dj legend, producer icon, avant-gardist, pioneer. only few influenced the music scene of the past 28 years as deeply as pascal feos. he is responsible for 4 solo albums, over 200 releases and hundreds of remixes. still his hunger for sound experiments is satisfied by no means. although it has been a bit quiet around him in the past few months, you might rather call this the quiet before the storm. feos wouldnt be feos, if it wouldnt have been for him to have his fingers on controllers and knobs on a daily basis, creating and tweaking new sounds. finally the time has come. pascal is back, and he gentlemanly wrapped up a present for you, marked departed 2 return. what is in it? not only feos fifth album, but also a musical answer to the question what he has experienced and what he had to go through in these three creative and self-reflecting years of his musical hiatus.

hardly a rookie these days – perhaps more of an intrinsic part of the great british renaissance and current techno climate, tom dicicco brings his new label run out run to the table with a superb 1st release. treading a more layered path than on his previous outings, tom shows his teeth here with brilliantly creeping, menacing riffs at the fore while retaining the house and dub sensibilities in the rhythm section that have already gained him much support – certainly something for everybody here on this worryingly confident own label debut!

after their hot contributions for treats vol. 2, session victim prove indeed that they are on the roll with a funkafied and no holds barred ep that pays homage to their hip-hop roots. move me so starts rather simply, with just a guitar and a vocal, but you can hear a moving bassline and distant rhodes chords creeping up from the background. two minutes into the track and theres still no kick drum, although the level of excitement produced by the magnetic groove is almost unbearable. a filtered drum break finally gives way to a four to the floor beat that should turn any dancefloor into a frenetic party. the track builds with high energy, as the pounding bassline seems to be directly lifted from an early 90s hip-hop classic. the breakdown sees the vocal/guitar loop being played differently until the second part shifts gear and brings more surprises in the mix with the intro rhodes chords coming in and out.

patterns returns to the vinylscene with another banger for the techno djs who like to play out the vinyl! 4 pumping high energy tunes by some big shot names from the scene. christian fischer / mark broom / stefano noferini & spektre!

kolortown is probably the best deep dub act in the world right now, drawing heavy influence from oldschool reggaedub combined with contemporary musical expressions and technology. this ep is a masterpiece in dubtricks, layering & tapebouncing and contains plenty of variety in moods, everything from cluboriented 4/4 steppers to late night chill out when the lights are out. this release shows the true skills of producers xoki & hieronymus here brought to a wider audience, and is comparable to the likes of massive attack and portishead. dont miss out on this part 3-its quite extraordinary!
