it�s been just a few months ago, rampa carved his last ep-notch into the keinemusik-release-tally. but here he goes again, delivering his second km-offering this year, an almost prophetically headlining track called �newborn soul�. this tune virtually is the score to the current situation of its creator. a lurking, tension building piece that�s coping without a kickdrum for more than 50 % of it�s running time, just to place it in floor-shaking boost in the exact perfect moment. a percussion and synthflavoured build-up somewhere between tool-characteristics and stylish peaktime-emphasis, that�s rising like phoenix from the ashes. �mascha� on the flip can be appreciated as a classic rampa. analogue sounding, washed out intro, irresistible tribal-grooves including analogue filter and delay-rides, percussive cushioning and folkloristic chants that will invoke nothing else but rowdy floor-ecstasy in this context.

the 3rd release by mutewax, various artsts 03, shows no signs of letting up. normally playing live, lyon-based pascal roeder smoothes out the rough edges with gentle yet subversive rhythms in �101,� a posh production that hints at what�s to come on his next mutewax ep. mutecell�s �vimana�, like the word itself, embodies multiple meanings at once - the track�s inherent mystery oscillates between emotion and intellect, ancient and modern, serene stillness and a bold drive into the unknown. relocating from denver to berlin, chad kaska, aka daegon, reinvents himself on his first vinyl release, �double speak.� the energetic track fights its way forward, advancing steadily against an antithetical undercurrent, finally assimilating it into its double-crossing rhythm. the founder of �hide & seek� in berlin, denise rabe hits hard out of the gate with her first vinyl track, �loaded.� building up energy, the track finally detonates and expands in phrenic waves across the dance floor.

long-time techno protagonist and figure mainstay johannes heil returns with a new 4-track package under his cryptik pseudonym. continuing the focus on a more leftfield, experimental sound, cryptik emerses the listener into a soundtrack world of rich sound, depth of field and versatile, changeable moods. by no means a simple club record, all four tracks offer subtle and rich musical content, each telling a story with beautiful melancholic melodies and rushes of endorphins. from elongated 10 minute journeys into the more reflective zones of heils techno world, snaking and building, showing off all the skills he collected over his 20 years-plus career at the top of his artform, crypik is a dance on the senses. from the cinematic elegance of >the gate<, or the bleep-laden epic of >radiance<, to the post-house piano led drama of >messenger< or the heavyweight synth swarms of >belief<, the ep is full of passion and life, capturing truly magic moments.

with his last ep offering on keinemusik, &me displayed himself once again as supplier of anthems that easily reconcile style with general floor purpose. you would think, such an universal and inexhaustible tune as this very �after dark� can only be a lucky hit. but no, he�s knocking out the classic material just like that. another example? catalog number km028, his brandnew �trilogy� ep. the titletrack on a initially places a synth arpeggio behind a kick that in dryness is hardly to excel. the beat of -trilogy- is then seasoned with rimshot patterns until the saturated bassdrum comes in and paves the way to the dancefloor. &me even refines his knack for stoic grooves on this jam and once again shows his sure feeling for suitable vocal features. sabotas croon comes devoid of big gestures and still knows the ropes to appeal to the collective mentality of a clubcrowd. on the flipside, �woods� is living up to its name from the very beginning. woody percussions are thumping within an almost subtropical scenario that�s frequently pervaded by mighty synth clouds. and once again, there�s an arpeggio sneaking in that at some point is taking the lead in this strictly instrumental affair. add a break building that will educe a floor�s complete euphoric potential without going for the rather mindless escalation and there you have it: a b-side that�s actually more of an a-competitor.

sometimes the best things in life come slowly, building up over a prolonged amount of time to reach a perfected state of euphoria. thats the ethos at play as josh winks ever-lasting ovum imprint release the breathe ep from ben hoo. the london based producer and multi instrumentalist draws on his long list of influences and tastes, weaving in classical structure, down-tempo beats and more into his eclectically flavoured tracks.

building on a series of releases on labels like true type tracks, illegal alien records, and abstract mechanisms, roberto espinosa launches his visionary rhythm designation with micelio: tecnocigalpa ep. drawing inspiration from the natural methods of decomposition and regeneration (essentially the power of mushrooms), vr�s first reference is a 3-tracker that combines social commentary with rhythmic analog and digital waves, reinforced with ceremonial shakers, percussion, and textures obtained by buried mics to propagate an elemental underground vibration, and integrates the sharpening of a machete with the hi-hats to provide the energy to cut through negativity.

