From Bremen, northern Germany, Massud Matin is coming up on Tupiar Records Limited with a great vinyl EP named LIKE YOU, featuring 2 of his own original tracks and 2 remixes from his analog addicts: Modebaku and Kaitaro.

Massud has a deep history going back to his days in the electronic community since 2007, as part of I.C.Records , respectively. even so,he pushes beyond his combined discographies to date, exing impossibilities, building rhythms from arrhythmia, teasing veiled textures from bold iterations of Synth Patterns. his distinctive fusion of sculpturing through shapeshifting software, programming subtractive and matrix modular synthesis to create playful shivering digital textures which oscillate with and against algorithmically mapped percussion samples, smeared synthetic chords levitate in the distance, stabs of digital noise punctuate the mix in twitchy, time-distorting patterns, the deliberation and control over distinctive textures and particles is obsessive, the end results of each individual track unfold with an organic temperament.

The cover art is painted with acrylic on canvas by romanian artist Elly S Oproiu, founder of Soul Drops and music enthusiast brought on board by the overall designer Mihai Dafinoiu, together making this exquisite release.

Without further introduction we'll let the music speak for itself, thus hoping you enjoy and dance to every second of it ...

Three years incubation; Visionquest compadre Antonio Thagma returns to follow up his evergreen 'Leather Soul' EP. Taking off where his molten constructions left us in 2015, it's another kinetic experience where the groove is full, and only, focus... And the one and only Ricardo Villalobos is on hand for a genuinely beautiful remix.

'Sferikum' instantly locks you in: Upbeat with a subtle strut and a maze of psychedelic textures, this one is all about the rolling subs that underpin every element, bringing everything together with fluid motion. It's backed by the broken electroid charm of 'Everything I Wanted'. Spacious, pensive and laced with an array of dizzying details from sly acid sinews to crafty drum variations by way of a sudden heart-stopping breakdown. Truly, this lives up to its name.

Complementing these two exceptional originals, and celebrating Antonio's return to Visionquest at the highest level possible, Villalobos has been recruited for remix duties. A key staple of his sets this summer, it's a singular 13 minute trip rich in subversion, twists, glitches and surprises. But, as always, the groove is the full, and only, focus. Welcome back Antonio...

true analog dub techno from strange

Dudley Strangeways & Michael McLardy's Leftback imprint has long been a reputable source of discerning house and techno. On their latest, they remind us just why they've become such a trusted label, with their 14th vinyl-only release emphasising the fact with some aplomb. A collaborative effort between label head Dudley Strangeways and prolific German producer David GTronic, the Diminution EP is a potent reminder of both producer's talents and is a typically eclectic listen to boot.

Opening up the release is the sounds of the title track. A fast-paced, albeit relatively minimal effort, it's made up of few parts but still commands the listener's attention courtesy of its many oddball motifs and an underlying baseline that really provides a spark. A delicate yet intricate track, it's the sort of weapon that will brilliantly bridge the point between the night's more down tempo and peak time moments. TIJN then comes correct on the remix tip with a brilliant remix of the latter. The British producer has been seen his work crop up on a host of esteemed labels recently, and this effort is another that'll slide neatly into an already impressive discography. More frantic than the original, it calls on its charming melodies to produce an ethereal, hypnotic track that will work wonders on a large system.

The B side then kicks off with Melee', a delicate track that's imbued with gentle, sun kissed motifs from the off. Reminiscent of classic Mathew Jonson tracks, it's nothing if not an intriguing antidote to matters elsewhere. Culminating the package is the sounds of label boss Michael McLardy, who perks up with a slamming remix of Melee'. Drawing on the original's emotive sound, he whips the intensity up several notches and leaves us with a track that's notable for its ability to slide into any part of a set. Filled with a range of emotions, it handily emphasises all that's great about this release.

Fresno, mysterious new project will release Loosen Up 001, setting the imprint's sound direction uniting the label dual love of refined house grooves and modular synths on this inaugural four track EP.

