the ninth release from the mainrecords shop, on its eponymously titled label comes in the form of three tracks of slick late night electro from matt star, plus a remix from perseus traxx. with well over three dozen releases under his belt in one guise or another matt star aka mattias schildger is no stranger at all to production of high quality electronic music, as this latest ep clearly displays. happily blurring boundaries between house and electro, with its tight, crisp beats the release exudes a form of stripped back and honest late night cool with basses that bubble in a way sometimes reminiscent of ed dmx, while others lend more of a chicago feel accompanied by rolling toms. synth lines and arpeggiations cut in and out of subtle modulations giving the feel of anticipation one gets while tearing along the motorways of a city, late at night, the lights of the city and other vehicles brightly darting by, streaking and reflecting across the cars windscreen. perseus traxx delivers a subtle remix that remains true to the elements of the original and while adding a booming kick and some of his own production techniques, influences and grit to the mix, shows he isnt stuck in one genre or sound.

matt star returns to mainrecords. together with his brother locke and labelboss of mainrecords, he produced two melodic technobombs, which are predestined for the big floors.but thats not all. the maintrack >gaucho< gets an heavy remix by no one less then petar dundov in his typical hypnotic melodic style. we are very pleased to hear how mainrecords developed their style this year.

mainrecords is back - stronger then ever!
we are proud to present an very talented upcoming artist from athens/greece called billy on air. growing up in a house full of music had many influences by different kinds to him. he started playing the piano at the age of 6 and that you can hear on his first production for mainrecords wich is a very aelodic and well produced hybrid between techno and trance. for his debut we got some cool remixes, the first one is from our long-time friend frank leicher who has stripped down the original to a techhouse bomb in his typical style. on the flip we present a crazy technoid remix by noone less then alex bau. his repaint uses just the essential drums of the original.

big support by cari lekebush, umek, the advent, spectre, tom hades ..

remain records 008 is all about the man behind the brand. in a string of excellent releases, axel karakasis signs the raw level ep, which boasts three exceptional tracks from the greek wild-child.

ultimately affected by this summer, remain records 007: cool water e.p. by axel karakasis aims at keeping the vibes high for the new season. this year has been exceptionally good for axel and remain records, so this release is more of a celebration signalling the third year of the label, which grows stronger by the day!this 3 track e.p. opens up with orisha on the main side, a spot on tune with a straight kick and minimal techno elements that gradually build up to embrace the main character sample. at its peak, the track makes an inspired transition into funky, laidback groove, where axel works mostly present day sounds with 90s intelligence! the second track on the side is a far cry from orisha, as let it roll does exactly that: it rolls! bassheavy throughout, it s an insane piece of work with smart cuts that give way to teasing loopy layers. this track is a burner for serious techno players!the title track on the remain side begins as a mishmash of dub groove, and a rolling bassline. midway, cool water has an extended cut that builds up with relentless sirens and its menacing bassline that seem endless. in a word: flawless!

remain 006, kudos e.p., is a 2 tracker treat coming from two artists that have become an irresistible duo to any techno dj out there. remain records proudly welcomes the advent, one of the front runners of techno, and his partner in crime, industrialyzer. their collaboration is one of the hottest things around and their work is in constant demand. apart from releasing their tracks in their respective labels, kombination research and codeworks, the advent and industrialyzer have had successful releases in labels, including drumcode, bush records, mb elektronics and many more.
on the main side, focuspocus is a pure anthem that is totally unpredictable! it is guaranteed to be the track of choice for the springsummer season and for a long time from now! a brilliantly solid track with evocative melodies spread throughout, utterly powerful cuts and kicks and absolutely dreamy loops that will get dancefloors on fire!the title track, kudos, on the remain side is equally powerful, yet so different.. a highly rhythmic track that keeps escalating until it reaches the.. boiling point! as you get into it, it becomes cheeky and playful with some ingenious pointcuts that leave you stunned for a single second until the next wave of radio-rich sounds and percussion mixture hits back! nuff said. enjoy!

axel karakasis once more unleashes his talents and demonstrates his skills in the piranha e.p. in the first track on the main side, the techno wizkid mightily combines a set of systemshaking loops and detroitfunklike piano keys that escalate into a crazy pitching, distortion not to be messed with! add to these some powerful percussion and ominus snares, together with karakasis trademark filter spins and twists and its an epic track that stands out on its own. bloody chamber alternates between nocturnal basslines, vicious subbass and high-pitched synths that are spinetingling. here, axel flirts with electro but you can always rely on him to bring in some serious groove: the result is solid, coherent and the track is something more than special!! the remain side proves equally mindblowing and. flesh eating! piranha is a stunner, adorned with aggressive drums, booming beats and odd sounds throughout the track. once again, it is axels energetic style that comes through, making this track a powerful club tool

remain 04 sees the return of the top belgian producer team, marco bailey and tom hades. the title track meteorite on the main side is certainly a sumptuous gem, accompanied by an impressive remix by deg and ployd on the remain side

axel karakasis is the main man in the groovy techno scene these days. with numerous releases on upfront labels like patterns, yin yang, omega, techhead, adult and many more he is building his impressive discography. the funky greek decided to keep the best tracks for his own imprint remain. 3 solid rocking technobombs is what to except. rolling like a train on full speed. no stops, just full speed all the way.. try to keep standing still on this bomb!
