madteo (aka matteo ruzzon) creates music whose understatement is overwhelmingly compelling. an italian native who moved to new york city in the early 90s, madteo has forged a production style that casts techno, house, and hip-hop in a gritty, stripped-down subterranean murk. his keen ear for unusual tonalities and his inventive tweaking of rhythmic tropes lend his music a functionality that feels anything but perfunctory.

upon the first listen, the work of fernando unfolds directly on your brain and leaves a long lasting feeling of drama. fernando pulichino is one those lucky guys who can pick up any instrument and write songs without breaking a sweat. he first caught my attention with a remake of the bauhaus classic kick in the eye released on redux in 2008. he then backed up this great start with releases and remixes for labels like international feel, under the shade, internasjonal and nang. he also very busy touring as part of the 2020 soundsystem band and he is also in silver city with julian sanza.
we decided to put together a long player to highlight the talents of our man in buenos aires. the construction of *float* reveals an astonishing wealth of musical ideas, brazen touches of new wave and icy modern disco sounds are evident throughout. low slung basses are also a theme that runs right through *float* whether it is the opening song *a place* which has a monster electronic bottom end or *from out there* which sits firmly on the punk funk dinner table, bass lines are clearly important to fernando.

while a series of projects are slated for release under the dirt tech reck banner, the first is the electric street orchestra. its inspiration is from those who are called street people. forgotten people from a forgotten city. it has also steeped in the detroit tradition of ignoring the notion of genre and taking a broad range of elements and inspiration to create something that is both new and familiar. bringing together a constellation of detroits sonic masters. dtr-01 takes urs mad mike and agent chaos, house music king theo parrish, hip hop/house percussionist dez andres, and rock/funk master guitarist duminie deporres, and joins them through the lens of jeedo�s vision of the future

nyc (via paris) based dj and producer sid vaga returns to nickodemus wonderwheel recordings with another 12 inch full of exotic deep house vibes sure to light up dance floors everywhere. it is an impressive follow-up to his genuinely well-received *brazuca* single from last year. on the a side, sid delivers *na na ye*, a driving cut with a pulsing bass line and hypnotic african chant that pushes the tune forward before getting flipped into a percussive section alongside deep and subtle synths. on the flip *manouche* can be found, a late night house tune with psychedelic balkan guitars and swirling gypsy vocal samples punctuating the track. rounding out the single, valencian producer oscar barila (plastic city) gives *manouche* a truly funky remix with a squelchy 80s new wave style bass line, thumping house beat, and irresistible synth work coming together for a real after-hours nightclub workout.

doubleheart, the collaborative project of two of scotlands longest serving creative individuals in electronic music - jd twitch (optimo espacio) and neil landstrumm. taking its name from title song *roots* - a sub heavy, tension building track that re-imagines jamaican dub poet michael smiths original from the seminal 1982 album �mi cyaan believe it - the ep as a whole works as an analogue exploration into the rawer side of dance music. working together allows these veteran producers to fuse their individual styles and musical sensibilities, combining landstrumms raw aesthetic and mastery of hardware manipulation with twitchs unrivalled knowledge of what makes a dancefloor tick. spawning from the depths of their imaginations and machines are 4 club-ready tracks brimming with anticipation and menace. although taking its inspiration from 80s electro and 90s acid & rave, the final result is far from a throwback to a halcyon, bygone era. instead, they have managed to carve out a distinctive sound the bleeps and bangs its way firmly into 2013.

garben eden aka peter uertz describes himself as a dancefloor inspired electronic musician. no surprise then that his debut on lampuka explores this environment but on both the lighter and darker sides of the 4:4 camp. tracks are brimming with what are often experimental sounds, yet with solid grooves and production techniques throughout. uertz has definitely honed his own recognisable quality and his live sets are keeping the toes tapping in his home city of düsseldorf, but with recent releases on anton zaps ethereal sound (russia) and us imprint ectasy records alongside vakula on �

anticon founder and instrumental rap innovator alias is reborn with fever dream, his sixth full-length for the label. alias acclaimed 2008 lp resurgam represented a culmination of the sound he had been chasing the previous five years -- a bewitchingly blue combination of icy atmosphere, haunted melodies and hard drums. he cleansed his palate with 2010s fallen house, sunken city, the modern boom-bap masterpiece he produced for emcee b. dolan, and when it came time to return to the alias oeuvre, he was ready for a reboot.

diva is a project which explores the outer regions of technos psyche - combining the trippy sensuality of chris & cosey with the brutalist analogue aesthetic of the likes of robert hood or liasons dangereuses. inspired by the vocal histrionics of strobe lit sirens such as loleatta holloway and jocelyn brown, diva calls on the protean roots of basement club music. lead track >paris stabbing< is a stunning excursion into motor city madness, abstracted disco vocals clash with a broken digi-arpeggio and hooverish bass break down, whilst the flip side >but i ve never< imposes a detuned synth siren over an industrial bass sequence and sp1200 piano stabs to eerie effect. also included is the >paris stabbing (beats)< which pares down the original, adding detuned melodic percussion into a minimalist after hours tool.

jack dice is a new project from john twells and walkmaster flex, now releasing their debut ep for modern love. john twells, amongst very many other things, runs the type label and has been producing music of various different disciplines and varieties over the last 15 years. although hes never released anything on modern love before, hes a long time friend and associate of the label. walker is the manager of main attrakionz and has been djing with them for the last couple of years as the official green ova dj. jack dice is fuelled by an interest in bass, twells being a car audio nerd and walker having an obsession with 90s southern rap music. these are their first tracks produced together, who know what might follow.
