soul dynamite pull no punches with the follow-up to their first release and go straight for the jugular with some vintage mr lif fire a 45 splitting mr lifs seven-and-a-half minute return of the b-boy into parts 1 and 2 one on each side. thats not quite as weird as it sounds for on lifs critically acclaimed debut full-length from 02, i, phantom, the el-p produced return of the b-boy features a fade and then a complete change of beat change for the epic third verse. the first half is dark, space-funky boom-bap while the second half is er even darker, and a bit faster, space-funky boom-bap. either side though, you’ll be able to revel in such a-grade lyrical excoriation of race relations in the states as, theyre defacing masterpieces, just to blast to pieces/ what’s dope and hope that wed accept a wacker thesis. jesus! black vinyl.

tinfoil is the project of defekt and sunil sharpe. initially forged as a studio collaboration in 2014 (and later as a live show), the pair have since racked up an impressive catalogue of 12&#8243,,,s on their own self-titled label. tinfoil’s sound is unique in today’s scene, reflecting the versatility of both artists, plus a combined know-how of techno and electro. their music comes primarily from live studio jams, enforced by a desire to get quickly to the point in what they do. this is no surprise given the fast, technical way in which they each perform solo. for their debut album, tinfoil provide a varied but cohesive collection of tracks. following the intro’s epic synth blasts, they open with a bang through “caravan life” – a sinister, bassline-driven destroyer that builds and builds over a blend of claps, filter zaps and crying feedback. “beads” continues in a heads-down vein, this time with a more musical ebm type bass and knocking rimshots that mark the first appearance of sunil’s role-playing, haunting lead vocals

local talk broadens the palette further with new music by melbourne producer prequel. the a side plays host to freedom, a jazzy, undulating, mixed-up house sound that epitomises the spirit of prequel in one track. it s loose and swinging beat infused with hip-shaking bass, heavily percussive piano riffs and crunchy claps only quieten to make way for an unidentified vocal, who politely thanks you for listening and hopes you have a great time while you are here. it sits perfectly in peak-time territory as it does on a late night afterhours tip. on the flip is the ever evolving lefty . a track that starts off playful & dreamy and features some truly lovely keyboard work. after settling into the groove it takes a sudden and sharp left turn and enters a harder acid focused workout. percussive elements weave definitively in and out of the bass line as detroit influenced vocal cries echo throughout the background. this is the type of track you ll be sure to hear blasting out of speaker stacks on all open-minded dance floors around the globe. another accomplished and celebratory affair from prequel, it comes highly recommended.

artist: blasted title: -aelien ii- format: 12- label: aelien catalogue number: aev02 country: it genre: techno, industrial exclusive: yes price: 5.80€ asteroid records catalogue keeps expanding exponentially. label chief blasted brings you more of his purely analogue creations. italian producer continues series of eps titled aelien, and aelien ii is presented thusly – two new originals by blasted backed by two reworks from monolith records owner sirio gry j and paul birken – a one-man techno army from minneapolis. ethereal bassline will kick off the opener reborn, but the serenity of intro will be quickly interrupted by heavy-duty drum kicks, synthetic fields and high-reaching, chirping drops of reverberated acid. in his vision of reborn, sirio gry j leaves no window open for light – it s a grim, completely disarming ode to warehouse-held midnight sessions, intended to instantly penetrate the mind s defense system with oppressive kicks supported by tightly compressed low bass. next up is arkham – its resonant, uncanny bassline will give you the thrills while acid-soaked, syncopated kicks will keep providing the energy required for some boundaryless dancefloor frenzy. lastly, paul birken elevates arkham to a faster pace, straightening out the kicks, and making them more bouncy, while reshaping the bassline into a less sinister, more lively undertone

senso sounds collects together two of the key tracks from bossman oliver huntemann’s new propaganda album for this 12 inch release. senso has established itself as a key label in the techno scene and huntemanns ear for quality remains as sharp as ever. rotlicht is a precision-honed instrument of techno weaponry - hard as nails and featuring epic and mind-bending breakdowns. additionally the egyptian dj and producer raxon reworks the track into a deep and solid groover with plenty of attitude. ‘poltergeist’ is a journey into huntemann’s feel for sound design and space in a club context, beguiling with its seeming simplicity, before hitting home with shifting, evolving grooves and haunting synth blasts. the young russian maksim dark adds his own interpretation of poltergeist to the release, edging up the darkness a little more and producing a growling, tough techno workout that will go over big on a lot of floors this year.

