rasmus hedlund presents his third full length album on the ljudverket label. the diverse tonal range of the cuts showcase further experimentations in dub. the title ‘far’ has a deeper meaning stating some personally reached milestones and also being the word for father in hedlund’s native language swedish.
one of the sought after cuts from his recent artist album, >always< is the second release from rasmus fabers farplane label. remixes come from 2 big names, japanese dons of the house scene studio apartment make their label debut, bringing their coveted tech edged tools to the party and turning the track into a real punchy number. veterans of the new york deep house scene, ananada project also make their farplane debut, adding a rich live bass & upbeat percussive element to perfectly compliment the sultry uplifting vocals..!
rasmus fabers outstanding farplane label strikes back with a typical slice of energetic house that only rasmus is capable of delivering. a five star remix package (as is generally the case with farplane!) with richard earnshaw & mark bamfords spiritchaser rework & wamdue projects label debut striking every right chord

fresh on francis harris kingdoms imprint comes rasmus junckers ‘ophold - six tracks of sublime atmospheres and textures. the danish musician, sound composer and dj fits perfectly with the labels aesthetic, joining the dots between ambient, leftfield electronica and modern classical. juncker has a background in studying jazz drumming and has been playing improvised music within the jazz domain for many years. he also started to dj at the age of 14 and was introduced to the world of electronic music production at the same time. when rasmus started to think about his debut album he spent several months trying to find his own way to combine his favourite musical influences, improvisation, electronics and classical music. almost a year later, juncker says, i went to a sensory deprivation floating tank in copenhagen while researching for another performance and while i was lying there, floating in the water, deprived from most of my senses, i got the idea to do something drastic in my musical process. philosophers like immanuel kant describe this deprived state as a mental cesura, which became some sort of guideline for the album.

from the cold and sublime northern european scenery back to mono records one of the leading figures of finnish electronic scene, rasmus hedlund, this time with an own ep composed by two amazing tracks, >arma< and >katkolla<. fresh techno with high impact energy, full of enveloping atmospheres ideal for long winter evenings.
after his debut releases on resopal, young finish producer rasmus hedlund follows up with another brilliant ep on the motherlabel. its the fiftyeight installment of the resopal 12inch releases so far and we quote him as one the most interesting and promising new techno producer of the year. back to bassics offers four deep electronic techno tracks, a finish version of new school minimalism that, all by all reaches the dancefloors of today. rolling kickers with massive synth lines. rasmus hedlund is definitely going to pave the way for resopal 12inch direction this fall
as on his first 12inch hidden structure ep, finland based producer rasmus hedlund is delivering his follow up with uplifting, energetic and ass shakin future electronic music. the opener >tasureitten jaelkeen< is a combination of the deepness of house and the direct drive and aggressiveness of the monetanous techno sound, stirred up with that special, classic and timeless feeling while the a2 takes the vibe harder with layers of pacy minimal soaked rhythms by remixer uemit akauna and his fresh mixing gives this track a real big system bass edge. on the flip we have kolinator, a more percussive tool and the b2 skuuges taas. all four tracks are aimed squarely at the dancefloor, with straight forward 4/4 beats driving through raw synth stabs, minimal percussion and deep bass - a clear-cut killer groove record which nails the crowd to the floor!
powerful reduced techno for the peaktime. rasmus hedlunds first release on resopal demonstrates his profound grasp of reduced groove with four powerful cuts.the full e.p. will work on the way up, in peak time, and on the way down, and it is all in all tracky enough and tuneful enough to be a great mixing tool anywhere in the set.
from a brief appearance on framed & formed 2 to a full-fletched techno ep on iron box music! rasmus hedlund impresses once again with his old-skool basic channel type techno. but not just chill and deep, but dance-floor jacking numbers that will impress anyone who is willing to bop their heads to great music but it wouldn't be an iron box release if deepness weren't represented. while oneside pumps like a pissed-off step mother, the other side explores the deep realm of techno, just like we've come accustomed from our friends in finland. watch out for rasmusà he brings the old back and makes it sound like it never left!!
