young talented producer steve lorenz from italy combines his techno tracks with fusion basses and deep kicks that features cool grooves of industrial sounds in constant evolution. techno, detroit, minimal, dub are delivered with a depth and resonance of sound that is absolutely unique.

next up on tirk we have a brand new act, named free school. hailing from birmingham, shoegaze duo andy and steve bring the sunny balearic sounds of summer and the icy kosmiche sounds of winter all in one sweeping hit. free school are maximalist and minimalist all at once.
the band like to compare themselves to caribou, orbital, hot chip, fourtet, and pet shop boys, all pretty good touchstones in our eyes, however it was the sheer gloriousness of their music that had us hooked.
their debut ep features the uplifting and euphoric >ranting and raving< and the 9 minute sound-movie >lemon<. remixes come from richard norris and his time and space machine project (we are going to have to put this guy on the payroll soon) and russian ice cool customer sportloto. free school also appear live (in sheep masks no less) so watch out for them at a venue near you. their debut album is in the pipeline and already sounding good.

here is the next höhenregler from steve nash.

steve lorenz is the guy you will have to look for in the next months. he works around many musical influences. the first track >overclock< evolves into fat basses, bursted kicks & percussions. >overclock< remix, operated by damon wild international acclaimed and legendary synewave boss label (joe beltram/ jeff mills / adam beyer…,), results in an energic deeper techno, mental beats & dubby influences, a mind blast! the track >viraga< keeps the finest line. industrial noises & subliminal female voices are twisting in speakers & surely ll keep your head! close your eyes & start the journey. closing the race, >viraga< remix was realized by narrow friend kane roth (smallroom / lessismore), south french producer who recently moved to berlin. her production means well being quality, there is no coincidence if she has been remixed by maetrik & monoloc some months ago. keeping essential elements of the original viraga , she dropped a muscle main floor edit! hands up!

vince watsons bio imprint is now back in full flow, and following on from >pressure< we now have the 2nd installment of the release, with some very exclusive guest mixes and yet another killer track from vince himself. first up is steve rachmad, who has featured on bio before, previously remixing the classic >aurelon< in 2004 ... so he is back this time to give >pressure< the rachmad treatment. a fantastic example of steves production skills and really takes >pressure< into a different direction. absorbing and hypnotic, but with the killer dancefloor twists ... this is what vinces bio music label is all about!

the berlin-based partnership of long-time friends steve bug and clé has reared many a classy deep house tune in its time… their classic silicon ballet ep from 2007 led us heavily into their sound, combining melodic, blissful elements with the heavy vibes of the old-school acid days. now were due another full ep with seven hills. the title track is a refined, long-playing stormer - perfect for the coming months as the summer weather stirs up open-air fever! from humble beginnings a riotous, epic track grows fusing the poker flat boys patented analog production and natural ear for a melody. heartfelt strings draw the track to its finale as a teasing breakdown arrives around the 6 minute mark. this is a real slow-burner in the best sense of the phrase. the more urgent monkeyshoulder drives a deep blazing night-time vibe all the way home. smooth, filtering chords and spacey stabs swirl in a magical futuristic-yet-classic house jam. simply deadly in the right moment, this bright and dynamic production really does justice to the pairs talents