jax dax returns with another ep of dark and epic rave-techno on the magic waves label. four cuts of guaranteed dancefloor devastation, from the in-your-face energy blast of jax 91 to the tweaked-out sensory stimulation of proto on side a to the political commentaries of the mayhemic sample-heavy anthem phreedom and the dark and delirious synth stabs of revenge of the scallies on side b this is a record no dj can afford not to pack.

markus fix & dorian paic come with three beautiful outstanding tracks to release the 006. markus already released on epilog in 14 and now he comes back with dorian, which is a huge honor for our little guild !! the first time we were listening to the tracks, we were blast away! this is exactly what epilog wants/searches/is. because their tracks are produced with love and smart, cleverly devised of experimenting and detail conscious…no tricks no gimmicks..

going further into techno territory, orphan swords come back with a three tracks ep called -license to desire- on paris-based desire records. following the -risk in the new age- ep (2014), this new hypnotic release is probably their most powerful so far, concentrating ebm, minimal techno gristle and industrial electronics. this ep clearly relates to previous efforts such as -caim- that has been described by xlr8r as -the grinding sounds and whirling blasts of white noise position the track directly in the realm of acts like sandwell district and richie hawtin s digressive and hypnotizing plastikman moniker.- make sure to check out the massive epic of asmoday and the textural sophistication of hooker .

laid down with authority by l/f/d/m are four no nonsense cuts blasting fresh air into that perennially en vogue phenomenon known as acid house. after stunning eps for glasgows prestigious optimo trax and clandestine traxx, an equally crushing full-length for kompakts ecstatic imprint, and two brain melting eps for diagonal with factory floors dominic butler as bronze teeth, it is an honor to have his sounds grace cgi with a release that sees him playing right for the heart of the dance floor.

the second coming. finlands otherworldly electro lords blastromen return to the dominance electricity mothership to deliver their much anticipated second longplayer. the eight new compositions featured on *reality opens* continue where their debut album *human beyond* left off in the year 2010 and lead straight to the next level. sophisticated arangements with epic synth melodies and atmospheres, haunting electro breakbeats and elaborate vocoderized lyrics prove once again that blastromen are a class of their own.

before birthing his blasted acid house identity bobby draino drummed for various synth-punked groups around vancouver, and some of that scorched earth live energy bleeds through the five primordial bangers comprising his vinyl debut, *brain drain*. tracked live through one channel of a space echo straight to his computer, draino’s mo is overdriven drum machines saturated with gritty fried acid, bass damage, and blown-tone sequencer patterns, fused into a radical and weird debased mutant house. the eps five tracks are the cumulation of two years of demo workshopping, tr-606 and 303 autodidacticism, warehouse party spelunks, etc, all savvy tactics for developing a shredding, progressively singular style, which bd has in spades. one of the most awesomely wrecked and raw silk slabs to date. a west coast wiz worth watching. mastered by eric hanson. edition of 430.

i came across j.cs music through the argentine label greener records on which he released the m-theory ep in early 2013. to this day, this 12inch has not left our record bag! i really like how j.c naturally blends a house feeling and groove with a techno vibe. in 2012, j.c started the ahd label together with his friend damian schwartz, releasing records from the likes of fred p, dj f, marcos cabral and epiphany. he also recently released a split ep with new york producer fred p on soul people music, as well as set the first release of his own label j.c records, which came out last month. i am very pleased to release his new record on deeply rooted.

geno presents its first record from label head, aaron hedges. aaron has been very busy djing in berlins best venues: kater holzig, prince charles, arena/badeschiff, and his bi-monthly residency at klangsuchts gegen kultur party. when aaron is not playing, he is been locked away in his studio working on a full length album and numerous forth coming vinyl/club oriented eps.
the title track, blasta, is a sleek and modern tech house stormer. blasta contains well blended and diverse influences, such as african jazz, jamaican dub, and german and french house. it is this unique and normally disparate genres of music and production styles that makes blasta a unique gem. the b side, collapsed caldera, is a break beat oriented, organic house song. guitar, harp, and vocals gently guide over complex yet natural percussive rhythms.

