first part of three... bangin detroit / dubtechno loaded stuff

two building up monsters with very precise production and clear mixing. these tracks will dominate the floor for sure and drive people crazy with their hypnotic style. the return of a. mochi, who made his name not only with releases on luke slater s >mote evolver< imprint, also his last kumo-release was a massive success by finding a way to combine shaky minimal grooves with the energy of clearly arranged, straight techno

new label called scott tiger comes with a split by a.mochi & tttt

label owner kenny dahl is back to eclectic limited. after 2 years of exploration in the furrow land, this vinyl is on the launch pad towards new galaxies with 3 solid and powerful techno tracks and a heavy and great remix by japanese artist a. mochi.

remixes by flug (clr, soma, sleaze), christian wunsch (polegroup, tsunami), a. mochi (figure, sleaze) and mtd (sonntag morgen) on strictly limited transparent green vinyl - no repress!

hidden recordings delivers another unique sounding and memorable four-track vinyl. yuuki sakai’s “ran tan” ep is unlimited in distinctive sounds, energy and vibe. these tracks are rare, like no other combining experimental design with controlled and well-thought out drumming. test your limits, teetering on the edge of madness as you try to decipher the dancefloor etiquette for each of these! complimenting the release is a rare and wonderfully percussive-full remix from the undeniable a mochi. a well established and respected techno vet who’s been deep in the tokyo underground for over a decade.

straight japanese killer techno !!! tight, mechanical and brutal with an underlying funk, snow monkeys is the sort of multi-faceted beast that kobayashi is known for. the rough edges are allowerd full space to create tension but the track is tempered with some brilliant, shimmering and evocative melodies that slide into the mix for just the right amount of time before subsiding into the churning groove. one of the new school of japanese techno producer, a.mochi delivers a well pitched, moody version on the flip. pacey yet measured in its progression its a version that takes the originals tension to new levels and wont be a surprise for anyone who has heard his productions / remixes for the likes of figure, cocoon and a-wave. hideo kobayashi is one of the few producers who can skip from deep or vocal house though to searing techno with ease and snow monkeys is a perfect example of what he can do when it comes ot the tougher sounds

>positivenoise< is collaboration between system 7 and british house music legend a guy called gerald who now lives in berlin, and is one of two tracks on the new system 7 >up< album that they worked on together. the original club mixs exuberant sounds and crisp beats exude an infectious feel-good quality and a bright tech confidence inspired by berlins leaner sounds - already gaining plaudits and plays for its modern club sound. the carl craig remix strips down the original, and twists and turns for the dancefloor with dubby deep techno in carls own legendary style. a.mochis remix is a darker interpretation, with a long dropdown featuring shimmering s7 trademark sounds and a breakbeat build-up.

third and final part of the massive longplayer.. fierce and dark techno weapons! berghain proof ! having built up several heavyweight releases on figure already, japanese techno magnate a. mochi stampedes onwards with primordial soup his powerful 9 track longplayer, initially split over three successive 12 records. this collection of simply overwhelming club weapons extends and expands upon some of the themes the producer already explored in his 3 previous eps for figure ringing, gyrating and pulsing with sheer technoid power is fastball, which will be included on the third part of the release. devilishly simple and yet mind-expanding all the same, this is a true underground weapon for true techno lovers. this only leaves the haunting lift-off signal of forced run, and the trance-inducing, reduced jam that is dark matter.

as one of the leading voices in japans techno and house scene, this dj, producer and live performer knows what dark textures, dirty bass lines and driving beats are all about. this ep arrives as a bit of a powerful undercover tool style installation, full of simple percussive allotments, syncopated synth bass stabs and plenty of swing. hane starts out as a pretty straightforward loop minded drum workout, but before you know it a delicately plucked synth jam ignites the mix.
