having lain out it s darkened techno vision with the epic and enthralling inertia compilation over the last few months, delsin s little sister, ann aimee, is back. back with another bang, this time from mysterious vault series associate sawlin who drops four cuts of grainy, scratchy sounds with his techno dumping ep.

title track -dust- launches the ep into an immediately throbbing groove, rung through with the dissonant clangs of the genre s cold, machine-obsessed heritage. this hydraulic homage is succeeded by -overshadow- —a closer inspection of techno s cogs and wheels that sees volkov tinkering with its parts over 9 minutes of cumulative atmospherics. endless—the new collaboration between alistair wells aka perc and giorgio gili, based on speedy j s electric deluxe label—offers a hypnotic remix from their pooled influences of brian eno, byetone, robert henke, irdial and ifach. here volkov s dark and growling slow-burner is stepped up into an octane workout, dressed with gili s minimalistic traits and seasoned with a spot of perc-style abrasiveness. -corner- is dust ep s provocative closer. driven by anxious, incessant hats and syncopated hisses it uses suspended melodic morsels to work itself into a beguiling anti-climax that leaves you begging for more.

the new ep from memoria comes from fast-rising romanian producer vid whose previous outings have come on labels including fear of flying and barraca music. vid (vidum) aka sorin rastoaca is a producer obsessed with nature and organic sounds. his latest release >rebirth<, is stripped but not light on feeling, and mines a vein somewhere between deep house and minimal techno. etime is a fluttery, eerie cut that works on many subtle layers. like the feathery minimal percussion of villalobos, the romanians sounds present like flapping butterfly wings as a kick drum punches out a varied pattern below. poem is a little louder and bolder, with a firm rolling kick drum and drunken, wubby sounds running right through its core. plenty of sonic details flesh out the languorous but slightly tribal groove. rebirth is again about little tiny details and how they evolve with time, but the framework they inhabit this time is deep, late-night house with gentle tinkles on keys coming over like a fluttering candle in the dark. 3729 gets its head down and mines a shifty, itching and tight minimal groove, closing out an ep which shows vid to be a master of working minimum sounds into maximum effects.

having announced the expansion of the vibes & pepper brand into record label ownership in consummate style with a timely reissue of the seminal claude young & terrence parker ep the 4 play, the parisian operation now is proud to present the new school of bumping house talent in the shape of tomska. the belgian producer has been steadily cutting his production teeth over recent times, with a few select remixes and releases that showcase his love for the sounds of chicago and detroit, something that is explored with aplomb on the four track mental raw ep. from the opening bars of >lets get it on< tomska shows undeniable ease for combining emotive melodies with a crisp and contemporary treatment of rhythms, with the snapping >everynight< a particular highlight.

two american heroes team up to deliver the straight prison-funk, and they ve got the tattoos to prove it. somebody call the department of homeland security. its no secret that kris wadsworth and butane have both done hard time. in this case, a simple mutual respect lead to the decision that this record must be made. and so here it is. three tracks of uncompromising raw attitude. nothing premeditated here. just honest,warehouse-style jack-mode techno, done by two of the midwests finest. some djs over-sell themselves with contrived media stunts, fancy pr schemes, and little substance. youll find none of that here. we are just a couple of convicts who rip raw techno tracks. we speak through our music.

eduardo de la calle releases three new records, two on analog solutions, and one on sub label suprawax. musically, the tracks tie in with where he left of, featuring held back percussion, hypnotic and prolonged use of slowly modulated patterns. several tracks even do away completely with hi-hats. once in a while the almost trademark tweak of the delay tears the tracks open that are otherwise reduced to the essence of a deep groove. these records mark a new high point in de la calles musical output: they meld an awareness of techno history - and, let us be candid, sometimes samples out of it - with a tripped-out understanding for the passing time on the dance floor. the result is a form of distinctly contemporary dance music. all the same, de la call’s music eludes present day trends of going overtly retro and being contently at rest in nothing but epigonism. nor are they the maximised-to-death tracks spun of the present day techno functionalist goading crowds by the means of formalistic upbuilds over and over. his sound carves out a niche quite its own: its the ultimate modern day dj tool. all records have been pressed in a run of 320 copies and come in inside-out natural cardboard sleeves. no represses are planned at present.

