shaw cuts enters the site of crime with its first release called ‘have sword, will travel’. the ep includes 4 techno assassins – two tracks by the label founder himself lachriz, who introduces his shaolin moniker ‘farron’ and 2 remixes by the argentinian boxer jonas kopp. ‘equinox’ opens the slaughter with shaking break-beat punches in combination with atmospheric pads surrounding the drum jabs. ti lung would have been pleased. the track ‘apo-g’ comes in sly and chases the enemy with dirty drums and menacing distorted sound spheres that will morph the bad guys into dead guys – throwing star style. the b-side gets taken over all the way by jonas kopp, who brings up two different remixes of ‘equinox’ that can easily cut off the rival’s extremities like a sharp guillotine. and the carnage just begun

swedish underground powerhouses mr tophat & art alfie return to bass culture with their second ep for the label after the phenomenal success of their first outing, which picked up strong support from across the scene, particularly from ricardo villalobos. this time around, they drop two hefty slabs of disco-tinged house imbued with their own distinct flavour throughout. ‘dub the rub’ pumps along with an infectious groove, tough percussion powers along with a rolling bassline. watch out for the vocal-led breakdown midway through, killer! on the flip, ‘fnatt’ works around a more traditional melodic house motif, tender and bright with a lush b-line and captivating vocals made to move your body and soul.

bon voyage is an ever-shifting constellation of musicians led by paris-based producer and bass player adrien durand. durand was first spotted in 2009 by jamal moss, boss of renowned chicago label mathematics recordings, which released durand s solo effort (impersonnel naviguant) under the moniker les aéroplanes. that first record, done using a very academic house music setup consisting of an eight-track cassette recorder, a drum machine, a cheap analog synthesiser and an even cheaper sampler, caught the attention of such dj s as beautiful swimmer and toby tobias. for his bon voyage project, durand recruited drummer nicolas ballay and keyboard player/engineer maxime kosinetz. while opening for legendary italian dj daniele baldelli, the band caught the attention of chicken lips s steve kotey, who released bon voyage s first two records (sorciers des aéroports, l imposture) on stendec, a new imprint created for the occasion

he strode towards a long drink.

after big success of the first classic series by k alexi shelby, technorama is back with another great package. we started the classic series featuring tracks that we love, bought, played out and which we have the feeling more people should know about them. for this second, it is a great honor for us to welcome such a living legend, a pioneer from the detroit house scene terrence parker and the chicago veteran ellery cowles. this project includes two secrets cuts and timeless moments of detroit house & chicago techno.
on a side: *welcome to southfield*, a massive and very demand house instrumental track from terrence parker. released in 1997 on studio k7! records and issue from his *detroit after dark* lp.
on b side: *madball*, previously released in 1998 on dafunk! records, our favorite secret weapons, a real masterpiece of chicago jackin techno by ellery cowles (black nation, djax up beats, synewave).

it’s not often that a breakthrough producer manages to cause major hype after just one release but when that artist is from the uk, putting out a brilliant ep on moodymann’s mahogani music, you start to realize how it happened in dan shake’s case. now its time for dan to build on this incredible start and from the way things are looking it’s safe to say it’s all going in the right direction. another rising star from the uk is wolf music regular medlar who has been making serious waves the last 5 years. remixes for the likes of glenn astro and disclosure have all helped put him in the spotlight and his debut lp sleep from 2013 delivered in spades. so when the news that these two were joining forces for a collaborative project reached us here at d.o.g we wanted in on the action.

lakehead returns to nabla for a second release by evolving his rendition of unearthly ambient pads with a tasty three track ep. two parts testimonial, one part interpretation, this record emulates ‘90’s groovy techno with modern melancholic keys tantalizingly hovering over fog drenched surfaces. the a-side sees us start with ‘1991,’ an assertively murky tune that immediately intoxicates with the introduction of keys that manage to invigorate and remain melancholic. following bewitching synth work, a throbbing energetic bass line pieces this number together while releasing suppressed emotion. a true anthem! on the flipside, nabla welcomes zaphod salmon to the fore with a well-taken, minimalist approach in remixing ‘1991’. by sparingly using snippets of hi-hats, claps and snares, zaphod creates formidable tension in an onrushing build up. this mixture of harmonic sounds sensibly reintroduces key elements of the original in a sensation shrouded in suffocating haze. ‚workout trax’ maintains the straight-faced groovy vibe with intermittent bleeps and filthy cymbal work whose jacking undercurrent will keep your feet moving. with its rhythmic nature beat, ‚workout trax’ represents machine funk at its finest. like the moon the strength of its gravitational pull will create a powerful tide swiping unsuspecting subject towards the dancefloor, whetting your appetite by precisely ending when the hypnotic swirl begins to form

