hulks of heavy industry lay strewn around, primitive yet shot through with a cracked futurist vision. red rusting mother loads could have lain there for years, a henge to post industrialism. time to open the sluice gate and slide the fetid bulk into the bloated brine of the next high tide. surfing out across the broth its bow breaks the water, sending a long lazy wave like treacle slapping the side of the wharf. slaughter-phonic noises pulsate from within the lead encased carburettor. on the blistered deck great knotted balls of chain lie rusting for ever, atrophied by age and despair

moscow label grow continues in fine creative form, seemingly not sticking to a motive or trend but rather concentrating on the strength of character within the music it releases. for the labels eighth release the artist is berlin based the marx trukker, who over the last 10 years has been developing his very distinct sound and recent output on labels like pluie/noir, the untold stories, and most recently noorden, have all been especially impressive. now on grow comes the 4 track vinyl * heavens crackling*, from the title one is expecting something awesome, and the album does not disappoint, right from the off, the first track: * a time well spent*, begins with celestial tones ringing out and the performance develops with great synth work, enlightened and very enlivening, spring is in step and something is beginning. the record continues at such a level throughout, overflowing with rich tones, warmth, and raw sounding percussion. in the second track, * all the boating still a tide to go*, deep warm bass and strings reverberate, as if amidst a hot harbours summer, then the ethereal synths return as magical breezes of cooling wind on a june day. on the bside comes the title track * heavens crackling*, the tone has cooled, there is an autumnal vibe, extended tones of an eerie but reassuring nature provide the ground, from under which a molten bass flows playfully. the final track, * i do anything but its so cold*, as the title would suggest, again time has passed, gone are the warm relaxed echoes of the the opening tracks, winter has come, and a strong percussive energy becomes the driving force of an especially deep and more introverted last track. in heavens crackling there is an uncanny understanding of time passing and representation of being, its present in the patience and performance within every track, and the effect of the album, which seems, like the seasons, to naturally come full circle, is for the listener indeed to experience a time well spent. top marks for the marx trukker!

since the turn of the decade token has by and large been an exclusive platform for the music of inigo kennedy, ¥ phase and ctrls. the belgian label has, however, remained on point by putting out formidable productions by rich oddie & ancient methods eschaton project, german powerhouse r¢dhåd and spanish heavy weights oscar mulero and christian wünsch as spherical coordinates, to some intercontinental fare by xhin and go hiyama. token, an iron clad operation continuously manufacturing unyielding techno, has always, deep within its impenetrable shell, had a soft spot for british techno. and following a reissue of mark brooms two, maintaining the glacial release rate of rodz-konez legend makaton, and welcoming surgeon to its fold with the thunderous fixed action pattern 12inch, the belgian label seeks out some fresh uk blood by inviting james shaw, aka sigha, to debut on the label with a stylistically sleek and suitably booming 12inch, our father / a better way of living.

one-take ambient instrumental travels, composed in strict committee by the trio of kevin blagg, william suran, and dante carfagna. recorded spontaneously in rural arkansas, bulging sub-woofers lope through fissures of skeletal banjo and pitched down pedal steel, while delicately arranged basins of synth and guitar reverberate, providing a steady stream of granular epiphanies. utterly faded, yet still possessing crystalline clarity, these twelve songs continually attain summits rarely reached within the span of four-minute transmissions.

drew mcdowall’s back story reads like a primer of psychedelic fiction woven into statements of the unbelievable, superhuman and outright insane. somewhere in the chaotic madness, comes an artist such as mcdowall with total control and absolute calm within his songs and artistic method.
dais records approached drew to solidify his standing as a leading electronic musician with the recording of new material neatly wrapped up in his debut album entitled “collapse”. recorded in 2015 in brooklyn, ny, mcdowall’s synonymous modular synthesizer compositions are augmented by obtuse sampling cut-ups and contributions from nicky mao (hiro kone / effi briest) rounding out the lumbering sequential knot work that has become synonymous with mcdowall and craft.

the fourth studio album „in the beginning“ by the critically acclaimed live band marbert rocel from leipzig. a place far away from everything, yet right around the corner. a vision close enough to touch, yet so far away. surrounded by keys, hatches, pots and small fragmented parts, marbert rocel lie down, discuss and dance through the winter of 2015. in this environment, in their studio in leipzig, the band ties together the songs, which first saw the light of day in a small spot enclosed by woods in the summer of 2014. ?each decision goes through every head, each chord is listened to a hundred times, from font to back and in reverse, each compromise: a triumph for the common cause. not pompoous string arrangements fuel this album with grandeur, but rather the notion of a consensual nod, which has evolved within marbert rocel over the years. ?“in the beginning” is the fourth album by marbert rocel, a living utopia and a tart kiss for every purist genre lover. nothing is hewn raw on here, rather sculptured delicately. percussion is tickling from synth pads like dew, and the songs welcome you like good friends. like tinkerbell, spunks voice guides through this strange familiar world, moving past big feelings and small gestures, to finally lead to where it all started: “in the beginning”.

