swedish producer hans berg returns to pooledmusics techno-focused sister imprint montage with another collection of uniquely esoteric techno. known for previous work on kant and collaborations with johanna knutsson, berg debuted on the label in 2015 with the field ep. his second outing once again provides another showcase for his intriguing rhythmic sensibilities and pleasingly askew take on the classic techno sound palette. the ep is completed by another heads-down burner of a remix from silvershower, aka label boss ian pooley.

the third release on pooledmusics techno-focused sister imprint montage welcomes back silvershower, revisiting the debut release of ian pooley’s techno alias on its 20th anniversary. the original ice fractions 1 ep arrived on plus 8 records when richie hawtin & john aquqavivas legendary label was at the height of its powers, and showcased a tougher edge to pooleys productions. two decades later pooley is still maintaining his high standards, revisiting and updating past work in the form of reissues & remixes and issuing fresh original material such as his recent turakina ep on pooledmusic and the return of silvershower last year. which marked montages launch this new edition of the first ice fractions 12inch supplies the two original lead tracks and an updated 2016 remix of each by pooley himself, satisfying both those aiming for the vintage 1996 techno sound, and those looking for a punchy update for modern techno cathedrals.

nine tracks that further expand on alessandros interpretation of ghoulish body music. alessandro adriani has become a trusted source for all kinds of beyond-the-grave minimal synth, industrial and coldwave delights.aside from his work in releasing forgotten gems and up to the minute synth incantations, adriani has also been quietly issuing out his own music as well. primarily this has taken the shape of newclear waves, having surfaced on split tapes and 7inches on mannequin as well as an album on desire back in 2012.

it’s not easy to create something that sounds epic and yet doesn’t veer off into cliche-riddled pathos, which is why the latest release from gaspard de la montagne hits so hard. it’s perfect.

crunch 22 takes a major shift from their debut album, expanding their musical breadth into a full length concept lp, based on lewis carroll’s masterpiece of psychedelic literature – “alice’s adventures in wonderland”. keeping raw groove as the core of their music, the band’s musical language now grasps some further out melodies, abstract harmonies as well as thick layers of swirling samples, influenced by musique concrète no less than it is by modern cut-n-paste turntablism.
the album is released by tel-aviv-based boutique label audio montage on an exclusive 180g limited edition vinyl, in a beautiful gatefold sleeve illustrated by street artist jack t.m.l (shahaf ram).

ian pooleys new techno label montage follows up the inaugural release from his silvershower alias by handing a label debut to hans berg, the swedish producer with previous releases for kant and known for collaborations with johanna knutsson.

closely following his highly acclaimed debut pôle ep released in fall 2013, gaspard de la montagne returns this spring with a second ep. this new stallion ep features two curiously optimistic-yet-hesitant sculptures of techno hybrids that wade near the deep end are driven by well-endowed low-end and contemplative melodies. from a genuinely open-minded generation with incredibly eclectic taste, gaspard de la montagne brings you the best of it all as a mess of inspiring further cross-pollination. a must-have!

ian pooley initiates his new techno label montage by resurrecting his silvershower alias. best known for a pair of 12inchs released on richie hawtins plus 8 in 1996 (with a further ep released on the same label in 2011), silvershower has been pooleys preferred alias for his tougher, darker records for nearly 20 years.

creaked records is proud to present pole ep - the ambitious, moody, low end laden debut of swiss native gaspard de la montagne. from the beginning to the end its clear that this three track ep was tastefully put together by a passionate bass music lover to touch others of a similar inclination

here on part 4 we have the rather wonderful isolée remix of manuel turs most of this moment, switch in his finest hour with get on downz and jimpster under his audiomontage guise with the little known but highly revered track the darkness

willie graff & tuccillo have had a steady flow of releases helping build reputation with an emphasis on quality over quantity. individually and together they have released on labels such as delusions of grandeur, third ear, 2020 vision and rebirth. most recently they have enjoyed success following the release of brilliant releases on circus company and isgud. the duo have just remixed charles websters new single and have a busy schedule of productions and remixes to fit in around their busy dj schedules (willie is resident at cielo in nyc and pachas funky room in ibiza).

while everyone is still getting down to the naughty neighbour ep, you lucky people have the follow up audiomontage nugget entitled the fun kit ep. theres no stopping the jimpster man at the moment and here we find him in finest form yet with an absolutely devastating piece of minimal, deep, jackin house...

australian producer deepchild drops the second single >no disgrace< from his new album >lifetime<, a dub heavy slab of techno soul featuring the vocals of barbados-born mc ras roni with the usual intricate programming found in all deepchild productions. on the a-side jimpster under his audiomontage guise delivers a remix he concedes to be >fucking slamming, maybe one of my best yet< combining a stripped back techno structure with chunky rolling bass and heavy soul in a devastating dancefloor weapon. deepchild s original is equally at home at london s co-op or vienna s dub club as it is rocking the floors in aus while always and forever shows more of the flavour from the album with a dose of his trademark rich melodic deepness

modern soundhack styled techhouse electrophunker !!