latest wicked bass instalment comes from lost 1990s tapes of an underground estonian production group, hupnosaurus. side a opens with muru, a simple ballad with its stripped kicks and funky string bass that gradually reach a lo-fi acidic house condition with psychedelic swirls appearing every now and then. bookworms provides a remix treatment with thick, multi-layered overdriven & looped madness that strips the original to a simple bassline and occasional industrial stabs. on side b, always in n out starts out as unorthodox blend of a classic techno kick and speed garage percussion, but after a long building spacey pad breaks into a classic filtered house tune with transposed chords and cut-up vocals that runs until the end of the track. the last title track demonstrates heavy stomping kicks, swinging hats, familiar psychedelic whirls and a trippy, crushed vocal sample appearing out of nowhere questioning where am i?

stephane lefrancois & jameson gilvarry team up for the latest 12inch from the secret music label and find inspiration from a canine icon of space travel. laika is named in honour of the first cosmonaut dog, depicted here on the cover art and lefrancois and gilvarry convey her journey through an uplifting, rolling techno cut that doesn t seem to stop building. complementing the original is a remix from dantiez saunderson who strips down the groove, while giving it a swung, offbeat feel. staying true to the original, this version also introduces another layer of melodic synths, extending the journey, making it deeper and moody. the booming, clean low end and bouncy high end keep the groove propelling forward.

london based label akute offer up their debut release with a diverse journey through techno from the elusive artist dempa. the title track scabulous employs a pounding, deep sensibility combined with jerking rhythms and distant chords welcoming the trippiest of dance floors. on the flip, alphecca digs deeper still into the depths of bubbling, bass heavy techno, spanking the listener into a kaleidoscope of polyrhythms. bricage starts on a somber note with lush tape driven modular sequencers and acid squelches, building up to a full frontal speaker assault.

following his stunning apollo debut album *water* in 2013, anton zap aka anton barbashev, the russian electronic pioneer returns to the label for another foray into his highly distinctive, deep and ever evolving productions. without doubt one of the leaders of the burgeoning generation of muscovite electronic producers, *subculture* sees zap building on water s seismic achievements, expanding on his trademark luscious house sound into verdant new areas. once again, as we ve come to expect from an anton zap record, the production is impeccable, with sounds ranging from the blissed-out hip-hop stomp of *free fall* and crunching beats of *one week*, to the slender, mysterious jazzy breakbeat workout *incident* and dubby space-tech of closer *pauspapier*. a vital release from one of electronic musics most original and singular voices.

time for some double dutch action with apollonia�s latest release, which comes courtesy of makcim & levi. the twosome have already been picking up steam in their native holland, playing at many of the country�s best-known clubs over the last few years, establishing themselves as selectors in a class of their own. and their prowess as djs is equal to their talents as producers, with their very first ep appearing on raum musik and finding its way into apollonia�s sets. now they�ve got together once again to produce their second ep just for the apollonia guys�the �more lettuce� ep fits perfectly into the french label�s sound ethic, emitting a dark groovy energy throughout. for starters we have �more lettuce�, a gritty tech-driven monster on a mission. with its gravely percussion and air-raid siren-esque effects this is a surefire dance floor killer� listen out for the switch of pace, class. this is followed by �tegel�, presumably named after the airport in berlin. with this we get a kind of dingy berlin vibe, morose, grey yet ingrained with a bouncing energy that you just can�t help but bop your head to. on the flip side �thaiman� injects a slightly odd feel to the ep with warped, muted sounds meandering around a subtle bassline. finally, makcim & levi close up the ep with �dope erwt� another roller that will enchant the dance floor from the start, building into a bright, airy breakdown before continuing in its somber yet groovy manner.

the mighty geena is back on antinote with a new ep filled with deepest psychedelic goodness and spaced surprises. comes housed in a glorious printed sleeve! tip! side a starts with -tone loc- a heavy geenafied future classic, complete with signature celestial pan pipes and a deeper than deep bassline, together building in intensity with muted distant vocals adding to the sweet heady confusion. the next track -minus jam- is on a similar path of ecstatic disorientation, with spinning delayed glass toms supervised by the darkest dictatorial bass line confirming geena is a master of light and dark. side 2 continues with -box of exotica- where we are sent to a dreamy post blade runner musical world of traditional and futuristic collision augmented with beautiful and equally dark japanese stick music vocals. the last track -green resident- also walks the cosmic path found throughout this gorgeous ep, softer at first than the others, but the silky darkness soon seeps in bringing cosmic order to geenaland.