already moving forward towards the 5th addition to their catalog within barely one year of existence. the rotterdam-based self reflektion imprint continues to expand their crew presenting a four-track sampler with music from the likes of logotech (manifesto/it), hiroaki iizuka (them/jp), remco beekwilder (self reflektion/nl) and lenson (paling trax/nl) - each showing their own perspective in techno music. from the trippy hypnotic *the 6th door* to the overwhelming *the circle* on the a-side, and from the straight banging *fraud* to the destroy everything attitude on *envy cross*, this release is just a small example of what is yet to come from this young label.
early support by dave clarke, tripeo, marcel dettmann, cleric, truss, truncate, mtd, zadig, dax j, stranger, len faki, nx1 among others.

nice price deal !!! cymawax explores the far reaches of our sonic galaxy with its next 12 inch only release, an exciting seven song set from evocative uruguayan-norwegian vocalist camilla luna. camilla is known as one half of luna & bazis on wahwah45s, with producer friend bhlb, and as vocalist for trulz & robins releases on eskimo and dance disorder’s ”metallic italic“ (bpitch control). her years of improvising vocals with musicians and djs at renowned oslo clubs like blaa, jeager, and the villa have given camilla a knack for accompanying electronic rhythms with haunting, tuneful melodies. for the open up ep, camilla joins producer bhlb for soulful and raw vocals recorded in one take over futuristic, bass-heavy, and delightfully offbeat tracks. the styles and tempos vary wildly, but the sound throughout is unified in a deceptively organic ex machina woman-meets-machine vibe. in the title cut, the almost tribal percussion summons exotic, benevolent spirits when combined with camilla’s temptatious crooning. the twisted r&b of ”wut r u gwonna do“ could almost be a secret collaboration with the likes of flying lotus. and ”f.o.c.- transmits a slightly intimidating techno stomp that would make all heads on the dance floor turn towards the dj and immediately take notice. these are just a few of the otherworldly audio nuggets found within the open up ep … there are more treasures to unveil. excavate soulfully.

"you wake from sleep, the door closes by itself and the walls run with slime and rain. a shadow moves, almost familiar, welcoming and simultaniously intimidating. the candle flickers and snuffs out. a noise. your torch is dying. something takes your hand. long fingernails and old skin. you mark the floor, chant the incantation. together. in the first of our split series we present two modern artists who’s imaginations know no limit. abstract drones, anchient machinery, neon cities within the shadow of the overfiend. heading up side a is the legendary cristoph de babalon, whose work in the late 90s on digital hardcore and his own cfet proved to be some of the most unique and timeless of the period. seperated by european boarders, the reigns are taken by triames, cutting the rhythms to explore techno as a more abstract concept, beautifully detailed work in between lustmord and emptyset. giallo disco is proud to present ‘invocation of the demon twin vol. 1′ possibly the most sinister and atmospheric release to date, and also one of our most special. art by eric lee."

the first self titled album from emptyset is reissued. released in 2009 the material formed the initial departure within emptysets ongoing exploration of time, structure and analogue technology. the album highlights the projects development and the foundation of their studio based production process, forming the first part of a tryptic spanning across demiurge, released in 2010 with subtext and the 2013 raster-noton album recur. the eponymous debut creates the first point within this narrative, initiating a dialogue between full frequency audio, noise and the emergent properties of sound, and the starting point for their contained sonic approach.

the anticipated second release from los angeles/seattle imprint slumdiscs comes in the form of a 12 inch from two artists who have each had a prolific year, refining their respective takes on dark electronics. side a features three tracks from italian producer morkebla (where to now?/reckno). he utilizes ethereal synths to create vast, mind expanding soundscapes just as suited for club use as they are for deep meditation. side b is provided by portland artist best available technology (astro:dynamics/working nights). contained within is an experiment in variations and reductions that rewards close listeners with a glimpse into the slow decay of self-contained sonic ecosystems. *go slumming* marks the first full length collaboration between the two artists and showcases the best of their respective styles.