limited reissue of two disco-funk classics by 70s super-group - war, renowned for their masterful blending of soul, latin, jazz, blues, reggae and rock influences. on the a side you will find the 7.30 minute promo-only disco version of cosmic groover >galaxy<, a wonderful technicolour star-spangled space-hop of smooth horns and hooks, blasted into the outer-funkosphere by a deeply delicious phat bassline, devastatingly groovy piano riffs and great dubbed-out vocals. on the flip, we have the mighty 13-minute loft classic >city country city<, a subtle blues-influenced obscurity taken from 1972 album >the world is a ghetto<. riding high on a blissful sax solo and laced with hauntingly mellow strains of a harmonica, this epic tune takes you on a soulful smoky journey through a dreamy land of slo-mo jazz and disco. top quality!

this next instalment of psychemagiks edit series is a two sided journey through the cosmos and back down to earth. first on the countdown screen is way milky. leading the inter-play between instruments is a deep hypnotic bass that creates a throbbing atmosphere for spacy 70s keys and inter-galactic sound effects. hiding in the background are funky drums and a lead guitar that dons a space suit goes exploring. ready for blast off? side b. make it mellow, >make it mellow< is that warm-you-through balearic bliss that this dynamic duo are masters of. a delicious edit, this encapsulates the sound of a lazy summer afternoon. spacy synths and guitars interwoven throughout, the searingly syncopated solo shines in the spotlight. complemented by chunky bass and soothing vocals that ease their way into your head, this epic summery edit rounds off this b side beautifully.

the debut 12 inch by electronic diviner secret circuit - aka eddie ruscha (also of laughing light of plenty & food of the gods) - is now the physical property of earths people. on >nebula sphynx< analog synths & sequencers burn deep like a tincture of jack house and ham-fisted experimental attack music. the track features special guest circuit cole mgn (the samps, nite jewel), who gives the >sphynx< an extra crispy, cosmic crunch. ruscha keeps the meters peaking on >parascopic rope< with randy drum machine blasts and casio sk-wanderings. each 12 inch from beats in space features original artwork in considerate & serial form. bis002 12 inch features artwork by cf (aka - providence-based artist christopher forgues), purveyor the powr mastrs comic book epic and a finely-tweaked & tuned in dude.

italian-born luigi madonna made his name in his home town of naples with early eps released by loose records, kondens, analytic trail, mkt catching the ear of many established techno stars before his original productions and remixes for the likes of material and drumcode began punctuating a succession of plus 8 / minus boss richie hawtins dj sets in recent months. and so hawtin has now called upon the producer to step up for his debut ep on the plus 8 imprint, throughout which madonna explores streamlined and stripped back grooves of the sort perfectly befitting the outlook of the label.

kris wadsworth is an integral part of detroits new wave, and with its time he wears his citys heart on his sleeve, delving into the electronic music legacy of his home town and showcasing the range of his own talent. the epic 10-minute title track >its time< is secret journey through the citys pulsing underground. it begins with a primal techno kick that rings out from afar, distorted by distance and brimming with a sense of anticipation. a gravelly male voice demands to know what time it is, declaring that >its time for that dirty shit, that dope shit, that detroit shit<, and the beat then kicks in, gritty and purposeful. the track then does a surprising about-face, abandoning the fist-pumping techno for just high hats and vocals, and transforming into a new phase that nods to detroits other great legacy: electro. grimy electro breaks and wiry melodies are spun before evolving again into deep house, with a see-saw duet of pads, and double-time hand claps. kris own >move dat ass remix< of his track >det sound< takes the dubby 2010 original, and reworks it as a ferocious bass and drums workout with dizzy vocal arrangements and blasting sirens.

