columbus, ohio may not be spoken of in the same glowing terms as detroit when it comes to 90s techno from the mid-west. however, the columbus-based 21/22 corp label was responsible for some of future primitive s favourite techno from this era. we ve tracked down the multi-genre president and production manager behind 21/22 corp, charles noel, for our next release. formed of two exclusive productions, this archetype 12- is the essence of techno at its most individual.

reaching its 15th release, amphia sees the return of cezar lazar�s double ep, intuitively called �archetypes�. known for his innovative approach both behind the decks and productions, cezar�s creative alter-ego enacts a variable puzzle with hard-edged sonic pieces laid out over five tracks, each with their own distinct acoustic palette. side a holds �equtime�. this side-long track envelops a stripped-down melody with perforated rhythmical pads, fleshed out with disconnected threads of vocals. side b is dedicated entirely to �badgervox�. displaying a weighty bass section alongside the shuffled percussion work, its intricate melody is integrated smoothly creating a unique soundscape. �thicken court� holds the first half of side c. sharp in its composition, it holds an assorted percussion ensemble and a collection of fizzy waveforms. they complement a thunder-like bass protagonist that holds the center stage. we continue with �boe dark�, where textures and sharp tones grow in layers upon layers creating tension. the apex is reached when modular timbres are hindered by sparse piano patterns, completing this electro-acoustic scenery. on the flipside, �wedmar� holds the key to our puzzle with its accurate four-to-the-floor feat. with a series of programmed overlapping organ vibes, the sound feels both piercing and intense, creating a sort of sensory impairment. �archetypes� displays cezar lazar s gentle subtleties and fluency in different dialects of idm.

well known archetype with four techno tracks

unknown archetype aka roxy tripp & oliver kucera debut their visceral experimental techno for r&s on this four track ep.
unknown archetype is a collaborative project between roxy tripp, a british conceptual artist & music producer, and oliver kucera a czech born producer & live performer, residing in the netherlands. with an extensive background of solo projects in the underground scene, the duo began their collaboration together as unknown archetype in 2015. the tripp ep is an abrasive, visceral ep of electronic body music underpinned by themes of jungian psychology, symbolism and mythology. the industrial tech funk of lead track �voyeurism� kicks things off - skittering breakbeats, squalling filters and blistering snares pile-driving the listener into ecstatic submission, while �tripp� see the duo employing sizzling bursts of white noise and caustic percussion over a jagged rhythm box figure. matters are pared right back for the rigid austerity of closer �the serpent� - the dubbed out lead stab quivers over a strobing 909 drum groove and scything cymbals. effortlessly balancing deep late night sounds with a unique character and intricate headphone centric programming, the tripp ep is a fitting and welcome addition to r&s�s storied catalogue.

primary colours is back with the last release in the second colour series. this release is start studded by by the two fantstic artosts that have joined our family. it was their approach and faithful reproductions that we named this release. archetypes are a collectively-inherited unconscious idea, pattern of behaviour or thought that is universally present in individuals or a recurring symbol or motif in art or mythology. it is this exact thing we see here in this release, a train of consciousness with three distinct personalities.

dumb unit returns to the race with a powerful new ep by italian heavyweights clockwork & avatism. revealing their skill at collaboration the four tracks on the archetype ep are a compelling take on the increasingly musical side of techno. both slow and brooding, yet with the direct propulsion needed to move bodies, the archetypes ep is a moody thriller perfect for the warm nights approaching

!! new koze !! seeing aliens unquestionably is a banger, its bass riff snaking around your body like a python, its high-drama strings, pianos and outbursts of noise designed for maximum crowd pressure release. but, again, it sounds like nothing else, and its dynamics and twists unfold over eight and a half minutes in ways that will mess with your head every time no matter how many times you hear it. the exclusive b-side track, nein könig nein (no king no!), meanwhile, is slightly gentler on the face of it: it�s less about sonic pressure, more about hip-shaking syncopation. but it too tells strange fairytales in its peculiar and brain-tweaking accumulation of detail, and though you�ll hear archetypal sounds from the heart of house and disco in it, every last one of them becomes new and otherworldly.

zaki dee, rob mello and luke solomon present heaven and earth! we know, we know, the current re-issue wave of classic house music platters is a bit much - especially the unlawful ones with photocopied artwork. but that is already one reason to do it the proper way. the other one is the fine aural pleasures luke and the likes delivered on this one back in 1995. originally released on the seminal prescription imprint through the channels of chez damier and ron trent, the british heaven & earth project is a rather special one. while space and time (here available in a previously unreleased re-edit that gets by without the peter-daou-like-solo) pays tribute to the archetypal and contemplative sounds of damier/trent, prescription every night draws of the attention to the formative years of dance music, i.e. disco elements (see old azuli records for further reference). these very notions havent lost an iota of their usefulness and veracity, nor have they ever left the rb record bag. re-mastered and re-cut with care by lupo at d&m for your enjoyment and re-released on love made running back records. deep dub disco house!

