hundebiss bossman simone trabucchi - a pivotal figure of the italian scene - debuts his still alias on pan with a batch of banging, multi-layered dancehall tracks inspired by the complex historical links between his hometown, vernasca, with jamaica, and italy’s colonial past in ethiopia. part of a wider visual arts project, invernomuto, helmed alongside simone bertuzzi, and comprising a series of sculptures, installations, a book, and a long-feature experimental documentary under the title ‘negus’‘, simone takes cues from a “cleansing counter-ritual performed by lee ‘scratch’ perry in the vernasca square where 80 years earlier, an effigy of haile selassie i was burned” to cook up a madd set of dancehall tracks voiced by six milan-based, african-italian vocalists and singers...
the first of a two-part package of exclusive material from the 17th edition in the watergate cd series is from none other than the duo who commanded the mix, pan-pot.
auch bei dem zweiten pan-pot release auf ihrem label second state erfüllt das techno-duo alle erwartungen. lasst euch von dem grau in dem titel „grey matter“ nicht täuschen. dieser track leuchtet feuerrot wie auch die vocals unterstreichen: „we’re burning“! auf der anderen seite zeigen pan-pot mit „substance“, wie man die spannung bei einem titel ins unermessliche steigert. immer kurz davor mehr zeigen zu wollen nimmt sich der track wieder zurück und hält das schöne, aufgeregte gefühl am siedepunkt.
tamed monsters ep is an inaugural release of the new record label pandora. new imprint will focus on ambient sounds, music for home-listening and unique artwork. the va includes works from german producer benedikt frey, russian producers shine grooves, unbroken dub, and an ambient group kurvenschreiber. each artist offers a different sound, which lets the music evolve like a story and makes a nice combination of dreamy ambience and mesmerizing repetitive beats.
nach ihrer letzten ep auf mobilee im oktober 2013 erscheint pan-pots neue 2 track ep auf ihrem eigenen label second state audio. cells und third eye sind die ersten beweise dafuer, dass das duo nach 10 jahren ein neues kapitel ihrer musikalischen reise aufgeschlagen hat. waehrend cells sich auf die synthline konzentriert, die beide gepackt hat, und die im laufe des tracks ihre ganze dynamik und volumen entfaltet, wurde third eye aus der idee einer konstant nach vorne schraubenden, hypnotischen bassline geboren, deren hypnotik sich in den kopf des zuhoerers bohrt und ihn suechtig macht
paul kalkbrenner veröffentlichte 2012 mit das gezabel eine erste sehr erfolgreiche single aus dem album guten tag. fuer das im sommer 2014 anstehende remix album haben sich nun die wahlberliner pan-pot, die paul kalkbrenner im jahre 2013 auf tournee begleitet haben, daran gemacht das gute stueck im remixgewandt zu veredeln. das ergebnis ist klassischer pan-pot style wie man ihn liebt, das heißt eleganter high-end produzierter, direkter techno ohne schnoerkel und beschoenigungen. die einpraegsame melodiefuehrung des originals wird geschickt zitiert und scheint aus dem heftigen bass- und beat-konstrukt des remixes immer wieder hervor.
collaboration between hamburg based artists helena hauff and f#x. both residents at iconic hamburg club the golden pudel, hauff and f#x are stellar representatives of an experimental approach that has earned the underground spot its growing reputation. building around competing resonances, the untethered drexciyan melodies probe, expand and contract to rapturous effect.
the pedigree of this collaboration should need little explanation. luminaries of british electronic music spanning over two decades, russell haswell (gescom, haswell & hecker) and downwards label founder karl o connor (regis, sandwell district, british murder boys) have come together to produce three tracks of inimitable experimental techno in their debut collaborative release. with each track built upon a permutating sonic foundation, these are muscular and expertly paced compositions that effortlessly transition between hypnotic rhythms and textural and timbral experimentation.

blasting off the a-side is >gravity<, a high-tempo number picking up linear momentum verse after verse, featuring serious vocals by g-tech. on the flip, cari goldens soulful vocals chime in and out of the expressional >no one knows<. safeword, a magnetic duo comprised of clint stewart and marc smith from san francisco, remix >gravity< through heaven and hell as >sunset< delivers a calm and spiritual opening piece slowly easing the listener into >tenderloin<, a dark, grave track with subdued vocals and feeble beats.
deep space orchestra have been carving out a very nice name for themselves over the past year, and alongside the likes of cottam and krl itʼ,,,s safe to say that they are helping to establish an exciting new movement of raw, detroit-inspired house. the diy approach is very much a part of their ethic, as is the underground feel and aesthetic which imbues their own use of weapons label as well as their recent releases on similarly minded vinyl-orientated labels such as foto and kirk degiorgioʼ,,,s legendary art. the release we have here is perhaps their most refined music yet, showing a development in their production level on two tracks which are brimming with a warmth and fatness whilst retaining that critical raw edge which only a handful of the most exacting producers seem capable of. lo pan builds around a fat, bouncing bass line and a brilliantly lilting groove created by straight 808 hats and shuffling shakers. the feel keeps shifting throughout the song, sometimes superswung, sometimes straight and driving, all the while simple detroit strings build and analogue arps are layered up building the tension in the arrangemen
>can ting< is west indian slang for a steel pan, a much loved instrument in the caribbean world. here the duo takes on this magnificant sound maker that brings people together in massive street battles containing thousands of practising steel pan musicans playing all thru the night. due to its complicated note structure and technical limitations in tuning single areas in the steel pan, this instrument requires many years of practising. the sound of a one hundred man strong steel pan orchestra is something everyone should see and experience once in their lifetime.
avocado # 1 was the secrect weapon in dc 10 last summer! big with: ame, matthias tanzmann, tanja volcano, steve bug,…!! #2 comes even stronger ! a: peter pan: following up from the immense track >elephant<, >peter pan< does not betray rune and sydenhams tough deep tech sensibilities. grinding along, this track blurs the boundaries between tech- house and techno. b: snow bored: >snow bored< is a deep and sophisticated piece of tech effervescence clearly demonstrating the serious approach sydenham and rune take in their search of new techno pastures.

"aaltopiiri is an album filled with alluring, ambient frequencies and hypnotic rhythms. tracks like kone and kierto stutter and groove, while elsewhere aanipaa and liuos provide lush, addictive pulses. they are often asked what the track & album titles actually mean when translated into english, but as they often invent or combine finnish words the "definitions" become quite vague. for example, a legendary maybe mythological low creeping mist from a particular area of finland or, a variant technological term for a certain aspect of a early radio wave experiments."
neben dj baba, dj deep, dj el mago, dj yoiser und anderen ist er einer der wahren begründer des venezolanischen tanzmusik-kontinuums, das als changa bekannt ist, mit subgenres wie street house und raptor house, auch wenn sich sein sound später zu einem eigenen, einzigartigen stil namens hard fusion entwickelte.
