4 finest techno tracks

“he bleeds stories ep” is the first vinyl release on vraaa records, a techno label with the aim of queering-up the genre. both original tracks contains elements from projekt gestalten’s past original productions clashing with new sounds and being incorporated into a whole new context, like pieces of different stories scattered throughout the music and reconfigured into a brand new tale. each track was remixed by projects with contrasting gender identities: the heavyweight techno duo i/y, representing the masculine side and the fabulous german selector anja zaube, giving a feminine perspective. pressing on pink & black mixed vinyl.

the second vinyl release on new berlin label nemorous records is again by anja zaube, a rising star of the techno underground renown for her sophisticated soundscapes that form a backdrop to intelligent, dark techno sets.

nemorous records is rooted in a techno tradition, albeit eager to grow in all different kind of directions, thus touching genres as diverse as industrial, experimental or even metal. the label is run by veteran dj (and newcoming producer) anja zaube and markus grotmann, who recently started to dj under the dim_light moniker. they both share a powerful vision of the label s overall sonic and visual aesthetic. nemorous records output will be on analog media (vinyl, tape) first and foremost, with digital availability maybe later. the main focus will be on new or lesser known artists in whom both strongly believe, on vinyl format complemented by remixes from more established artists. the first issue is by anja zaube, backed with a remix by jan grebenstein.

the sylvan structure ep is a debut for anja zaube and het at the same time. the sound of this untitled 4-track ep is driven by the vision of deep-dark sonical forests: a 1is taking the dancer from the floor to a far away soundscape. on a 2 anja experiments on the ambient side of sound. raising and boosting until it all sheds. b 1 is definitely located on a forest glade, where you can find the hope, that is needed. the glitchy sound of b 2 together with its’ catchy main pattern is combining abstraction with groove.