berlin based techno titan frank muller adopts his beroshima alias for a new four track ep that is already been hailed by the likes of marcel dettman and laurent garnier. first emerging in the nineties, muller has since become a techno great who has played from asia to south america and beyond. he�s had plenty of underground hits on the likes of cocoon and soma, and held some key residencies over the years. always one to command your attention with his multi layered grooves, this ep features an old juan atkins sample �buy some shit from detroit� that has been part of beroshima�s live sets for years. excellent opener �encounter� reflects a recent idea jeff mills and muller had to produce tracks together for a not yet produced sci-fi movie. it is an eight-minute astral techno trip with smooth, driving drums and plenty of intergalactic synth lines. �the passion of lovers� transfers the organic beroshima style into 2018 and shows off frank�s passion for spaced out electronica. it�s a brilliantly bumping cut with lithe synths and melodies adding that soul and colour as it races through the galaxies. the iconic �buy some� with the atkins sample then surges into the future with icy hi hats dancing over rubbery drums. the warped synths take the lead and bring a real sense of off kilter energy to this most timeless bit of techno. last of all is the fantastic space mix of �encounter� which is dreamy and cinematic with exquisite keys and pads colouring in a huge night sky as the drums drive things along. this is an archetypal techno ep filled with cosmic colours and serene emotions.

exzellente remix-ep von lorenzo senni, bekannt für seine dekonstruktionen von 1990er trance-archetypen. hier legen gleich drei renommierte künstler eigenwillige reinterpretationen seines klassikers -xallegrox- aus 2017 vor: der mega angesagte detroiter dj stingray (tresor, clone, diagonal), der gebürtige augsburger florian hecker (editions mego, pan, rephlex) und das italienische vorzeige-duo tale of us, dessen remix dem 12- vinyl als download-code beiliegt.

it is said that every generation casts its mind back to a previous era in times of crisis, the resources that will allow us to decode the questions of our moment may lie in the myths of another era. le renard bleu, the new musical and cinematic collaboration between lafawndah and composer midori takada, and filmmakers partel oliva, takes a cross- generational echo as ground zero for recovering a crucial myth for uncertain times: the blue fox. as transmitted by takada, the fox appears in both ancient senegalese and japanese folktales as the trickster archetype, belonging both to the heavens and to the earth, the fox is the agent of chaotic good, shaking the world up when its energy has become stagnant. above all else, the fox is famous for its cunning nature.

derek s music instantly takes the listener on a midnight drive, cruising the grand river avenue through detroit. derek carr s ability to create soulful melodies that effortlessly wrap themselves around bouncy basslines and elegant beats is not only classy � it s classical. derek carr is not from the detroit though.. he s an irishman through and through, born and bred in westmeath, about 3400 miles from the state of michigan. yet he absolutely nails it! after two decades of crafting his own sound with analogue synths and samplers with the music culture of motor city as an inspiration, derek carr doesn t sound like anyone else. all the archetypical detroit sounds are there � from the robotic bleeps in binary systems to the moody strings of metro city � but derek carr uses them to create a primarily club oriented vibe, uplifting and positive.

the artwork for this album is made by abdul haqq, the legendary visual artist responsible for a great number of classic covers for artists and labels such as juan atkins, derrick may, transmat, drexciya, carl craig, planet e and underground resistance...

is / was is incredibly proud to introduce the enigmatic, insanely gifted, man-of-many-vibes himself, teakup. hailing from ohio, our man is yet another in a long lineage of shut-in freak-beat enthusiasts from the humble state. with a style referencing the melodic funk and swing of titonton duvante and the broken, advanced-beat wizardry of archetype, teakup steps into this proud heritage with a 4 tracker of various vibes sure to sate even the most discerning of dweebs. �lose my mind� is of the swung and jacking nü haus variety popularized by the will & ink lads. �shimmer� soothes with soft pads and throbbing bass while simultaneously spanking you upside the head with cracking snares and corrosive claps. �darkcore 2020� indulges in sci-fi breakbeat antics, earning the much sought-after status of �banger�. lastly, �i don�t fkn kno� slinks along in the timeless tradition of low-slung n� swung house groovers. welcome to the sound of teakup.

lena willikens is the kind of artist whos only capable of following one path her own. in many ways, shes the archetypal selector, an unpredictable dj who often eschews all notions of genre in favor of what she describes as different temperatures, different time zones, different moods and a healthy portion of chaos. although her methods have certainly proven effective on the dancefloor, willikens also refuses to be bound by its traditional limitations.
