the europe-centered techno scene might be thinking: where is techno in a city as vast, dynamic and electric as new york? it’s alive and well, and keeps growing through aptly-named new york trax. founded in 2015 and based in brooklyn, new york trax is an outlet for new york music, by new york artists, in new york city. new york trax storms out of the gate in 2016 with a crushing release from none other than richard hinge.

ep opener >air rising< is melodic cut sublimely crafted over stripped back drums, tranquil drawn-out keys and soft pads with a resonating vox that seamlessly dominates to dish up a an emotive start. >carpathia< oscillates into life through bouncy tones, shifting percussion and lively atmospherics to build towards a powerful crescendo to finish the healthy three-track single off in fine form. novio dub tribes steps in to somehow cultivating the original over rippling drums, warped atmospherics and shimmering synths, the culmination of which is a dubby fusion of sounds geared towards the dynamic dance floor.

certainly not in the case of junior boys, who’ve readied a new album, big black coat, via city slang. a strikingly energised and intuitively dynamic set that reconnects them to their techno roots without sacrificing their soulful pop nous or riding a revivalist wave, it’s also shaped by what jeremy greenspan and matt didemus have been doing in the five years since their last release.
