeat, crystalline pop of Penelope and Stephen’s original and flipping it into a stark postpunk Bauhaus-inspired take, Curses’ live bass and driving new wave beat shine a whole new light on the original and write it a whole new chapter.

Finally, brand new act, Isolating have the honour of closing the EP with industrial modular apocalyptic take on ‘Infinity’. A vast playground of contrasts, at points it’s dirty and pounding. At others it’s quiet and menacing. File under ‘Dystopian Techno.’

Four extensions on one of the most interesting electronic albums released this year, if you haven’t treated yourself to ‘Autonomy’ yet, you’d be wise to. DJ Mag stated it’s The Golden Filter’s best work yet while Clash called a it a bruising return. These remixes follow with complete forward-thinking consistency. Enjoy…

After launching with Jaxe’s acid bomb Seekings earlier this
year, Dom Trojga is back with a bang (and five smiles). Uniting
artists from Ukraine and Poland, and ditching genre
considerations in favour of a shared wavelength, Domownicy
Różnoracy Cz.1 is all about further revelation of the imprint’s
purpose. First up is synth enchantress Poly Chain with the
storming ostinato of Moonhaze (first track ever signed to the
label, but not her last, by any means), followed by the beaming
legend SLG and his soother-shaker Hello Utopia. On the B-side
Jaxe strikes back, teaming up with the uncanny Bejenec
(CHECK OUT HIS LIVE SHOW, FOR REAL), for a hefty slab of
tekno-funk that is Seamless. Finally, label founder Eltron
rounds things up with his own quirky Rym Cymcym. The
beautiful label art has been drawn by the inimitable Martyna
Bolanowska. Playing this record is good for you, so don’t
hesitate.

On the 2nd release of our limited vinyl series, Etui founder Insect O. shows a more diversified musical work. The sound ranges from break beat-electronica to rough and deep techno. Whilst you are standing on top of Victoria Peak in Hong Kong and looking down to the City, you see majestic birds flying around the massive skyscrapers. In this moment you can feel the harmony between the stressful city and the nature surroundings. This feeling was the inspiration for Insect O.´s 'Birds over Hong Kong'. Once again he spreads his love for deep techno with spacey chords and driven beats. Marko Furstenberg made a more Detroit techno inspired remix of the track. He is well-known for his releases on Ornaments or Rotary Cocktail.
'Rusty' is like your 17 years old car with which you drive every weekend to some dark techno parties in dirty underground locations. With its straight beat and spacey organ sounds the track tells you all about rough techno. In 'Echoes of Antarctica' ice cold chords combined with a yearningly pad are flying over broken beats. It is an adventure to one of the coldest place on earth and shows a more experimental side of Insect O.'s work.

20 years since the original release on Richie Hawtin's M_nus imprint, Exalt Records reissue the minimal classic - Swayzak vs. Theorem 'Break In At Apartment 205' 12'.

The two main tracks from the original release have been remastered by Paul Mac and come on either clear or black vinyl with artwork by Grid Pattern.

HIKE: Cristal clear lakes, impressive mountains, soothing forests and Berlin techno music The Hike 007 Vinyl comes from SCHMUTZ, rooted in Belfast. Belfast is Northern Ireland's capital. It was the birthplace of the RMS Titanic, which famously struck an iceberg and sunk in 1912. This time we present you the Divis Ridge Trail. The Divis Ridge Trail is an approximately four-mile walk from the Long Barn to the Black Mountain and the Mournes. The route overlooks Belfast, with a 180-degree view of the city on one side, and of the Mournes on the southern side. Spot birds of prey, like peregrine falcons, along the way.

With 4 releases under their belt and more to follow, it clearly shows the alliance between Hunter/Game and the Icelandic band Kura, can do no wrong. Their band, Landside, is now primed to get an accompanying remix EP following up from 'Signs of Change' and 'Desert Lake'.
Drawing their inspiration from a cumulation of music that inspires them, they call up a diverse selection of artists to the task, which present an astonishingly coherent vision. From the stormy modulated chords of Robert Hood and trickling pads crafted by Etapp Kyle, to the dystopian narratives expressed by Bambounou and Edanticonf, the re-visionings provide additional star-power to what is already a fine, shimmering series.

As our fifth elixir finally manifests, Fjader guides us through the misty ocean of the mind to find bliss of rainbow light.

Early support from Deepbass, Svreca, Antonio de Angelis, Arnaud le Texier, Stephanie Sykes, The Noisemaker, Vilix, Nihad Tule, Iori, Rasmus Hedlund, ASC, Periskop, Shaded Explorer, Antonio Vazquez, BLNDR, Jana Sleep and Luigi Tozzi to name a few.

Subaquatic modular vibes. Vibrant Colors, peaceful textures. The feeling of swimming underwater, standing on
top of a mountain.