after a strong first release contort yourself returns with events at the fatal party which comes over more as a description than a title, brimming with a bubbling sense of tension and fear. hamburg duo fallbeil kick things off in impressive style with a crunchy acid monster which twists and turns followed by two killer proto-techno cuts from legendary french industrial band die form from their 1985 tape hurt. here we find ourselves in a unsettling scenario with metallic voices scowling over clanging machines and guitar feedback in an unhinged way. the mysterious slugbug (l.i.e.s./russian torrent versions) starts the flip with goback, a creeping acidic beast moving unstoppably forward as a reverberating voice ripples throughout. any calm is then shattered by ibm a.k.a. jamal moss whose remix of die form hammers home a tough seven minutes of mangled synths, bubbling acid and thundering drums. a highly recommended, intense journey.

droid behavior’s luis flores comes through with a 2-track ace for the label’s 20th vinyl release, static forces. negative pressure (a1) starts off with a brewing undercurrent of bass and hypnotically builds into a dizzied cavern of competing sonic forces and reverberant whispered utterances. surface tension (b1) takes an alluring shaken groove and reveals its drive as its elements make their way to the front, slowly pushing the track’s rhythmic intensity. two tracks for long play and lost minds. silk screened jackets on black sleeves.

the furnace series is a two-part compilation of music inspired by a special room in the montreal apartment shared by booma collective from 2012-2014. when venues to throw parties became scarce, booma used this room leading to the fire escape in the back of the apartment known as the furnace as a space for small gatherings among close friends. the furnace series is a collection of memories of those intimate parties and impromptu jam sessions. part one features four tracks by booma collective founders and friends, beginning with psyche, a hypnotic, dub-techno inspired composition with oscillating, piercing sounds, evoking whistling flurries. solparas garden in the furnace echoes the hollowed-out concrete architecture of the furnace itself, filling up then emptying its atmosphere with layered drum machines and ghostly voices. cf01 is the result of feedback experimentation carefully arranged into a slow tribal jam. oren ratowsky. producer of booma collectives first vinyl release, rounds off the b side with gorby, an eleven and a half minute exploration of his mastery of analog synthesizers.

• very limited vinyl pressing features solid remixes from carl finlow and pip williams
franck collin, aka fleck e.s.c, is an electro artist originally from france but currently living in tokyo. franck’s earlier experience playing bass and drums in bands and his love of horror, science fiction and b-movies, naturally drove him to the electro scene. with additional influences rooted in new wave, contemporary, techno and ambient, fleck e.s.c tries to avoid the clichés of electro, leaning more toward the spooky side of horror and sci-fi and the cheap retro sounds in tribute of the movies he loves. never too serious or pretentious and always striving for fresh sounds, fleck e.s.c’s music aims to distract the body and the brain.
his ‘nice guy ep’ comprises two killer new tracks that emphasize this sound, the dappled ‘what r we waiting 4’ and the ominous tones of ‘nice guy’. remixes of the latter come from london modular’s pip williams with a sweeping rendition, alongside the mighty carl finlow who also adds his magic touch...

for their latest vinyl release, the tink! music label looks to lisbon and the enigmatic duo gatupreto, whose modo di trabadja 12betrays all manner of influences that seep beyond the realm of house music. in their own words, the art gatupreto generates is simple, unpretentious and sincere, it owes to the classic rave vibe as much as to the rawness of hip hop as much to the sunset of cape verde as to the sunrise of the lisbon riverside.this manifests itself in two understandably diverse productions from gatupreto with the heavily percussive workout of vahagn s closing remix of grandi loba of particular note.
