impérieux begann die produktion von modus operandi in bulgarien und setzte sie während seines umzugs nach berlin im vergangenen jahr fort. der künstler sagt, es war eine melancholische zeit, der umgang mit dem kulturschock und einer neuen sprache war auch ohne pandemie eine herausforderung. diese ep ist eine reflexion dessen. dunkel und grüblerisch, simpel und surreal.

after the fulminant launch of the label, modus operandi starts into the second round. this times releasing two new tracks of the gebrueder ton. der gelbe fluss streams like a sonic-river and carries anybody on who dares to come too close to the dancefloor. especially the second track denk an mich captures the ears of its listener. glass projekte – the latest track of the einmusik trio – this track develops massive, but not too heavy. and after the saw comes in it is all clear: go for the dancefloor, thats right. a very round thing, this record

from the pure beauty and bliss of the a-side with their irressistible funky beats amd melodic synth lines and the deep emotional electrofield stringladden 'going down on wordward' to the storming and uncompromising dancefloor bomb 'the 909 dice' on the b-side.. influenced by the birthplace, the motor city detroit..

following the long tradition of those trying to lift spirits by the means of pure and bright sounds, there is the explosion – a trio whose name reflects so accurately the radiant modus operandi as well as the effusion that must have surrounded the smooth recording process of their first album.

as weekend circuit approach their 20th release, argentinian duo yyyy return for their second full length ep on the label to celebrate this benchmark. the yyyy modus operandi is already familiar to the initiated - expressive, raw techno experimentalism from the outer reaches. carry this blood is a collection of 4 moods and sounds, carved out with emotion soaked ambience, synapse flaring distortion and machine fracturing rhythms. repent , as the title suggests, takes no prisoners, leaving no survivors in it s wake, it is a glimpse into a tear in the time-space continuum where chaos rules. hands towards the giver is epic, glacial, spacial widescreen techno. dramatic and urgent, the soundtrack to a doomed planet collapsing from within. carry this blood bestows an eerie, cold feeling. an atmosphere of regret and loss hangs over it like a thick fog on a hillside, punctuated only by a heartbeat mimicking kick drum offering a human touch. of thrones and comfort snaps us out of the haze, the fog clears and we are faced with the frenzied electronics and thundering kick drum of this most sinister of tracks.

with david mayers share of keinemusiks current workparty edition still providing solid fuel for heated clubfloors, he already shovelstwo fresh loads into the furnace. km021 has just surfaced in a moment when electrified techno-music seems to drown in an ocean of preset-dullness. well, mayer has come to provide a rescue tool with his sunhole on side a. youll recognize this somewhat trademark-becoming percussive fetish of mayer as this tracks modus operandi. yet, it has rarely been as detailed and surgically implemented as in this banger. whats that – a second hand ticking? and over there – is it a woodpecker in the field? sunhole supplies all the answers in a thumping, yet no friskiness avoiding manner. youll get a stoically rolling beat, asphalting the floor, to build a cannonproof foundation for thisarrangements main attraction – a filtered and delay-heavy synth-affair.flip around and find a competitive jamboree of subtle background-brainwaves other would straightaway use as lead-ideas for their tracks. well, this matchingly titled lead comes in with a hard hitting kick and gets into the groove via filter-rides to peak into clanking noisy industrial-thunder that immediately will electrify every steel-toe in hearing range. generally - only roughness in this cut, crispy bounce and ghostly whispers all over. most definitely for the win, this double broadside.

as his label marks its 60th release, lost & found owner guy j returns with his brand new ep. guys modus operandi performs superbly with themes which would otherwise risk sounding aimless and decadent. his range is thrilling, thoughtfully arranged even in the thickest of textures, never heartless, blunt or unbalanced. both in his harmonious and production statements, guy j leaves nothing indisputable. each frequency is analyzed. each note adjusted.

rough and ready machine tracks from brazilian producer/december collaborator innsyter (la club resource). cyn002 picks up where coletivo vandalismo left off, channeling that same wild, diy bedroom studio spirit across nine individual recordings. opening with sprawling synth motifs fighting against a steady rhythm track, desintegrado sounds like an industrial dub punk trying to channel early cluster or moebius and strangely succeeding. the rest of the lp treats us to vaguely drexciyan, subaquatic electro (bries) and twisted lo-fi minimalism with bonus eerie monologue samples (superficial love). the one recurring theme on magnetic healing is innsyter s clear love for mournful, post-punk inspired melodies. it comes across loud and clear on almost every track yet never sounds tired. things eventually draw to a close with the hopelessly romantic new wave instrumental forest shaman - a short ballad for all those weary-eyed party-goers who stuck around til the sun came up!

all day i dream returns for another summer sampler with seasonal tunes from the likes of jonas rathsman, sébastien léger, volen sentir, leo grünnbaum, yokoo, and more. wonderous pads, delicate percussion, and soft voicings cohesively blend the 9-track compilation into a spectacle of aural bliss, weaving between dancefloor friendly and the more sonically relaxing tracks under adid’s signature modus operandi...