bill youngman has become one of the most important parts of the killekill family. his new record displays his wide range of interests: from dark techno in shadent he crosses over to drone monster alert in wespe to his very own style of melodic electro in centrumcircuit. about bill youngman: scandinavia, tresor, null etc., bill has from day one been producing a lot of excellent other stuff. for exam- ple, he released one album of the finest electronica on depth charge’s dc recordings under the alias audible, several great eps of electro on serotonin and recently remixed jamie lidell in a rather techy dubstep style for warp. bill doesnt follow trends and dislikes being categorized into one stale genre and so perfectly fits into the killekill master plan. expect several eps from him on killekill in the future. bill will furthermore attempt to push the threshold of modern electronic music production.

in over 10 years of experience in the hard electronic music scene, stormtrooper has scored releases on labels such as industrial strength, artillery, deathchant and several others, always bringing a different sound which has shocked the crowds of many countries. now, after his appearance on sana 10, the man strikes back on the 17th release of cerebral destruction with 4 intense, multifaceted tracks which contain the result of his latest sound research. nice and quiet sound e.p. is not just an alchemic mixture of hardcore and drum and bass, but blends also everything in between in a way only stormtrooper can. another dancefloor cleaner? no way! while having his sound fresh and experimental, peter kept the vibe which moves the crowd always avoiding the obvious combinations. the truth is that there are no words for this record the only way to fully understand is to listen for yourself the nice (and not so quiet) sound of stormtrooper!

if you have been following graeme clark in his solo disguise as the revenge or the stream of 6th borough project 12-inches leading up to this one, you should know what to expect here—deep, blissfully hypnotic sampledelia with track flows governed by the laws of extreme repetition. its a shame that trance means a particular subgenre of electronic music, because that term applies just as much to the effects of these tracks as anything tiësto has ever played.
given the space, clark and craig smith are able to utilize this formula over a broad musical spectrum, creating music in the full-fledged sense, one that traces a landscape of tempos, styles and emotions and a menagerie of resurrected sounds conjures up images of dusty record shops and tattered vinyl, musical spirits captured on wax. awesome!

although it has found emotional music from france, russia and south africa over the years, for this release it returns to the birthplace of deep house, chicago, to focus on up and coming producer matthew wieck. opening the ep with the wiry tones and lush pads of >flying feeling< whichs take you up into the stratosphere with its floaty vibe, its complimented by >hydroacoustics<, which utilises an aquatic arpeggio lead and warm, oozing pad underneath, held together with crips, charged percussive work. on the flipside >worlds beyond< demonstrates wiecks darker side, with an acid bassline riffing against cavernous piano in what sounds like a more introverted take on larry heard. altered moods boss malcolm moore finishes off the ep with >cleared direct<, an 808 jam held together with foggy chords and disembodied radio transmissions - the perfect compliment to wiecks fine material.

whilst some people claim that the number seven is lucky, some people, like duff, dont believe in luck, or if there is such a thing as luck you make your own. you cant rely on anyone else to hold your hand you know, you gotsta forge your own path, they arent called the mean streets for nothing. duff is the sort of man who not only makes his own luck (cos who else is gonna look after you?) but he keeps an eye on his bredren too. those in the neighbourhood feel safe because all is good in duffs hood, always has been, always will be, the police dont even come there, because they don’t have to, that block is on lock-down brother. though he isnt some type of machismo, over-the-top (hat back go-on sly) caricature, its just the way it is, nuthin to argue about. he has a way about him, the glare of a pitbull and the smile of don juan, dusty is his girl yep thats her real name, the name her mamma gave her on the day she was introduced to this world. the girl is fine thats for sure but what else would you expect from the honey that rides shotgun with the sonic casanova. she might call herself lucky. duff would disagree.
