adam beyers drumcode imprint welcomes waff to its roster with two thudding techno tracks.

luigis primo and unconditional beauty both made their way through the charts to become number one in the techno charts and we are tipping magic land to do the same! storming his way back onto drumcode luigi madonna closes off the summer with a 2 track ep smasher that will see him welcome in autumn with a bang. each track contains the solid, raw drums that are the backbone to each track luigi has conjured up. with a brooding undertone, the simplicity found in each track gives the lead lines and ideas more space to breath, which overall creates a unique and charismatic submission that can only be found from the italian.

luigi madonnas production talents are glistening with releases on well-known labels such as drumcode, octopus, analytictrail, sleaze, suara and more.

damian lazarus signs another classic from the enigmatic drumtalk, a revered producer who brings in the sublime singing talents of josa peit, signed to brandt brauer frick’s label for the invigorating and anthemic lose again. championed by gilles peterson, seth troxler, midland & huxley of late and attracting a large, loyal and diverse following from james holden and skream, wildcard shows drumtalks sinister sneer, a techno weapon shooting to kill. gamma makes playful experiments with sounds to great effect, a unique and eloquent record that sways with grace.

powell unveils his brand new single ‘insomniac / should’ve been a drummer’.. his second release on xl recordings. following on from the acerbic ‘sylvester stallone / smut’ double a-side released earlier this year, the new single continues to blur the lines between contemporary club music, punk and forward-thinking computer acid. describing the music is a challenging prospect… but dancing to it isn’t. both as an artist in his own right and through the music released on his own label diagonal, oscar powell has established himself among this decade s most singular, exciting artists. the music is tough, but always playful.

drumma records presents its second collaboration with romanian duo vinyl speed adjust (vsa). the ep titled the awakening shows us vsas intelligent approach to music, an ideal fit at drumma records where creatively effervescent music is embraced with open arms. the record has 4 tracks. the eponymous the awakening is a special trip between break rhythms, modern jazz and a dreamy perpetual arpeggio. it creates a great mood for artists who want to present something special during their set. a2 is the grind, a very strong and acid track with a powerful evolving bassline that creates perfect suspense. inspired by the 90s, its raw and its analogue, definitely a hot track. monoxide comes with a linear rhythmic pattern and a very deep sub-bass sound fused with trippy synth soundscapes, ideal to put in a mental note during a session. the release is topped off with an amazing remix by the great valentino kanzyani. hes brought his own approach to the grind. the remix is a track with very strong groove and an intelligent evolution that creates small sonic worlds at every turn. valentino knows how to masterfully work a constant crescendo where tension and rest is perfectly resolved and we can feel his approach to techno at its best.

alan fitzpatrick makes a triumphant return to the scene-leading imprint this august. the typically bombastic three-tracker of explosive, crowd-moving techno opens with love siren packed with all the power and punch required to knock over festival crowds as it systematically builds and drops, this is one for the big open air stages. ‘u said u is a massively hyped track that has been the subject of huge fan-demand since it first featured on beyer s drumcode radio in january. rumours wraps things up in slightly more understated but non-the-less effective fashion with its drawn out, tension building intro mushrooming into a crescendo of sleazy chords and sparking melodies

als unser guter freund lexx mit diesen tracks von look like auf uns zukam, wußten wir noch nichts von diesem jungen talent aus zürich. nachdem wir uns seine musik anhörten, blieb uns aber nichts anderes übrig, als sie zu veröffentlichen. seine musik ist beinflusst vom klassischen sound aus chicago und detroit, beinhaltet aber auch elemente der uk-bass music, sowie die aufgeschlossenheit von jemandem, der stets auf der suche nach progression ist.

jel ford returns to drumcode after his highly anticipated remix of alan fitzpatrick s for an endless night. ford laces his three electrifying, new original tracks with a high energy that are guaranteed to get any dance floor rocking. heavily featuring on adam beyer s drumcode radio both red mist and overcast have gained heavy support from dj s and fans alike. ode to basement is an end of night smasher that will make everyone melt into the ground as it is caressed out of the sound system

your favorite foil faced machine heads, frak, on lux rec. big tip! nordic woods are a dangerously primitive place. fueled with madness and induced delirium frak land on planet lux. three slow, acid numbers with a barbaric, crude attitude. relentless drums. fierce, hypnotic synthesizers that get you lost in your own mind. suddenly sinister, disastrous images populate your consciousness. and then one last strange, twisted wave track. new places, new adventures

featuring heavily on most of drumcodes shows due to his impeccable djing, bart skils is back with a new ep flexing his signature rolling sound and hooks. caressing from one track to another, the use of pads in this ep and using uneasy sounds to build tension in each track. the swelling bass within each track manoeuvres the tracks into dark after hours territory with the help of the subtle percussion.

the drumcode a-sides compilation is quickly becoming synonymous within the techno world as a go to compilation for the hottest tracks that are deservedly a-side material in their own right. each specific track has it own unique character that brings an outstanding and electrifying aspect to the compilation that as a whole makes it something extremely special. mixing both highly experienced and new artists has helped to bring a new dimension to the compilation that makes it such a special array of tracks.

master londons joseph russel signs for funkdriven quirky chicago techno but a 1, drums of lagos, stands out of many. what starts like a sturdy minimalist drum and snare pattern monotrack turns inti a discotech monster all at once and seemingly oout of almost nowhere. and once the surprise swingbreak of the track gets you hooked there no stopping.

victor calderone has stepped up for his first solo release on drumcode with his two track single, burden. featuring two energetic tracks, *skin* and *burden*, victor has used effected vocals to create funky rhythms over the top of some steaming kick drums. the synth stabs lend themselves well across this ep particularly in *burden* where they really augment the flow of the track. the use of percussion phrases throughout both tracks on the single also reinforces the grooves and adds character to create a distinctive sound that keeps the single fresh and exciting.

recent output has seen dorisburg pushing into deeper realms. computer drumming are some further steps in these explorations of 4/4 rhythms and acoustic depth. with a wide range in tempo, the track titles offers aid for the venturous. a1 is a reduced jam of echoing percussion that never sees the entry of a kick drum. a2 compensates with bouncing bass and a playful array of drumming elements entering and dropping off in a bold tempo. exiting on a more well established pulse, the b side consists of the deepest and most mysterious offering from dorisburg to date. distant bells and chimes and a grand formation of percussion meets thundering bass in an encounter set on vast grounds.

mr mckay is back on drumcode with an ep that is very close to home, titled *glasgow safari*. harvey has blended his synonymous synth stabs and vocal hooks together and has created another outstanding ep. the drums are fat and chunky as always and allow harveys ideas to flow effortlessly over a solid foundation. the smooth use of dynamic throughout harveys tracks also create impressive drops to add to another exceptional ep from harvey.