from the opening bars of this debut album you instantly just know it’s going to deliver the tunes, and it doesn’t let up until the last note. the allergies’ modus operandi is taking vintage sounds and reshaping them for modern dance floors, and they go about it with style.

nice price deal !!! 2003 classic!!

andreas tilliander returns to kontra-musik in a grand style with his second tm404 album. titled acidub , this highly anticipated release is much more of an evolution than a repetition of the first superbly self-restricted album, where tilliander even decided to use only one of the two roland tb-303 waveforms. acidub is a more playful and open listening experience, no doubt inspired by his extensive live touring with the tm404 concept. in fact, you can almost hear tilliander s flock of acid machines breaking free from the restrained modus operandi. every sound is like a migratory bird with a heart yearning for high altitude and favourable winds.

sources is a brand new series which will examine the output of a number of extremely influential independent u.s. labels throughout the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. in an age where corporate anonymity reigns supreme and music is being treated like aural wallpaper, the sources series will go back to a time when record labels really meant something via their a&r policies, their ground-breaking releases, their everyday modus-operandi and their general philosophies

nice price deal !!! dronelock and ontals joint label venture shadow story is a base for the dark, industrial exploration of sound that all four corners of the british/serbian double duo employ as their modus operandi. having collaborated previously on the *4 razors* ep via duality, the foursome unite again on *continuum*, the second shadow story release. a 4-track vinyl outing that has already garnered dj support from surgeon, it comes bolstered by remixes from uk techno veteran paul mac and recent r&s signing lakker.

like the face-painted celtic hordes that succesfully repelled all invaders, seaghdha continues to dominate the high ground and provide sonic sustenance for rave caves the world over. as the series continues to pick up new fans and plaudits aplenty, the modus operandi remains the same - precision club workouts, which ricochet between uk flavoured jams, to clean cut techno & stripped down house.

following on from his long awaited album ku:palm in november of last year, we now see its lead track pyramid get a vinyl release on photeks own label, photek productions. the eastern instrumentation and spacey beats may not be apt for every dance floor, but for fans of modus operandi era photek, pyramid is an essential tune. on the flip we have oshun, another track from ku:palm this time remixed by beneath, a producer that began making waves last year with a series of 12 inches on his own label, no symbols and a cracking mix for fact mag. he has gone on to release the illusions ep on dusk & blackdowns keysound recordings, as well as a 12 inch on pinchs influential tectonic recordings. mixing the darkest elements of funky, dub and syncopated grime with a distinctly uk edge, beneaths complex layered beats result in a truly unique sound that is a perfect matched to remix fellow experimentalist photek. a young producer that clearly knows his shit, beneath is a breath of fresh air.

two dogs in a house is steve summers and ron morelli (l.i.e.s) meanest project to date. rising from the delay saturated muck, pushing the red, straight forward and to the point with no time to waste, these brooklyn dogs started with a simple modus operandi as to make effective, psychedelic tracks that they would want to hear on a proper club system. and you do want to hear dogs anthem in a proper soundsystem. a fat one. rather than a decent follow up to their l.i.e.s. ep, this 12? is an statement by itself, sounding more experimental and raw ?if that?s possible than its predecessor. it evokes chicago, detroit, and industrial records equally, but do not get mixed up: this is a weapon designed to tear dancefloors apart! limited copies , hand numbered.

produced in 2004, this ep marks an essential shift in the production of stefan goldmann to his modus operandi as a dedicated innovator. he had adapted the barricade guise to induce some serious deviations into the techno realm. yet, heads werent ready and he simply continued under his real name with his major breakthrough works: perlons blood ep and the legendary sleepy hollow tune. hidden from the public, aleko and frantic had built a prototypic aesthetic of rough, concrete-space sounds - reduced dark, metallic percussion grooves, spring reverbs and degraded post-acidic synths. you name it where you heard this sound years later. its revealing how far ahead these tunes were at the time of their creation. they sound more now than many current tracks. aleko is the 4/4 techno version of this soundset, locked-in clonk patterns built around a nitrous bassline. frantic could be a future development to todays dubstep, if it wasnt its actual historic predecessor. add the schizophrenic bass excursion heliotrope and you have a package of painstaking relevance. back then the a&rs simply didnt get it - thats why it took 6 years and the formation of victoriaville to finally bring these gems to light

having grown up with and on the internet, martin steer (1986) has transformed its pull into a concept album that is just as immediate and intangible as the digital world. bad stream is guitars and machines vanishing in the spaces between radiohead and nine inch nails only to reemerge amidst ambient, noise, and drone. bad stream, then, is his modus operandi a hybrid soundtrack to the feelings of resignation, isolation, and cynicism within neoliberal cyberspace and to that strangely numbing comfort of bodies transmuting into zeros and ones in real time

final song goes to the very heart of musics spiritual dimension by asking a number of musicians to select their ideal last song, either to serenade their final moments or to memorialize them after the fact. the participating artists deserve to be commended for their openness: theyre responding to one of the most personal questions one could ask. (several of those approached declined to take part- taboos are taboos, after all.)