with their first co-production, dj / producer paul woolford and the irish-born producer team paul hamill and dee lievense aka psycatron deliver the prove that uk techno has not lost any of its energy or visionary power in the year 2010. after releases for carl craigs planet e label and r & s (psycatron) resp. 2020 vision or renaissance (paul woolford), the two tracks on the >thunder ep< are consequently moving to the next level. >thunder< impresses with extremely dynamic drumming and always changing percussion patterns. a rhythm body that is constantly in motion and will be enlightening every single dance floor with its hypnotic power dub. >cloud 9<, however, is stepping back at first and stresses an explicit chord techno structure despite its solid pumping elements before integrating some noise rave signals following the epic break after some 5 minutes, as it was totally naturally and thus letting the whole floor blast off. with such joy of telling and the eagerness to experiment in a musical way, you are really looking forward to the winter club season 2010/2011!

support from: surgeon, ben sims, luke slater, deetron, len faki, efdemin, technasia, mike dehnert, cio d or, ryan elliot, arne weinberg, vince watson, dan curtin, marcel hesse, franco cangelli, philip sherburne, perc, forward strategy group, matt o brien, the parallel. with a string of eps on prologue, mote evolver and komisch , samulis hypnotic tracks are seducing dance floors and djs alike. >kosmos< is samulis biggest track to date, with blasts of dry ice percussion and thumping, heavy beats underpinning a solemn voice intoning the tracks title. eerie sounds take >kosmos< to the outer limits, but kemppi keeps it rooted on the floor with a resonating bassline. >massa< meanwhile, is a raw warehouse number, its gained bassline and crashing cymbals playing host to an evil acid line that threatens to spiral out of control. peter van hoesen dissects and reconstructs >massa< using an intricate, stop-start arrangement and lithe, stop-start rhythms dipping and building until a heavy kick drops four minutes in. meanwhile >suunta< sees samuli back where he started, a heavy sub-bass and skipping percussion married with eerie vocals and atmospheric sound scapes. from his mind to ours. this is samuli kemppi at his best.

the second release of >vibes - new&rare music< brings rick wilhites long time friend and fellow 3chairs producer theo parrish to the table. theo gives us an adventurous ride like only theo can. starting out on a blues tip, this track morphs into a string laden jazz affair without missing a beat. epic stuff!
on the b-side its a one-way ride to chicago with ricardo miranda blasting on the car stereo. this relative newcomer, who has recorded for hour house is your rush and vega records, really outdoes himself on >urbanism<. as we cruise into town, heading straight to lakeshore drive, this track kicks off so soulful, yet so raw! it reminds us of the best days of prescription underground, on which this easily could have been released. addictive.

perc opens up the vertigo releases with his most singleminded track in years. based around a looping, lo-fi groove bcg is both a perfect dj tool and an unforgettable lead track. occasional blasts of distortion break up the rhythmic flow but this is no clichéd white noise soaked epic, just pure heads-down basement techno. first up to remix bcg is scotlands forward strategy group, who thanks to their releases on fsg and retail & leisure have soon won the support of such techno lynchpins as marcel dettmann and surgeon.

this release is a very special one for us… indeed, roskow kretschmann has been for years one of the music makers that surprised us constantly and teased our appetite, displaying his rich musical background inside of projects like jazzanova, kosma or sygaire. the tracks selected by dairmount (after hours hanging out in roskows sound lab over the years) are genuinely outstanding in his entire discography. they sound like no others and reveal rare aspects of his >musical persona<. this is why they are representing perfectly our quest for >hybrid club music< crossing the lines of the original spirit of house & techno. the ep opens with the futuristic techno soul of the time is now. perfectly named, the tune fuses with class, dusty jazz samples, obscure soul vocals, juicy claps and overwhelming detroit techno keys. the result is a timeless club monster for the deepest moments. the second track that blasted us is mono:poly rightly shaped for audacious djs that enjoy to play >special< things. the track is supported by a solid programming as fellow beatmakers like mark pritchard, recloose or kenny dope originated in the 90s, mixed with biting analogue pressure, crazy batucada elements & a magic breakdown for all the lucky ones that will play it in the sunrise this summer. and last but not least, one of the label mavericks, marlow created a hell of a remix by delivering a 10 minutes techno epic that would make our detroit godfather c2 blush of satisfaction. thanks to all of them for the fantastic music
