following the success of their last release, xandrus >fading dreams ep<, which enjoyed notable support from (arpiar) stalwart rhadoo, nastia, anthea and yaya, to name but a few, vinyl only imprint ldn will return to the shelves in early december with their third 12inch installment. this time around label boss scott kemp will be providing the goods, in the form of a four track ep, aptly named >1988<, the year of scott s naissence. featuring three exquisite original tracks accompanied by a sublime remix from romanian producer nu zau, scott kemps years of experience honing his productions skills are laid bare from start to finish, as he continues to assert his affinity for stripped back, percussive driven techno with this pulsating composition. the ep debuts with >1988<, which feels evocative with its atmospheric vibe and slower pace, coupled with its deep bass, hypnotic synths and spacey sounds. in contrast, >konman< is more alert and its dynamic rhythm invariably encourages one to dance, as the latter part of the track welcomes warm and bouncy synths, complimentary to its percussive elements.
(10 inch clear vinyl) firmly entrenched in techno s haziest alcoves, every new record from denise rabe is as punishingly hypnotic an experience as it aims to penetrate the deepest laid of your cerebral zones.
i became aware spontaneously, as did you. i want a place here. something to give meaning in the absence of sensory experience. brought to your attention for purpose

in the late 80s i started listening to uk radio stations when i was a little kid and i instantly fell in love with the acid sound and rave movement that was portrayed on those uk dance shows. when i got old enough to attend clubs and warehouse raves, to experience the movement first hand, it was a nobrainer for me that the music and the lifestyle was my call. lately…. in my dj sets and when producing music… i have been time travelling back to those days. back to how i remember the music i fell so deeply in love with and that is exactly what you hear on this “done/undone” release. for the “done” track i teamed up with cari golden to have a female spoken word and a great message to build the music around. i always prefer to do original vocal recordings rather than using samples. cari understood 100% what i was after and i love the lyrics and execution by her. the spoken word is centered, very clear and deep to contrast the constantly building intensity of the acid patterns and thumping beats. “undone” is instrumental and has a more straight forward flow to it. it’s quite simple although the shifting groove patterns might surprise some. i was torn between two different acid patterns and decided to drop one of them as a surprise change. playing the track in clubs i quickly learned that the change of dynamics had a great effect. both tracks have been wrapped in dark-themed chords and atmosphere. both tracks have my take on the sound i fell in love with years ago and obviously still love today. i hope you like what you hear.
three years incubation, visionquest compadre antonio thagma returns to follow up his evergreen ‘leather soul’ ep. taking off where his molten constructions left us in 2015, it’s another kinetic experience where the groove is full, and only, focus… and the one and only ricardo villalobos is on hand for a genuinely beautiful remix. ‘sferikum’ instantly locks you in: upbeat with a subtle strut and a maze of psychedelic textures, this one is all about the rolling subs that underpin every element, bringing everything together with fluid motion. it’s backed by the broken electroid charm of ‘everything i wanted’. spacious, pensive and laced with an array of dizzying details from sly acid sinews to crafty drum variations by way of a sudden heart-stopping breakdown. truly, this lives up to its name. complementing these two exceptional originals, and celebrating antonio’s return to visionquest at the highest level possible, villalobos has been recruited for remix duties. a key staple of his sets this summer, it’s a singular 13 minute trip rich in subversion, twists, glitches and surprises. but, as always, the groove is the full, and only, focus. welcome back antonio…
