percussive drive and rugged atmosphere defines the fifth rashim 12-inch, where the body takes over the mind. this esoteric style not previously presented by abdulla rashim, confirms his ability and talent to further confirm hes someone to trust. exploration leads to innovation, and this is a prime example of shaping atmospheres into different styles.

the fifth modern cathedrals release by altstadt echo seeks to exhume genuine, complex, and often contradictory human emotion from dead samples and broken beat structures. throughout the 1905 ep, the artist crafts melodies that embody a tension between nostalgia and frustration, supported by carefully textured and relatively functional percussion. the remix of dry despair by abdulla rashim (ar) strips the original of its lofty chords, instead pursuing a focused and bone-dry experimental techno approach. in contrast, the remix by stave combines elements of the original’s drifting atmosphere with violent industrial percussion.

bassianis 2nd12-inch release is out on november, 21. it will be 4 track included release, contribution from artists avi musaifi, abdulla rashim, varg, newa.

the first ep from abdulla rashim on his northern electronics in almost three years is leaning towards a new territory for him. taking his explorative rhythms into a more old school tradition bears a fruitful combination, as of water and the spirit transforms and a high pitched drilling groove takes the tracks in control. signalists flavour!

sensation/clear was phantasys momentous fiftieth release, and the first studio transmission from daniel avery since his acclaimed lp, drone logic. now, both tracks are remixed in distinctive fashion by two fellow outliers on the fringes of psychedelic, experimental techno. acclaimed producer and eaux records mastermind rrose commits a typically ambitious and sonically experimental redux to sensation. while retaining much of the originals hypnotic, almost celestial groove, its atmospherics are transformed into something altogether more alien and overwhelming, culminating in an epic yet utterly earned conclusion of visceral noise. abdulla rashim meanwhile guides the sound of clear into deeper territory still, engineering an initially unassuming remix that ultimately reveals layer upon layer of painstaking detail. polyrhythmic bass lines interlock expertly from the beginning, gradually unfolding while never relenting.

liam blackburn s transformative night of visions lp as ancestral voices forged a bold new sonic identity for an influential figure on the electronic music scene. from his groundbreaking work as indigo and onto the success of akkord s hybrid electronic melting pot (with synkro), the quest for forward movement is intrinsic to everything liam produces. to further celebrate the night of visions lp release, we asked some of our favourite producers to reconstruct some of night of visions highlights in their own style. each remixer chose their own track from night of visions to work with. the first name on our remix list was swedish producer and northern electronics label head - abdulla rashim. choosing invocations , his remix focuses on the hypnotic power of the original, turning the tune into a golden loop with subtle kick drum stabs, sweeping percussion and a dangling tension that hangs through the entire 7.33 minutes. asc & sam kdc chose feathered serpent and using just touches of the original tune have masterfully built an all new backbone that demonstrates clearly the ability of the grey area sound to work at 2 different tempo s and weld together with straight techno.

monoton ‘monotonprodukt 02’, also known as mp02, is the debut album of austrian electronic maverick konrad becker. out in 1980 it was a precursor of the minimal techno dub sound that was starting to be popular more than 15 years after. the album has been reissued by desire a couple of years ago and a new pressing is in the work. anyway it’s time to launch a remix ep with new (and not so new) producers giving crédit to the work of the austrian master. on the a side we find 3 new artists paying their dues : sergie rezza, whose debut album out on desire was critically acclaimed, abdulla rashim (abdulla rashim records / northern electronics / semantica) and also opal tapes’ boss stephen bishop own basic house. the b-side is a great megamix of the album tracks by the one and only ambient/electronica veteran scanner !

defeating apathy by creating his own world, abdulla rashims music thinks before it speaks. untangeled energy and drive breathes life into the rigid rhythmic structures, where the wild, almost primal, core illuminates the heartfelt and soulful layers within in his music. this musical contradiction between thought and letting go, acts as the base foundation in abdulla rashims music.

described in typically self deprecating manner as a vanity imprint in the classically ornery tradition, the pear growers series is a new label from chris madak, best known for his mind bendingly good output as bee mask. the first release sees material from madaks excellent spectrum spools long player when we were eating unripe pears get treated to remixes from celebrated techno artists surgeon and abdulla rashim. anyone who has heard surgeon playing the remix on his rinse fm show will agree that his unashamedly emotive breakbeat reworking of *the story of keys & locks* is arguably one of the simplest and most affecting remixes this year. complementing this, prologue and semantica artist abdulla rashim delivers a take on *unripe pears* that will resonate with anyone that has indulged in the elusive producers recent output on his own eponymous label.

journey through vivid sonic currents and states which might as well be regarded as rashims magnum opus: the 006 release on arr is a new height delivered as a mini album. the more basic and primal spirit of this release encapsulates rashims music in a way which makes total sense. bound over six tracks, they all display a different perspective of this dramatic colossus.