Lumieux & Paul Agripa team up as Ragrip for UVAR's eighth release, delivering a colorfuly curious EP with "Alla Prima". We follow them in their journey as they proceed to gratify and indulge in classical acoustic influences with "Alkyds", stripped down delivery methods on "Echoppe" and stories of jungle paradise with "Meglip".
Vinyl only, 180 gramm & original artwork included in shrinked sleeve.

The next EP on CCDC comes from Owen Ni. The 19 year old from Alabama shows up with some deep
tunes that ride the line between house and techno in his EP entitled Studies'.

A1: Adolescence - Chunky percussion begins the experience quickly followed by morphing chord
stabs that give of a bright feeling of energy. The percussion changes as the stabs make up the
headlining space, later a vox chords come in to help fill out the tune. Meanwhile a pulsating bass line
is riding so subtly in the underneath the brightness.

A2: Running By The Beat - Deep chord flow while the kick drum slowly appears to establish the
groove. A voice is heard meanwhile the baseline is pulsating. Minimal percussion is heard, yet really
it on the slow build until the entire groove is established

B1: Running By The Beat (Whim-ee Remix) - Whim-EE decides to take it into straight beating
territory. The tempo picks up as the distorted kick drum wangs the woofers. Percussion comes in
slowly, and an acid line takes up the main attention of the track. The vocals are in audible, however it
fits the feel of the idea. Sparse elements continue to make surprise appearances, as the chords are re-
freaked.

B2: Studies - Swirling chords scrape through the air showcases Owen's emotions. In beat down mode,
the percussion comes in slowly to establish a groove. The percussion is low and really for those
heads that like to rock those slower hypnotic waveforms.

On the occasion of its third release, LumièresLaNuit and TONESERIES co-founder, Edouard, is glad to welcome back Brussels-

Ground Tactics is devoted to reaching new music horizons and emotions through an experiment including structures and
harmonies. This experiment occasionally results in contrasts and uncommon pathways as demonstrated in his The Return EP.

After his Dawn Of City Lights LP (LLN006) released at the end of 2016 on the occasion of LLN's 2 Year Anniversary, Ground Tactics
proposes on his The Return EP (ADG003) a more Techno-side of his work: linear, straightforward and effective.

An Der Grenze brings together Techno music and photography in order to take you somewhere between heavens and oceans.

Unscene Record's debut 12-inch release, 'Theme of Roman EP', features three modernistic tracks from Grecian artists
Kostas Georgoudis and Alex Dimou (in a B-side collaboration). A1-Theme Of Roman (Original Mix) initiates the quest by
creating minimalistic soundscapes of a cinematic nature, translating to listeners as a prismatic chemistry of iridescent
textures, dub, and pitch-shifted voices. A2-Palouse (Original Mix), provides a discourse between vintage aesthetics and
futuristic dynamism, rendering a more abstract and atmospheric composition. On the flip side, track B1-Mozy (Original Mix)
demonstrates a steady rhythmic bass construction complimented by high-hat variations, while giving rise to a primordial
sense of movement and full bodied grooves.
Wholly, 'Theme of Roman EP' delivers a cohesive collection of original mixes, all of which stem from various parts of the
deep house/ tech house/ minimal techno spectrum.

Kirill Matveev and Brickman link energies on behalf of a powerful weapon for Russian based label: MixCult Records.

The EP leads with an enchanting dub inclined cut entitled Vice Man' which narrates a story of a dub marching techno soldier from the cold camps of Russia. The mood of this fine crafted art form places the listener in a victorious state of mind. As second, we find an experimentation of gender edges that form a medley of attenuating and danceable cuts called Milk Escape'. As the track progresses, we find the dub entrancing reverberations growing and flourishing into an impenetrable realm of splendor, making this one of MixCult's true favorite refrains. The EP comes to an end with Brickman's Multiverse' which amalgamates into an enchanting dualism between peak time breakdown and beginning of afterhours sound. Multiverse comes down as the equinox and as the romantic blanket of this expertly assembled release.
