der dramatische thriller der beiden safdie-brüder ist eine hypnotische odyssee durch die new yorker unterwelt, in der der protagonist verzweifelt versucht, seinen bruder aus dem gefängnis zu holen. die hauptrollen spielen robert pattinson (in seiner bislang besten performance) und jennifer jason leigh. musik und bilder gehen dabei eine symbiose von unglaublicher tiefe ein, wenn banale events zu dramen und montagen zu miniopern werden. oneohtrix point never gelingt mit dem soundtrack ein ausgesprochenes hörerlebnis, das seinen exzellenten studioalben in nichts nachsteht, und mit -the pure and the damned- featuring iggy pop einen markanten schlüsseltrack enthält.

folding citys debut on through these eyes is charged with exerting drum rhythms and high-energy movement throughout. the a-side enthralls with psychedelic string plucks and silky smooth, even trance-inducing arrangement. livid percussive movements, powdered with delays and tribal grooves, are creatively used - as well as haunting, emotive pads. ‘museling’ is a different beast to witness, starting off with hypnotic arpeggios and taunting, grimy vocals, anticipating the impact. swift hi-hats race along an intensely stomping bass-line, pervaded with gritty but fluid motion - resulting in extraordinarily energetic music. the two-sided single elegantly shares the same signature sound, each track complementing the other.

one of the current techno scene’s ‘hidden treasures’, bristol based a sagittariun has discretely released a wide breadth of music over the last five years for labels like secretsundaze, hypercolour and his own elastic dreams label. two highly acclaimed albums in “dream ritual” and “elasticity” as well as fifteen eps have appealed to those who like their techno without frontiers, taking in blistering 140bpm techno, breakbeat idm and ambient dub with ease. his second release for hypercolour displays signs of crossover appeal at long last… lead track “vanishing point” has already been receiving early plays from the likes of laurent garnier (dropping it in his recent timewarp germany set), spencer parker and len faki. big pumping beats and spiralling fx fall aside to a lone breakbeat that ushers in one pretty special breakdown section. the childlike keys and fathoms deep synth stabs (straight out of the john carpenter school of fathoms deep synth stabs) have already drawn comparisons to the retro 80s vibes to be heard on the american sci-fi horror series stranger things. it’s a breakdown that takes the listener to an uncharted dimension, bookended by slammin’ beats that acts as a perfect mood changer in any set. watch this one soar! “the pathway” keeps things on an all together straighter tip, an incessant tribal loop weaves and filters around a thunderous kick and shuffling hats, ebbing and flowing all the way in what might be a sagittariun’s most club-centric and stripped back production yet. matrixxman (dekmantel/spectral sound) is on hold to deliver a superb remix, pushing the original down a long dark tunnel for a growling and reverberating techno overhaul

i did not know what achievements, what mockery, even what tortures awaited me. i knew nothing, and i persisted in the faith that the time of cruel miracles was not past. - stanislaw lem (solaris, 1961)
this paragraph from solaris, the novel written in 1961 by stanislav lem, is the starting point for the concept this 30drop album has been built upon. science fiction masters like lem are one of the greatest influences for the artist, who devised this album after the mental challenges that humans should overcome in a future: encounter with beings from other civilizations: capable of interacting with us in a totally unthinkable way so far.

brianna price aka b.traits, launches her new record label venture, in.toto, with a self-produced two track single, still point/north shore. in.toto, to mean as a whole, altogether, unity, will focus not only on her own productions and releases, but also provide a platform for up and coming artists, and those producers already championed in her dj sets and hugely loved bbc radio 1 show, by way of new material and compilation albums. the label will be backed by bespoke events and club nights, enabling the artists and the sound of in.toto to reach far and wide. on the labels inaugural release, brianna sets the tone perfectly with still point. gnarly, rasping bass punctures the gentle piano riff and ethereal synth pads as this club ready track blossoms into life, the assured and driving drums never letting the energy drop for one second. on the flip side of the limited edition, purple 12inch vinyl release, north shore opens with warm idm pulses and tones, grandiose strings and vocal refrains create a huge sound that takes its unexpected breakbeat twist, reminiscent of british rave heroes orbital, whilst holding its own with its fresh and bright production.

kian t, a self-confessed analogue synth addict, steps up for the 6th secret reels release and with an ep on big bait already under his belt and one forthcoming on toy tonics, 2016 is looking like a vintage year for this italian producer. this ep is all about tough beats, warm & punchy synth lines and a few dusty vinyl samples thrown in for good measure. kian s production values are always on point, and these 3 tracks are no exception, instantly standing out from the crowd. on remix duties is man of the moment daniel leseman. his solo productions and remixes are firm favourites with a vast swathe of top djs. he is also one half of fouk, alongside junktion, who have absolutely taken over recently with releases on heist, razor-n-tape, house of disco and not to mention their own label outplay. daniel turns the tough syncopated beats of flughafen into a shimmering, funk-laden piece of house.

being pioneers with a new album created in no more than 6 months, the orb are bound to be exposed to fan expectations running high, while quizzical questions about little fluffy clouds and the good old times take over. it s especially jarring as the duo of accomplished soundsmiths alex paterson and thomas fehlmann has become known for its genre-bending curiosity and surprising sonic detours, exploring experimental soundscapes as well as club-friendly beats. the funny thing is, though, that whatever the context, you know a track from the orb when you hear it. case in point: cow / chill out, world!, their latest full-length offering - a masterful ambient album that branches out in many directions, but unmistakably sounds like the orb in either ear (and probably to your third ear, too).
