* seasoned shogun duo technimatic are proud to celebrate 10 years working together with the release of their 3rd studio lp ‘through the hours’. born of time spent behind the boards, on the decks and travelling the world honing their craft, this is their most profound work to date. their first single ‘sometimes’, ‘goodbye kiss’ and ‘all our yesterdays’ are loaded with floor filling nostalgia while the tempo changes of ‘recurring dream’ and stand out ‘resolution’ are thrilling explorations away from the pair’s trademark liquid sound. technimatic fans will rejoice at the sight of previous collaborators appearing. jono mccleery’s devastating ability shines on ‘the nightfall’, while ‘weightless’ ft lucy kitchen is vintage, sublime drum and bass. matt wilson also joins the project as ‘holding on’ finds its feet firmly on the dance floor revealing a fresh side to their production skills. just looking at the three vocal tracks highlights the passage of time in the technimatic sound, seamlessly manoeuvring from classic to current. the grit and swagger of ‘true believer’ matched with the hypnotic lull of ‘let it fall’ give the album a conscious edge to satisfy all tastes. ‘through the hours’ moves harmoniously through sonic timelines appealing to both new and old school heads simultaneously. lastly and most importantly, the music is fantastic. the technimatic sound is as rustic as it is contemporary and after some time away, it’s clearly well worth the wait.

charles duff and daniel fisher have known each other since well before their respective forays into dance music. they serendipitously crossed paths at some point in the early 2010s with mutual friends in the nyc club kid scene. shortly thereafter they realised they both were keen to ditch the vapid hipster bullshit that had fueled their early careers thus far in order to pursue something pure: techno. mind you, this was at a time when it was not terribly cool to be into underground dance music. if anything, they both were greeted with massive skepticism from their peers but that didn t ultimately deter them. both went from relative obscurity to regular slots at berghain. and for two american kids musing in a pathetic bedroom studio, this was nothing short of a dream come true. a prophecy had been fulfilled. the two tried their hands at numerous attempts at collaboration over a 5 year period but nothing seemed to stick. most of it sucked horrendously according to them. but not on this occasion. the stars finally came into alignment and they were able to execute a concise group of tracks that finally made sense together. which brings us to threads. threads, an homage to the uber-dystopian bbc docudrama from the 80s, sums up their dynamic approach to tracks. it s an alienating, sinister take on techno that somehow manages to not fully lose faith in dire times. much like life today.

meda fury welcomes tom wrankmore aka eliphino to the imprint for a stunning ep of thunderous breaks, 303’s and serious sub-bass pressure. hailing originally from the leeds, but with wider travels to settle down in both london and berlin, wrankmore’s music embraces hip-hop, rave, and uk garage. he now serves up a pungent confection pitched between the hessle audio crew, joy o and demdike stare’s most recent efforts. having released heaters for brownswood and hoya hoya over the years, eliphino now debuts as part of the meda fury family with the realistic sex ep. wrankmore has been locked away in his studio for the last 1.5 years, abstaining from gigging and releasing records to knuckle down and produce, emerging with a new darker edge and a much more hardcore sound. tom explains: “the theme of the ep is trusting your intuition in an information flooded world. i’ve collaborated with visual artists tom pounder & jon harris who have created two videos for the release, one for disc rhythm and one for realistic sex.- meda fury boss nick williams, “tom s new music epitomises to me what modern club tracks should sound like - wild, energetic, deadly. he’s discovered his own dark new world of sound fusing breakbeat, acid, speed garage and even industrial stylings”
